Who's adding Keyless Keypad Entry and why?

[KatieB75]

I have it on my current Ford and NEVER use it. My 2017 senses the key in the car and won’t lock because the key is in the car. So, I personally wont pay to add this feature. It’s been useless and was a feature that was on my car when I bought it off of the lot.

It will lock if you lock it by using the keypad, usually pressing 8&9 at the same time.

You don't get it as a factory option because this is where they mount it. Buy it afterwards and mount it on the inside of the gas door....Genius

Dude that's brilliant!

Mine must have a computer error then, because that doesn’t work. It flashes and the dash shows that the key is in the car. Who knows!

Coule be, the vehicles I have tried it on were 2018 and 2020, I definitely understand what you are saying, as there is no point if it works like that.

Have it on my F150 it's great for locking your keys in to truck so your hunting buddy can pick you up after looking for elk for 6 hrs and your 10 miles down the mountain and not wanting to walking back to the vehicle without seeing any sign of any animals . Lol.

I'll add it only if I am 100 years old.

If anyone has the dimensions of the keypad and is looking to relocate it inside the fuel door, I took these measurements. If it can fit on the black piece on the outside of the indent, the door should still close. It may be able to hang over the indent a bit, but I’m not sure.

They are ugly but I love them. Havent taken the key out of my Ford truck for years.

I’ve always loved having the keypad so I didn’t have to go find the keys if I needed to get in a vehicle or being able to lock my keys inside the car. But there’s no shot in hell I’m giving 110 bucks to put that piece of sheet on the side of my bronco. I’ll add it after the fact and stick it in the fuel door.

The one they show in the door looks cheap, if they implement in to the B pillar like they do other Fords with the integrated touch rather than that button system then Yes

Use the actual lock button on the door and it will work,

After reading about their ‘reliability’ on the ranger forum... I’ll pass. I use the one on the F150 to lock the doors sometimes. I liked the one on my SportTrac but it was not a battery one.

The keypad dimensions are 4 5/8 long x 1 3/8 tall x 3/8 thick. Doesn't look like it will fit inside the gas door because of the recessed area.

Those that really want one can paint the housing to match your Bronco. At least it will blend in a little better than a back blob stuck on your door.
