Combination on car keypad does not open doors

I have a 2003 Ford Taurus and when I enter the combination in the key less enrty keypad on the drivers door the doors will not unlock. The key less entry on the fob (with the key attached) does work. Is this a fuse problem?

Does the key pad on the door light up? Are there any tears in the key pad numbers? Does the key pad lock the doors?.
There are no fuses directly for the pad.. The key pad is linked directly to the RAP. module. If the locks work from the FOB the fuses for the Module are good. Chances are the pad is no good especially if it don't light up. The RAP module is above the driver side foot well, directly above the accelerator pedal . Hope this helps.

Is there a web site that i can get the code for my van for the keypad that is on the driver side door just in case i lock my keys in the car or is there somewhere on the van i can get it

Unfortunately, only the dealer can reset the combination. When I replaced the keypad on a Lincoln Mark VIII, I had to take it to the dealer for them to reset the combination code that had been in it. Fortunately, they did it without charging hourly rates.

My keys got locked inside the van . Can I use the numeric keys to open it even if I don't know the combination?

Hi,
If you don't know the combination you're not going to have much luck there.
You might have to call a locksmith to undo your door. But I would also suggest getting a duplicate key and keeping it in a safe place. The duplicate may not can be used to start the vehicle, but it can be used to open a door if this happens again.
Hope this helps... Good luck.

Help with finding keyless door pad codes and resetting

Open the trunk and up under the package tray where rear speakers mount,on the passenger side you will see the module.It will be black and have 3 connectors to it.It will have a sticker on it with a 5 digit code.It will also have a sticker on one of the trunk hindges with this code if someone has not removed it.Here is how the system works:

Keyless Entry Keypad To unlock the driver front door (20124), and disarm the anti-theft alarm control (19A366) (if equipped):
  • Enter the permanent factory code.
  • Enter the owner's alternate code.
To unlock the passenger door(s), press the 3/4 button within five seconds of unlocking the driver front door or luggage compartment door (40110) . To unlock the luggage compartment door, press the 5/6 button within five seconds of unlocking the driver or passenger door(s). To turn on the interior lamps (13776) and light all illuminated components, lift either front door handle (22404) and press any button on the keyless entry keypad (14A626) . To lock all doors, press the 7/8 and 9/0 buttons at the same time. (It is not necessary to enter the key code first.) This will turn off courtesy lamps. To program a temporary code:
  • Enter permanent code.
  • Within five seconds of pressing last button of permanent code, press 1/2 button.
  • Enter any alternate five-digit code within five seconds of pressing 1/2 button.

Key Pad Entry does not work

does the key pad light when you press a button at night? If yes, the fuse is ok.
Do you have the plastic card with the permanent code in your owner manual packet? If yes, tryit.
report back.

Keyless Entry The keyless entry keypad is hardwired to the GEM. The GEM interprets the inputs from the keyless entry keypad and then controls the associated operation. The keyless entry keypad will be illuminated for five seconds when any button is pressed. Additionally, it will request the illuminated entry feature to turn the courtesy lamps on. If a lock all doors code is entered, the illumination will turn off, as well as request the illuminated entry feature to turn off the courtesy lamps. When pressed, the keyless entry keypad supplies the ground signal to the GEM or the GEM receives a signal from the keyless entry remote transmitter. Then the GEM outputs a ground signal to the appropriate lock or unlock relay which supplies the power to the actuator to lock or unlocks all doors, including the luggage compartment. The keyless entry remote transmitter also unlocks the liftgate or activates the panic alarm by sending a signal to the GEM.
