Off Topic. Sorry. Disable Ford PATS key?
This may be the first truly off topic question on this site, but I couldn't resist.
I'm afraid I was down to one key and the Mrs. done lost it while I was out a town gettin my shoulder fixed. :-( 2001 Ford Sportrac; PATS ignition device. (Passive Anti Theft). Being quoted $250 to get new key on site. Anyway to disable this system? This old beast has seen better days and I can drive the Cobra a thousand miles on that kinda money! Hey - there - I'm on topic again! Perfect! |

As for the price, just shop around. It's a $20 key, and 15 minutes to program. These places (some dealers included) make it seem like a million dollar procedure. You will need two new keys though, because you need two keys to program. |
PowerSurge, Thanks a bunch. Sounds like great advice and gives me some good direction.

Yeah, I thought it was a BIG deal and went down to the key shop to get a key made and they just used one original key;)
