Yes, you will need to take your rego papers and some ID into Ford. Some dealers do it for free, some charge up to $40 for looking it up on the computer. You could also try ringing ford customer care (1800 Ford Care, I think) and they may give you the details if you give them the VIN.
Other options are it may be in your owners manual, or try taking the radio out - it may be written on top. You are looking for a 4 digit code.

Check your book in the glove box for the radio code 1st up, if no good the go to your Ford dealer armed with your Vin Number and they'll give you the number. The more times you try to code it, the longer it takes to get the new code in. I was trapped like this just recently, and I had to leave the ignition on Acc for 30 mins. The punched the code in and it was all good!
