The module is on the drivers side, under the dash towards the left, mounted on the inside firewall. But if it is not there you will need to call the dealer with the vin number and they will look it up for you. You will need to prove the car is yours though first.

It could be on the back side, Other than that I do not know where it would be. If it is not then I would get in touch with a dealer for ford and see if they had any suggestions.

Hello,

If the security light is flashing and you have the correct key remove the negative battery cable for 30 mins and then reconnect, unlock the drivers door using the key or remote and the system should reset.

Here is a guidw that can help as well.

Please let us know what happens.

KEYLESS ENTRY KEYPAD
Enter 5-digit permanent factory entry code into keypad. This code can be found on owner's wallet card in glove box, or taped to Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) module. Within 5 seconds of pressing last button of permanent factory entry code, press 1/2 button on keypad. Holding 1/2 button for more than 2 seconds will erase customer code. Doors will lock and unlock to confirm code has been erased. Within 5 seconds of holding 1/2 button, enter a new 5-digit customer code into keyless entry keypad. Doors will lock and unlock to confirm programming has been successful

Within 5 seconds of pressing last button of permanent factory entry code, press 1/2 button on keypad. Holding 1/2 button for more than 2 seconds will erase customer code. Doors will lock and unlock to confirm code has been erased. Within 5 seconds of holding 1/2 button, enter a new 5-digit customer code into keyless entry keypad. Doors will lock and unlock to confirm programming has been successful
