I bought a used 2012 Explorer xlt from a used car lot who didn't have the code

You can get it from the dealer, or if you have two programmed keys you can retrieve the code to show up the screen. Insert the first key to the On position and wait 4 seconds, turn it to off and insert the second key to the on position and the key pad code should display.
