Thanks for the pictures....FYI that is an Essex Electronics KE-1701 system.
The default Master User Code is 1-3-5-7-9, but most likely that's been changed. Regardless, you'll want to change it to your own personal code.
There should be a small red button inside the passenger side arm rest. You'll need that button to reprogram the system. You'll only have two minutes to complete the programming or you'll have to start over.
Now if you're ready to program it, here's what you do.
1. Determine what you'd like YOUR code to be. It can be 3-8 digits long, but you cannot us 555, 557 or 559. Those are restricted to locking your rig.
2. Find the red reset button.
3. Press and HOLD the reset button - you'll hear 4 rapid beeps.
4. Enter 1-1-1-9 on the keypad.- you'll hear 3 rapid beeps.
5. Within 5 SECONDS after the 3 rapid beeps, enter your personal code - you'll hear 3 rapid beeps. That's it! You're done. Try the new code and see if it works. Remember, this is a timed effort, so if you don't enter the codes within the allotted time, you'll have to go back and repeat steps 3-5. To start over, you MUST press and hold the reset button...I'll post the manual for your records tomorrow after I get back to the coach....Dennis
Thank you so much for the information. By the way what is the small button at the base of the keypad for?
