Q&A

you go wetry

Thanks wetry ...... I think I found it (the master code) ......I looked everywhere and when I lifted the back hinged door up I see a little white sticker with a five digit number on it with a little * at each end of the number......It is late here, dark and cool outside......I will try to reset it to a birth-date that I can remember.....I got locked out again today and was locked out of the house and the car since my keys were in the ignition warming up the car. I was going to be late for my meeting and everything was in the house or the car and again I could not remember the code. It was written down inside the car and inside the house but I was locked out of each and had to call husband who could remember the code. I liked to have never got a neighbor to come to the door, then I liked to have never got my husband to answer the cell phone from out of town, since it was not me calling him on the caller ID. This time I will get to choose the code, a birthday and year.......one I enjoy with the family whenever I can.....................thanks so very much for your time. God bless you.

Carol, that sounds like my kind of luck! It's gotten to where i dont remember so well myself, according to my wife!
Glad to help. It may take a couple of tries to enter your new code, just take the keys out before you try it.
Good luck with it! (GBU2)
Ps, have a spare key made if only to open the door, if it has the special type ignition key, you can still have a regular
old cheap key made to unlkock the van.
We try!

Right, thanks. Yes I have trouble with remembering little things like the old 5 digit #. I have to have an association. The other mention about taking the key out in case the car goes dead is good too.....I was at a craft show once and was packing up the van after 12 hours of working in 101 temps. and was finally getting to load up the car and leave from an area of 10,000 people at midnight (had a new helper with me that was mad because of the heat) I was packing van alone with the person as mad as heck.....and trying to do stuff in an orderly fashion, I had husband 12 states away, all of my stuff in the car (purse and phone too, since they might get stollen in the crowd) and since it was 101 degrees I had the air on and key in ignition.....well heck when I got everything all stacked up to load the car, BINGO it has locked, I did not remember the 5 digit code and called my husband (borrowing the policeman's cell phone) and he did not remember it either.....I had to call a daughter that used to have the van and wake them up ......so finally got the 5 digit code.......I wore the policeman out first.......I was ready to break the windshield since it was cracked anyway, but the pr-madonna person with me that was so very mad would have freaked out......anyway when we finally got away, the person was so irritated, she insisted on going home another way and I thought that day and night would never end.....that was Jul.4,2012 and it did it again earlier this month and then again today......I read the specs on the 1993 mercury villager and they do that way even when the parts are replaced 3 times......hmmmmm ...... so you see why I need to just use my daughter's b-day and year for my code.......when I forget that, I will stay home.......lol. Thanks for listening to my rage.......bless you

Just finished laughing, sorry, simple little things sure can go wrong in a hurry! Dont blame you for changing that code. Never thought about it but i guess you dont use it that often, so easy to forget. My bad!
Good night.
