It’s convenient to use keyless entry on your Ford, and it’s available on many new Ford models, like the F-150, Explorer, and Ford Bronco. Sometimes, the Tom's Ford service team in Keyport gets asked how to reset a Ford door code without a factory code.

Here, our service center explains how to reset a Ford F-150 door code without a factory code. If you run into any trouble, don’t hesitate to contact our service team.

So, back to the question, “How do you reset a Ford door code without the factory code?” It’s pretty straightforward. Just use the VIN (vehicle identification number), which is the 17-digit code unique to your vehicle, kind of like a part number or serial number. It’s usually located on the dash or on the driver’s door. It may also be in your owner’s manual, along with further instructions on how to rest your Ford door code. Once you enter your VIN by pushing the correct numbers in the right order on your door’s keypad, it should unlock, and you can continue your drives around Middletown.

Did you know that the Ford door code does more than open your door? It also does the following:

• Opens the Trunk: Your Ford door code unlocks and opens your trunk. Simply press the “Lock” button on your door’s keypad to lock your trunk.
• Arms and Disarms Your Security Alarm: If your Ford has a security system, you can use the keyless entry code to arm or turn off the alarm.
• Remembers Seat and Side Mirror Positions: The Ford door code also allows you to save your mirror and seating positions. Enter the code, and when you climb in, your seats and mirrors will automatically adapt to your preset position. If you need to change the seat or side mirror positions, just press the code numbers again to make changes.
