Keyless Entry pad part # questions

I'm no expert on the keypads but it seems that most, if not all, from our era should interchange. We had the ones with chrome surrounds. It's possible to fit a later (MN12, etc.) black plastic-style, I would think. Worth investigating, anyway...sorry I can't give more definitive answers. But Paul, if the connectors are the same then it should work because that's the most important part. Worst case scenario, you'd have to rearrange some wires...no big deal.

As for the memory, it's in the keyless entry module behind the seat. Change out the module and the STOCK keypad combination changes also. Your made-up code can work on any module if you program it in, because the module allows 2 codes (one pre-determined/stock, and one custom program).

Perfect, time to order a spare!

Thank you everyone!  I'll keep you updated as to whether or not I'll have to do any repinning.

There are jumper wires inside the module that can be moved to change the factory code, but they are soldered in place... Unless you have experience desoldering components on PCBs, don't even consider it...

I use the code on both Grand Marquis that was factory on my first TC... That one used all five buttons so wear is equal... Of course both of those have remotes, so the pads are seldom used...

i took off the door panel to check at the plug and it looks alike  but im no expert  plus  ive noticed theres a black wire that looks like it should be plugged  but its not and its cut and nothing seems to be wrong (looks stock not like someone messed with it) whats the story behind this?

Don't know, but mine has that unplugged, cleanly cut black wire, too, so I guess the wire is not used/needed in our keypads

Do you have a picture of your plug? My plug is different from the one in the ebay auction

IIRC the other end doesn't have the ribs.....I haven't had my door panel off in a while.

I'm actually waiting on  a used one from a TC.  Couldn't pass it up.  We'll see what the part # is ( should be the E7 part #.


I think I am gonna order one of the new ones just to have as well;)  I'm making quite the stash of replacement parts. 

Now I just need some extra headlights and doors  :hick:
