For some reason the previous thread isn't allowing new postings.

Urg... and I had typed a long one.

Bottom line, I got one keyless pad on the driver's side with the van and bought 2 more.

The new ones won't program. I get the #9 key blinky thingy going but it won't take the custom code nor will the code that came with it work either. I also tried to clear out the custom code and didn't get the unlock, lock, unlock response.

What am I missing?

I recently added my first/only keypad. My understanding is that you will have to use the ignition key sequence, and reprogram ALL of your old fobs & keypads in the same session in which you program the new keypads. I can give you more, if you are missing the instructions for that programming.

I don't have that. I'd appreciate it.

OK, I sent you an image of the instruction page. I tried to add it to my above reply, but, it apparently needs to be on a server elsewhere... unless there's a way to do uploads for the forum, which I have not yet seen.

EddieZ --

The FAQ explain how to attach images and photos FYI.

http://www.fordtransitusaforum.com/faq.php?faq=vb3_reading_posting#faq_vb3_attachments

Go to TOOLS above > Reading and Posting Messages > Attachments and Images

It's pretty simple actually, but keep in mind you have to choose Reply to start the process, not Quick Reply.

PS -- Edit -- the site's quote function is not working right, this happened once before recently. TBD

Hah, now that you mention it, I HAD seen those upload and attachment gizmos a few times, but, they had not registered with me.

I uploaded it to my webpage. You can link it as you like.

Good. But, don't keep us in suspense -- did you get it worked out?

Didn't I put that in the email? #1 is on a previous page: "Make sure that you have all of the Fobs and RF keypads for this vehicle."

Since some of your keypads are attached to the vehicle, and you have 10 seconds to activate each remote device, you might need another person to help. Or not... since you don't have to be sitting behind the wheel the whole time. Run, run.

Guessing that Longboard may have some suggestions.

Airedrifter, any chance that your Transit's system is messed up? I think that was the case once before here. I don't recall who . . .

I just paired my 8th remote (a keyless pad) but forgot to re-do one of them. Yes, that one no longer worked. I re-did the process and now all eight function.
Since eight is the max the Transit can handle I'm finally done.
Four factory IKT, four keyless pads.
Why four pads?
One for the right side, so I can enter from the sidewalk when parked in the street without having to step out into traffic.
One for the rear, just a luxury so I can hop in the rear without attracting attention to pedestrians on the sidewalk.
One inside at the slider, so I can unlock and open to get out in the morning without setting off the optional perimeter alarm.
The fourth one has no real purpose, the driver's side door, but that's where it's stuck on when spec'd from the order. I'll probably use it the least, but still nice to have.

I didn't get it to work. :( Google time...

It works! Got to follow the instructions exactly. AND "keyfob" = key as there is no keyfob. What a pain. :)

The other older thread is accepting posts again FYI.


This is a continuation of the older thread:

http://www.fordtransitusaforum.com/...ussion/6785-two-extra-keys-factory-steal.html

which is not accepting new posts for some reason.

I caught that but the instructions I had never referred to an IKT. Just a fob.
