Default Driver Door Keypad Entry Issue

Been playing with this, but no joy. Took special order delivery of my '24 F150 Lariat in July, and did not receive the external door keypad code. Will go back to dealer for support if I can't solve it myself, but it's gonna cost me half a day to do that. Hoping someone on this forum knows the secret to getting the code. I've done the procedure (scanned the QR and watched the video) in order to read the factory door code several times, but each time, it comes up blank. No numbers. It's like the reader in the cup holder doesn't "see" the fobs in the receptacle. So, I don't know my factory delivered door code. You have to enter it first, in order to change it. Any help?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, that's in the procedure. The code is displayed on the instrument console display over the wheel. In my case, nothing shows up. The display never changes from whatever it was displaying previously, such as "press brake pedal to start".

Yep. Pull the passenger side kick panel to find the factory code on the BCM. It's hard to see so I used my phone to zoom in and take a picture of it.

Doesnt this need to be "programed" via the dealer IDS or Forscan so that the truck recognizes it?

DDED: I mis understood, thought you were adding to truck.

Awesome! Thanks for that info. Now, I just messed with the panel by pulling up on the edges... Is there a trick to removing it? Is it hinged or does it have tabs? I don't want to destroy anything. Thanks again.

I think I remember having to pull up the sill plate up first. After that I think it just pops off.

You have to pull the panel open from the footwell side. It will swing back towards the seat.

That worked, thx. Unfortunately, the BCM key code area is blank. Nothing annotated.
