My car has a keypad unlock code on the door but I can't seem to work the code. There are 5 buttons, each has two numbers on it (1-2)(3-4)(5-6)(7-8)(9-0),my code is 18839 and i can't get it to work. Is there a way to reset the code or change it? or am I doing something wrong? also my trunk will not pop with the key remote. and will not unlock or lock unless I'm 5 feet from the car.. which isn't a big deal but I know they usually work from a much larger distance.
It's in owner manual. But, first you have to enter your original code and it must work. then you press the 1 button and then enter a new 5 digit code, then press the 1 button again.

Open the right/rear door. Fold the right/rear seat down. Carefully pull the trim panel where the right/rear seat belt pivot/height adjuster is housed. Once removed, pull the trim panel below that in order to expose the Vehicle Security Module (the module that controls the electronic locking system for your vehicle) that has the three electrical connectors plugged into it. The connectors are colored green, grey, and blue. On the module there is a label with the engineering number similar to 5L2T-15K602-EA. You will also see FIVE large numbers. Those FIVE large numbers are your Keyless entry keypad code. Once you know your keypad code, you can test its operation by first entering the FIVE digit keypad code to unlock the driver door, and then pressing the 3/4 button within 5 seconds to unlock ALL doors. Pressing the 5/6 button within 5 seconds after entering the code will unlock the liftgate glass. Pressing the 7/8 and 9/0 buttons simultaneously at any time will lock ALL doors. Hope this helps.
1. Enter 5-digit permanent entry code into the keyless entry keypad. 2. Within 5 seconds of pressing last button of code, press the 1/2 button. All doors will lock then unlock confirming you are in programming mode. 3. Press any button on first Keyless Remote within 5 seconds of pressing the 1/2 button. Locks will cycle to indicate succesful programming. 4. If you are programming more than one Keyless Remote (Including any exsiting remotes) Press any button on second keyless remote within 5 seconds of previous remote. Locks will cycle again to indicate succesfull programming. (If the keypad light goes out before all remotes are programmed the entire process must be repeated). 5. Press the 7/8 and the 9/0 buttons simultaneously on the keypad to exit program mode.
You will need the original factory programmed keyless entry
keypad code to program your own code. To locate the original keypad
code, open the right/rear door. Pull the on-body rubber weatherstrip
out, around the rear side of the door closure. Fold the right/rear
seat back down into the locked position to facilitate access to the
right/rear seat belt anchor. Carefully pry the upper plastic panel that
houses the height adjuster and seat belt anchor off the body taking care
not to damage the panel. Now pry the lower panel outward just far
enough to enable access to the Vehicle Security Module, where you'll see
three electrical connectors
plugged into it, colored green, gray, and blue. On the module will be a
series of digits on a label similar to 2L2T-15K602-EA. Beside those
digits are five numbers. Those five numbers are the key-less entry keypad
code. Once the original keypad code has been obtained, you will need to
enter it, press the 1/2 button within 5 seconds to activate the
programming mode. Holding the 1/2 button for more than 2 seconds after
activation will erase the the code you programmed. The existing code
will not need to be erased to program a new code. Within 5 seconds,
enter the new 5-digit keypad code. The door locks will lock and unlock to confirm the new code is programmed. Hope this helps Tim
Pretty simple really. all you need to do is enter your code into the keypad located on the vehicle (the code to unlock and lock the doors/the normal code you always use). Then press the 1/2 button on the keypad. then just press one button on the remote. Your doors should lock and unlock to let you know the programming was a success. If you are doing more then one remote press the other ones within i think 5 seconds to program that remote as well. I hope this helps and good luck.
Reinstall your own code,if the preset works and you still have the little instruction card. If not let me know,I'll look at mine and go over the service manuals
. Enter 5-digit permanent entry code into the keyless entry driver door keypad.
2. Within 5 seconds of pressing last button of code, press the 1/2 button. All doors will lock then unlock confirming you are in programming mode. 3. Press any button on first Keyless Remote within 5 seconds of pressing the 1/2 button. Locks will cycle to indicate succesful programming. 4. If you are programming more than one Keyless Remote (Including any exsiting remotes) Press any button on second keyless remote within 5 seconds of previous remote. Locks will cycle again to indicate succesfull programming. (If the keypad light goes out before all remotes are programmed the entire process must be repeated). 5. Press the 7/8 and the 9/0 buttons simultaneously on the keypad to exit program mode.

Adding and Removing remote Keypads to the Smartlock module ------------------------------ Up to four Keypads can be programmed and used with the Smartlock Remote Central locking system. If you have replaced the BEM, or new keypads are being added to the system, you will need to train the keypad codes to the module. # 1. The ignition switch should be in the Off position, with all the doors shut and Unlocked. # 2. Turn the ignition key to the ACCESSORY position and within 5 seconds, operates the rear demister switch exactly three times in quick succession. (IE. Press the switch so the Demister light turns on, then off, then back on again.) # 3. After the 5 seconds is up, the door locks will change state, to indicate that the BEM has entered keypad learn mode. NOTE : All existing keypads at this point, have been erased from memory ! # 4. Press either buttons on the keypad that is to be trained. The door locks will change state twice, to indicate that the keypad has been added to the BEM memory. # 5. Follow step 4. for each keypad that is to be added to the BEM memory. A maximum of 4 keypads can be added to the BEM memory.NOTE : You must teach all remote keypads for the Smartlock module, before proceeding. # 6. When you have taught all the remote keypads, turn the ignition to the Off position to leave the learn mode. The door locks will change state to indicate a return to normal mode. # 7. Check the function of both buttons on each keypad, to ensure that the keypad has been trained.
