Hi Folks, For some reason over the past month my door code is no longer working on my 2023 Lariat. I don't have the MFG Code but I do have 2 FOBS for the Lightning. I have tried the Swap Fob and accessory power trick, but I am either not doing it correctly or it doesn't work for this model. Any Idea on how to get this back on track? My PAAK is working fine.

Thanks for your time...

I would prioritize getting your factory code, but if I recall correctly, if you remove and then re-add your PAAK, you can then also set a new door code.

Ok.. It's generally like the videos.. FIRST: Get in the truck with BOTH FOBS and SHUT THE DOORS (I think this was my sticking point). Pull the Rubber cup bottom out of the rear most cup holder.
Put your First FOB (I Put my main one) in the HOLE at the bottom of the Cup Holder. Power on the Accessory (hit start button) and wait 5-10 secs. Power Down the Truck and pull out the first key. Put in the second fob and hit the start button again. If the gods are with you then in about 10 seconds the Factory Keypad Code will be displayed on the Dash.
Take a picture of it before it disappears and now you have it for life.

It may help recovering the master door pin if you put the fobs in the backup holder with the buttons on the fob facing toward the rear of the truck.

I had a lot of trouble adding a third fob to my Lighting until I added that step to the procedure.

Please let us know if that additional step works for you.
