Essex Keyless Entry

[Bobby Kirk]

I have a 2006 Beaver Marquis     The system lost the code to open door while it was sitting in storage.  I have changed the
code many times since i have owned it all its life.  When I try to change the code (press button it beeps then i put in 1119
when i press the 9 it beeps like 4 times and will not accept new code) could it b the key pad??  have unpluged  to see if would 
reset.  no luck   Any help would b appreciated

Bobby, call Tri Mark and they will send you a hard reset procedure to establish a new set of codes. Their tech support # is 800 447 0344 ext 1072

[Bryan Beamon]

Wrong # it should be 800/447/0343

I got the hard reset procedure listed below from chatGPT - but buyer beware as sometimes it's wrong.

I believe I read where the system stores code in non-volatile memory. So the fact that it "lost" the code in storage sort of seems to me the keypad may have failed (memory/cpu failure). When you say you removed the connector to cycle power - did you remove the keypad on the outside or just disconnect the connector near the programming switch? I'm assuming you tried the 1 3 5 7 9 master code after you power cycled? Also, when you say there are 4 beeps after 1119 is the 4th a long beep? If so, I believe the manual indicates system error.  If you haven't removed the keypad you might take a look to see if there's wiring damage or signs of excess heating on the backside. I have no idea if the reset procedure below is valid - but since your system seems dead anyhow it probably can't hurt.

Unconfirmed!! procedure from ChatGPT

Factory Reset Procedure for Essex KE-1701:
Power Off the Keypad

Disconnect power from the KE-1701 by removing the power source.
Enter Reset Mode

While holding down the [1] and [3] keys, restore power to the keypad.
Wait for Reset Confirmation

Continue holding the keys for about 10 seconds until you hear a confirmation beep or see an LED indication (if applicable).
Release the Keys

The keypad should now be reset to its factory default settings.
Reprogram the Keypad

Since the reset erases all user codes, you’ll need to reprogram access codes as needed.

Bobby:

Can you outline what the steps were from Essex?

[Bobby Kirk]

Randy the only thing that was diffrent was after you put in code wait until beep and then put in 111 and your code again it
worked for me
