Help on Activation of Ford Keyless Entry Keypad

I have a Ford Keyless Entry Keypad (KB3Z-14A626-B) that I bought to program and add to my 2021 Ford to be able to open it without the key fob.
I went to my Ford dealer, they tried using their FDRS program, but at the time of entering the 48 character code, the FDRS does not seem to accept alphanumeric codes, just number ones. My dealer does not seem to know why this happens.
Anyone here with knowledge of FDRS that has an idea of what is wrong here and how to sort it out?

Thanks…

Skid Plates – What Do You Have ?

For those of you that replaced the splash guard under the engine with a skid plate , what did you go with ?
I was thinking about the Revel aluminum one. I’ve been driving some rough roads, and the plastic oil pan and plug don’t inspire confidence.
Changing the plastic pan out for a metal one will cut down on the available brands, I saw where the Revel wouldn’t work with an aftermarket pan.

But the skid plate would protect more than just the oil pan.
What one do you like and why ?

New Tire carrier

New Tire carrier
I built this with my friend to be close to the car and still have access to the backup camera. Also there is no need to relocate the license plate. If there is interest we are going to produce a couple to sell.

Seat Cover Help Bronco Sport

I have tried a few options but nothing fits. I need some links to seat covers that actually fit.
I have a 23 Big Bend sport. With the narrow headrests.
I can’t afford Katakins. But want fake leather seat covers for the front and back seats. I prefer to order on Amazon.
The back seat has a center console that pops down.
What have you found that work in the BS? Thank you

Colfax Campers

Just wanted everyone to know that Colfax Campers has the Bronco Sport kit up on their website. There was some delay, as they had to work out the nuances of the different spare tires, and cover heights.

I’ve had mine for well over a year now and it’s fantastic!

Sport on a ferry

I have officially “floated” my 2023 Badlands
by taking my Sport on the Balboa Island Ferry in Newport Beach. This small ferry has operated since 1919 and only takes 3 cars. The trip is only 2-3 minutes long. I was sitting in my car and only have a video from inside.

Who here can 3D print me something?

I need a simple spacer made. Nothing extravagant. I just can’t find anything anywhere. I’d rather pay someone in here to make me one.

Most tedious lift process

Ive done a couple of lift kits to generally know what to do. And have definitely caught on pretty quick on how to slap them on in a day and call it. But my BS was NOT like that at all, I spent a good 6 hours mangling around the strut and to line up with the spacer and strut mount. I JUST finished my driver side and have called it for the night. Was user error or was this just unreasonably tedious for some of yall too?
