You need to pull the cover off and you will find a 2 wire terminal that needs to be moved over one pin.
It worked to perfection. Thanks for taking the time and answering the question.
http://consumer.schlage.com/Service-Support/Pages/InstallationTroubleshooting.aspx#5 Why can my electronic keypad deadbolt (BE365) be unlocked without a four digit user code when I press the "Schlage" button?This is most likely due to an installation error. When the lock is assembled on the door, two steps of the installation must be followed to insure proper operation. The deadbolt must be installed in the door edge with the bolt retracted, and the gray plastic cam on the interior mounting plate, through which the flat metal driver bar passes, must be pointed down (see below). The gray plastic cam has a triangle embossed on the end opposite the driver bar which should align with a matching triangle on the orange plastic cover plate below. These instructions are also embossed on the orange plastic plate.

If the cam is improperly aligned, the lock must be disassembled to a point where, with the bolt retracted, the cam can be turned to the correct position without moving the bolt. This will require withdrawing the flat driver bar completely from the cam before turning the cam. The driver bar will then pass through the cam at a forty-five degree angle when the lock is reassembled.
Thank you very much that helped kinda freaked me out that it did not catch this until a couple of weeks. The only big questions is why does this thing not automaticaly lock after you shut the door I thought they all did really wish I knew it did'nt I would have not bought this one.
Thank you. The lock has to know when it is in the lock position via the cam switch or else it will not need a code to unlock it.
I get that this is a setting, why in the f**k would schlage even make this possible, just in case you want a front door that is totally useless?
