keypad light

My keypad light is out when I punch my code in. Is it a fuse or an led inside the door?

i wont :btddhorse:research the messages this is a a regular issue lights out or key pad not work at all

Hey Rob..Your a nooob here, If i ask a question I would like a educated response..not a sarcastic comment. Learn the rules of the website.

Gee, I searched under "all posts", no dead horses for this issue.



joycie, no fuse, probably the LED in the pad assembly. My 2003 manual shows a light brown wire in and black for ground, pins 2 and 5 respectively.

Open driver door take rubber bushing in door jam off you will have to cut it look for the broken wires and reattach them put rubber boot back on and done. The wires are tight and over time opening and closing the door makes them break.

When you say, "take rubber bushing in door jam off" do you mean cut the plastic tie, and remove the cover of this piece below? BTW,
sometimes (rarely) the buttons work. I test them before I put my key in the door. They always activate the interior lights (either on the 1st or 2nd button push), and pushing the last two buttons on the far right activates the "lock all doors" function (like it's supposed to). I've tried pushing hard; softly; slowly; etc. It's worked twice in the last week (of the 15 - 20 or so times I've tried).
Thanks for the help, sorry the picture is on it's side, I fixed it on my PC but it didn't load upright).
