How to unlock a ford explorer sport trac
2005 Explorer Sport-Trac door code recovery
hey guys and girls this video is about
my 2005 ford explorer sport trac it may
be applicable to other years or models
but that's up to you to find out this
video is for you
if you've either lost forgotten or never
got the key code for your keyless entry
door entry system that looks like this
now first step make sure that keypad
actually works that every button on it
works this is easiest to do in a semi
dark environment by just pressing one
button at a time and seeing if it lights
up that will tell you that the button is
actually doing something online that
action also turns on the interior light
at least on the first button you press
once you're sure the keypad is
operational and you really just need the
code the factory set code then proceed
as follows starting on the driver's side
open your fuse panel by prying with a
screwdriver or other object showing the
area shown by the arrow and rotate it
outward you'll find a fuse number 10 is
for the airbag system this is very
important you take out this fuse and
make sure it's the right one read your
owners manual to be sure now go to the
other side and open the glovebox and
squeeze it gently at these two points so
you can rotate it forward pass the rover
stops you'll end up with something that
looks like this with the glovebox
hanging down by the floor inside you're
going to see a white box with some wires
coming out of it as shown by the arrows
unplug that connector that's the one
that controls your airbag move it out of
the way this is a very important step
just in case you got the wrong fuse then
get your head down on the floor and look
up you'll see this bolt and this one
that hold the airbag in remove those
then then reach up with the fingers of
your left hand push up the air bag from
underneath while holding it from falling
out with your right hand once you rotate
the air bag outward you'll see this
electrical connector on the back that
needs to be unplugged they say not to
handle the air bag by the edges not sure
why just don't once you get it out
you'll see this white box and these two
screws that need to be removed this is
the computer that operates your keyless
entry and when you roll it forward there
you have it
voila there's your secret code right
there in that red box well kind of hard
to see here but I blanked mine out for
obvious reasons use that code to get
into your keyless entry reassemble
everything in reverse order making sure
that the last thing you do is put that
fuse back in and that's it thanks for
watching
