Lost Code

[rseitzinger]

Help!! Just purchased a 2001 Navagator and I don't have the code for the keypad. I saw in the Tech Area that it's on the computer, were's the computer located on a Navagator?

Thanks

Well, I am the moderator here but have a TC and a Blackwood, not a Gator.

However, in the Wood, the PC is located on the inner firewall on the passenger side under the dash behind a removable piece of moulding. As well, in my owners book apparatus is a small either plastic or metal, cannot remember, card that has the code on it. In the TC, I have a similar card and it is also typed on a small plastic strip located on one of the trunk hinges. I never looked for a similar strip on the Wood.

Try those possibilities and get back to us if someone with a Gator has not already answered your question.

Looked through the Owner's Manual, which stated the code is on the computer. I can also take it to the Dealership to recover it which wants $75.00 :eek: ! I pulled the panel under the glove box which only covers some A/C ducting and the passenger side kick panel which has the Fuel Cut-Off switch behind it but no computer.

HELP!

OK, I will try to get my local friendly service writer to give us a hand.

By the Way, I forgot to give you the mandatory whipping. You have a key fob that should open the doors, you have a key to open the drivers door, why do you insist on using the keypad? I said above that I do not own a Gator but surely you got the key fob thingie with your vehicle and you should have gotten two. I'm trying to be a bit non-serious here but the keypad method of opening the doors/trunk etc. seems to be sort of old school and most owners I have seen post here use the key fob thingie.

You are correct sir, but when I go to the gym, park etc, I can lock the Gator and keep everything inside locked up tight including the keys as so I don't need to lug is all around!!! I got into this habit with my Eddie Bauer Explorer and old habits are hard to break!!

I will consider myself repremanded :eek:

The '01 Expedition has a blackbox directly above the brake pedal with a 5 digit # on it..
The '00 Navigator has a whitebox under the drivers side dash with the code # on it..
The '01 Navigator has a graybox under the drivers side dash, way up there with the # on it..
The '02 F250 has a blackbox behind the brake pedal, on the firewall with the # on it..

In all cases, the sticker with the number is looking right at you.

Sorry, I should not have shot the zinger, chalk it up to the current situation.

You are lucky you can lock your keys in your Gator and leave it outside. I would not care to do that here in the Atlanta area which is gaining a really bad rep for car-jacking and auto theft. Hope you get the code OK.

Thanks to all, got the code just where Steven said it would be :D

P.S. I don't leave everything in plain sight!!! And come to think of it, maybe it's a bad habit redface.gif

Cool thanks for the location of my code for keyless the dealer wanted to charge me 200 dollars to reprogram.

It's under the dash, drivers side, upper left corner on the firewall. The computer is a big box with a white sticker that has a 5 digit code. That's the factory code that can't be changed so be carefull with it.
