I hope the following text will give you a better understanding of how the system works, and hopefully answer your question.

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.


Keyless Entry Keypad Code Programming
Enter the permanent factory keyless entry keypad code.
Press the 1/2 button within five seconds to activate the programming mode. Holding the 1/2 button for more than two seconds will erase all stored customer codes. The door locks will lock, then unlock, confirming the codes are erased. The existing codes do not need to be erased to program new codes.
Enter the new five-digit keyless entry keypad code.
To associate the new code with personality position 1 or 2, press the 1/2 button within 7.5 seconds of entering the 5th digit of the new code for position 1 or 3/4 button for position 2. The door locks will lock and unlock confirming the new code is programmed.
If another code is to be programmed, begin entering the code within 7.5 seconds of the last button pressed.
After all new keyless entry codes are programmed:
Transmitters can be programmed within 7.5 seconds of the last keypad code entered.
Press keyless entry keypad buttons 7/8 and 9/0 at the same time to exit the program mode.
Wait for 7.5 seconds; the generic electronic module (GEM) will exit the program mode automatically.

The GEM module is located under the dash where the fuse panel is located. There are THREE large bulkhead style electrical connectors with a bolt in each one. There are also three smaller connectors on the side of the module. If you do manage to gain access to the module, look for a decal with FIVE numbers on it. That will be your keypad code. Hope this helps.

The absolutely free reverse vin check sites generally provide fake information. To get real information, money will have to be paid. The free searches provide fake information so they can get your email address to send spam.

Stay away from shady reverse vin check sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Not to mention you won't get a report and you won't get an answer if you try to call for a refund. Stick with a reputable reverse vin check site like http://www.reversevincheck.net that has been around since 1995.

Answer 6

I used to have a '93 sable. And I lost my keys, the nice people at the dealership had me pop my trunk. It was listed in the inside of the trunk lid, like the part that comes up. It was the 5 numbers in the middle of the carpeting of it.

Answer 7

check the trunk. i had a mercury cougar several years ago and it was in the trunk somewhere, although i can't remember exactly where it was in there since i never needed to look it up.

Answer 8

i happen to be an "idiot at a ford dealer" and i know what to look for and where to find it and what to do with it when i do find it.
do you? i don't think the ford technicians are the idiots. pay up sucker. when did being stupid not cost you money? this is no different.

besides if you really weren't an idiot you would have posted you Vin in the question somewhere

and the best part of it is that even if you somehow get educated for free and do get your code, you still gotta come pay us to do it.
get over yourself and your silly little 60 bucks...
