Question
I have a used Mustang with aftermarket alarm. I had a second key and fob made at a reputable locksmith. The other day the car was starting and immediately shutting off- my thinking is "car alarm", maybe the chip went bad in this key....so, I go home and a couple hours later come back with the new spare- car runs fine.
A day or so later My son used the 'bad' original key with no problem, so that wasn't it. Then a few days later I get stuck in a parking lot, have the other key brought to me , and neither work. Car starts and immediately shuts off- alarm kill switch? How do I disable this, and is there anything I should try to fix it first?

Thank you for contacting ALARMTEK on this subject.
I am happy to announce that I have set up a web site
to deal with the FORD P.A.T.S. "No Start" issue and
explained the methods, with illustrations, to get
around this common problem many Ford vehicle owners
& shop mechanics face everyday.

Please go to the FORD PATS website/Blog and begin your
project to learn how to bypass PATS so you can
drive your vehicle again!

Good luck and if you have more relative questions
about the Ford's P.A.T.S. (Passive-Anti-Theft-System),
please be sure to use the PATS BLOG link on that
page to post it or, any other comments you want to
express.

I do hope you find it useful,
& good luck with your project.
