Keyless entry pad. Little help please

[FLYING BUTCH]

I can find and reset the plunger to put in a new entry code for our keyless entry pad. Problem is the pad lights up but nothing happens when I press any number?? I have taken the fuse out of the line going into square "box" for the keyless entry system to reset the system but that doesn't do anything. My remote will unlock the door but the lock won't work on it. I used to be able to lock the coach using the pad but again no numbers will work on the pad.
Any ideas guys? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

You don't tell us anything about your RV and the profile doesn't either, so it's gonna be hard for anyone to help you!

My 2002 Windsor has a keyless entry and the program button was hanging down behind the radio in the center of the dash. I was able to remove the drawers below the radio and find it.

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

We have a 04 Beaver Marquie. I have all ready located the control box and cut the power to it. That is what the owners guide instructed to do to reset. Nothing happens when I do that. As I mentioned, I have done the reset plunger, got the 4 beeps but when I try to put in a new code the key board on the outside of the coach doesn't respond. It is light up and with my remote I can unlock the coach but no buttons work on the pad???

Did you see "Essex" anywhere as the manufacturer? Take a look at this link and see if it sounds like the one you have. The KE-1700 Series Keyless Entry System

When programing there are certain #'s you can not start with on my 04 Sig. It told me in the instructions what they were.

On my instructions, after you hear the 4 beeps, you have 2 minutes to enter 1 1 1 9 on the keypad. After that, you will hear 3 rapid beeps and then you have 5 seconds to enter your code. Then wait 5 seconds and you should hear 3 beeps and your new code is learned.
Otherwise, if your keys are doing nothing, the pad is probably bad. They have a 3 year warranty and the date is on the back of the unit.

The problem is the keypad will not take ANY numbers. My instructions are the same but I can't even get the first "1" to take. I was going to remove the pad but it is really stuck in the side of the coach. I tried even using the end of a screwdriver to push on the number but nothing. Like I said, the pad is lite, the plunger gives the 4 beeps and can even open the coach using the remote?? Just don't understand why none of the numbers will work? Thanks for ideas guys

I think you have a bad keypad. Find out if it is Essex and if so call tech support from the website link I gave you. They will help you troubleshoot it.

If it's the old style keypad (oval type keys), you have to peel the front decal off that surrounds the keys. There are 2 rivets under the decal that have to be drilled out to remove the unit. FYI, there's a newer type unit for sale in the classifieds right now.
I replaced mine a few months ago. The new one is much better.

Thanks for all the info guys. First time I have looked at the classified section, but couldn't find the keypad for sale? Sorry to be a pest. Just didn't find it.

Flying Butch,
I made an offer to buy the unit late last night from the classified section as my pad is also not working as it should. I didn't realize you were going to the classifieds to possibly buy it also. I mistakenly thought that you were troubleshooting it for a possible fix. Regardless, it was not my intent to make the offer to buy it out from under you so to speak.
In the best interest of fairness and goodwill, I will contact the owner of the keypad and explain the situation to him and if you want the keypad, I will defer to you instead for first choice. You can let me know via PM or publicly here. Thanks.

Now THIS is one of the things that make IRV2 so great! How many other forums have members like this that put other's needs ahead of their own!
