I got a phone call from the dealership I traded my Escort into about 3 months after asking if I knew what the master pass code was.
I didn't challenge the salesman as to why he didn't just take it into the shop and have them pull it because they treated me good at the time.
The point of that is, I would imagine the sales staff would know the quick and easy way to get it if there were one.
I don't personally know if there is a way to retrieve that number without taking to the dealer. Its too bad you didn't negotiate that into the sale when you bought it. I know, hind site it 20 / 20.

The dealer will not cooperate with me on this. They just say that the card was there when they sold it to me. I am having problems with this dealer and will not do buisness with them again.

There is a way but you need both keys to do it. Try a locksmith, might be cheaper

It only came with one key. They would not give me another one. I'll try the fusebox and I really appreciate the responses here. If anyone else has any more ways please let me know. Thank yall

Not sure if this is still accurate, but this was an older F150

This is for an Edge, so maybe try both locations

This is the video I watched for my 2017 F-150 w/ Electronic Start. This video covers both the key and push button starts, so depending on which one your vehicle has, but this worked for me. Mine is push button start and the key compartment was found under the front cup holder, take out the rubber mat and open the small door and the key will fit in to it.


Also, I found my key card from the factory AFTER I performed this step and lo and behold, it was differently than the factory one but both work.

Go figure.


Good luck!
