Is it possible to add an OEM keypad to the passenger door of a 2021 F150?

Ford has a wireless pad that would be suitable. It is what will be available for the 2025
Noting that the OP has a 2021 F150 Limited (which came with the factory OE hard-wired keypad), will a second wireless keypad assuredly 'play nice' with the existing keypad system?

I've no idea, just asking.

The wireless option looks promising but it’s horizontal, I’d prefer vertical like the drivers side.

Like me, you must suffer from CDO.


(CDO - it's like OCD but the letters are in alphabetical order as they should be :wink:)

It’s wireless, it will have zero effect upon the current hardwired keypad. Just think of it as a keypad version of a key fob that just locks and locks the doors

My CDO won't let me stick a keypad on the door when the driver's side is in the pillar. Heaven forbid it doesn't match.

nothing saying you can’t stick it in the same location. But yeah, it won’t look the same. It won’t match.

You’d think they would provide a vertical option to match, the F150 is the best selling pick up in America after all.

A thought, even if they made the horizontal keypad so the buttons would pop out and rotate, that would be an easy thing to do.

Generic wireless keypad will go on multiple vehicles with same design they have used for couple decades.

I zoomed in and the steering wheel is on the right side. I’m guessing the picture is a mirror image or European?
