Entry Keypad

The Ford Part No. is:

Description:
ACTU ASY-DR LK SW

On 08/21/07 there was 1 at McLeod Ford, Riverdale, CA 559-867-3549, they had it
in stock since 8/19/05. It is an obsolete part.

Any Ford dealer can check it on their computer system.

My trouble was that the switch was separating from the plastic housing on the
outside from keying in the numbers. I removed the screws on holding it in
without moving the switch. The screws are painted in and the housing is
probably plastic, so I couldn't move or remove the housing without breaking it
and ruining the paint. I then cut a small strip of hardwood, threaded it in
through the wires, placing it behind the switch.

Next, placed 2 stainless sheet metal screws from the outside long enough to pull
the wood against the back of the switch. I initially tightened them too tight
and the switch quit working. I gave myself the DIY cuss words, then slacked off
on the screws and it has worked since 9/07. I finished up with back silicone
resealing the switch from the outside. I have some cracks in the paint, but it
beats trying to replace the switch which is in a very small area, with a big
bunch of wires in a loose bundle.
