The keyless entry pad on my 2007 Lincoln MKX just quite working all of a sudden. All but one of the buttons illuminates when pressed. The auto unlock button on my key works fine. Any ideas? Thanks!

All interior light's not working ? Instrument cluster , dome light's , switch light , instrument panel , map ,reading lamps etc...... Probably not a fuse problem , more then likely the LCM - lighting control module . Do you know anything about automotive electronics ? Control modules ? DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's ?
Illuminated Entry The illuminated entry system:

• is controlled by the lighting control module.
• provides courtesy lighting upon entry to and exit from the vehicle.

The keyless entry keypad illuminates when any keyless entry keypad button is pressed, regardless of the ignition switch position. The keyless entry keypad remains illuminated for five seconds after a handle is raised or for five seconds following the last keypad button pressed. Courtesy lamps will be illuminated for 25 (±1) seconds which includes a theater lighting ramp-up time (two seconds). This time interval does not include the theater lighting ramp-down time. Courtesy lamps will be turned off before the 25 (±1)-second timeout if the ignition switch is turned to the RUN or ACC position. NOTE: When the illuminated entry feature is activated by using the keyless entry remote transmitter, the keyless entry keypad does NOT illuminate. The illuminated entry system has the following additions to accommodate the keyless entry system:

• Pressing any button on the keyless entry keypad or pressing the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry remote transmitter will activate the illuminated entry system (with theater ramp-up). When the driver door module detects a button press, it sends a signal on the J1850 communication network activating the courtesy lamps. The keypad will remain illuminated for five seconds following the illuminated entry ON signal transition or for five seconds following the last keypad button press.
• If the keyless entry keypad 7/8 and 9/0 buttons are pressed concurrently (to lock the doors) or the LOCK button on the keyless entry remote transmitter is pressed:
  • the lighting control module will turn off the lamps by sensing the all doors lock signal.
  • the driver door module will also turn OFF the keyless entry keypad illumination when the last two keyless entry keypad buttons are pressed concurrently.
  • Lamps, Courtesy Courtesy lamps can be turned on by using the panel dim switch located on the headlamp switch assembly or by opening any door. A theater lighting feature gradually increases or decreases the light intensity when switched by opening or closing a door. Courtesy lamps (controlled by the lighting control module) are activated by using the dome lamp switch (instant ON/OFF response) or when a door is ajar. The following lamps illuminate for courtesy lighting:
    • instrument panel courtesy lamps
    • front map lamps
    • rear reading lamps
    • Inspection and Verification
      
      1. Verify the customer's concern by operating the courtesy and demand lamps to duplicate the condition.
         
      1. Inspect to determine if one of the following electrical concerns apply:

      1. If inspection reveals an obvious concern that is readily serviced, correct the concern before continuing with Inspection and Verification.
         
      1. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the Rotunda New Generation Star (NGS) Tester 007-00500 or equivalent to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel to perform Data Link Diagnostics Test. If the NGS responds with NO RESPONSE/NOT EQUIPPED for the lighting control module, go to Pinpoint Test AA . If the NGS responds with NO RESPONSE/NOT EQUIPPED for the driver door module, go to Pinpoint Test AB . If the Data Link Diagnostic test is passed for the lighting control module and driver door module, retrieve continuous DTCs and execute self test diagnostics for the suspect module(s).
         
      1. If self test is passed and no DTCs are retrieved, GO to the Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.
         
      1. If DTCs are retrieved for the lighting control module, go to the Lighting Control Module (LCM) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnosis. If DTCs are retrieved for the driver door module, go to the Driver Door Module (DDM) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnostics.
         
      1. If the lighting control module cannot be accessed by the NGS tester, go to Pinpoint Test AA . If the driver door module cannot be accessed by the NGS tester, go to Pinpoint Test AB .
         
      Rotunda Service Bay Diagnostic System (SBDS®) 001-00001 may also be used to diagnose this system.
      

have you checked the glove box

You can ask the vendor for help and if you need a tool you can click here: chinasinoy.com

check the sensor under the seat and the plugin if Thats not it then check the fuse

You don't have two keys and a valet key?

Give the VIN to the dealer,and they should get you a key or factory Keyless Entry Pad Code

KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM With the keyless entry keypad, you can: • lock or unlock the vehicle doors without using the key. Your vehicle has a factory set 5 digit code that operates the keyless entry system. You can also program your own 5 digit personal entry code. The factory-set code is located: • on the owner's wallet card in the glove compartment • or at your dealer. When pressing the controls on the keyless entry keypad, press the middle of the controls to ensure a good activation. This system will disable the power door lock controls. These will not work until the vehicle is disarmed. Programming your own personal entry code To program your own code: 5. Enter factory set code (keypad will illuminate when pressed). 6. Press 1/2 control within five seconds of step 1. 7. Enter your personal 5 digit code. Enter each digit within five seconds of previous one. 8. After the code is entered, the locks will cycle, confirming that the new code has been set. Do not set a code that includes five of the same number or presents them in sequential order. Thieves can easily figure out these types of codes. Your personal code does not replace the permanent code that the dealership gave you. You can use either code to unlock your vehicle. If a second personal code is entered, the module will erase the first personal code in favor of the new code. Locks and Security 149 Locks and Security If you wish to erase your personal code, use the following instructions: 1. Enter factory set code. 2. Press 1/2 control and release. The system will now only respond to the factory set code. Anti-scan feature The anti-scan feature prevents repeated attempts at arriving at a valid key code.

1. Enter the factory set five-digit code (the keypad will illuminate when pressed).

1. Press 1/2 within five seconds of Step 1.

1. Enter the unique five-digit code.

The personal code does not substitute for the permanent factory set code. Either code can be used to access the vehicle. In addition, if a second personal code is programmed, it will simply overwrite the previous personal code. To erase a personal code, carry out the following procedure:

1. Enter factory set five-digit code.

1. Press 1/2 within five seconds of Step 1.

1. Press 7/8 and 9/0 at the same time within five seconds of Step 2.

The system will now only respond to the factory set code.

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.
