2001 windstar keypad code

[mansvoice]

Hi All....
Can you help me obtain a code for a 2001 Windstar?
I've looked behind the "stash box" under the dash and found the RKE...I've removed it in order to locate any assembelance of a 5 digit code...but no luck.
Is there anyone that has had any luck locating the default code elsewhere...or does anyone have a reference manual that would help to find the code for this vehicle??
Thanks for you help, guys!

I had the same problem when I purchased my 2001 used and it had no books or manuals .I took the vehicle to my local ford dealer and they hooked the computer to the van and got me the code for the locks.I asked nicely and they did not charge me for this service,I just explained to them that I got the van and no code was given to me and the service manager even programed a new code in the van for me also.Good luck.

I had the same issue with my '01. After several replies about the code location behind the "stash box" (I, too, removed all the labels and tried every darn combination of numbers on the thing, the only thing I managed to do was set off the theft alarm) I have given up, I just use the last two buttons to lock the doors. Dealer wants $75.00, I have not found one of those "nice" dealerships yet. (Thanks Parkway Ford!!!)
