How to Reset Ford Door Code Without the Factory Code

There are several reasons as to why you may have to reset your Ford door code. Some of the most common circumstances reported by Polson drivers include:

  • Forgetting the door code
  • Multiple drivers resetting or forgetting the door code
  • Keypad malfunctioning

To reset your Ford F150 door code without factory codes, for example, you’ll either need to find an online generator to obtain a factory code or reach out to your Ford dealership to obtain a new one. In more recent models, the factory code may be referred to as a “five-digit master code” in your owner’s manual, but both refer to the same factory-set five-digit entry code that’s available from an authorized dealer. Once you’ve got a new code:

  1. Press the buttons numbers one and two on the keypad within 5 seconds.
  2. Enter your new personal code on the keypad within 5 seconds of completing step 1.
  3. Press buttons one and two again to confirm. The doors of your Ford should be able to lock and unlock themselves. 

Keep in mind that depending on where you bought your Ford car, truck, or SUV, there may be fees associated with receiving a new factory code. Reach out to us if you have any questions!
