Dealership said it couldn't be done!

This is an old thread but it is applicable to me right now so here goes. I went to see the dealer and the parts manager told me that I have to replace the entire door if I want keyless entry. My 2006 XLT SuperCab has remote entry with the FOB and I have the card with the Keyless entry system code on it. I asked for the harness and was told that Ford does not sell the harness anymore. He said if I want keyless entry I have to buy the wireless keypad for $85. I am looking on line for the harness and handle. The part number that I was given is 6L3Z-1522405-AB. I was told that both the handle and keypad are included in this part. Is that correct?

Sounds like a load of BS from your dealer. You don't need the harness, the connector should be tucked in behind the handle. A number of people have done this mod. I did this on a 2004 XLT SuperCrew. Bought the handle with/keypad and plugged it in. Took the TSB that you can find on this website to the dealer to reprogram. Some people just plug it in and it works. There are some earlier models that the dealer has to reprogram to get the keypad to work. Im not sure about the part number.
Good luck. I loved this mod! I never have to worry about locking my keys in the truck. I love it when I go camping or backpacking, just throw the keys in and lock it, dont have to worry about losing keys on the trail.

I've got a question. Did the neat little deal to my truck yesterday. Got it installed, everything was working great right until the point when i tried to unlock it with the keypad. It did nothing. It lights up, i can lock it with 7/8-9/0, but when i put my code it, it does nothing. I know i have the right code because i have the wireless keypad that the battery had died/doesn't work sometimes, but then does sometimes. Any sugguestions on where to start or do i need to take it to the dealership? Could it be that my wireless one is still near the truck and that is why it isn't working. I did disconnect the battery before i plugged it in. Let me know. Thanks!

Great thread OP....yeah the dealer also told me that you couldn't install the floor shifter in my old regular cab truck when I went in to order the parts. Didn't get half the sentence out of my mouth when the guy said "Can't be done!" Just told the guy to order the parts and paid in cash. Guess what??? Less than a week later I had a working floor shifter in my truck thanks to all the great help from the guys on this site.

So it looks like the next step is off to the dealership, with the instructions on post #49 printed in hand to have it activated. Once I get this operable, I'll pull the keypad handle and take the others down to get painted & re-install all.
Thanks!
btw, my truck's build date is April '04. 2004 XLT Supercab.
