Ok I think I’m getting closer to figuring this out. I found an aftermarket anti theft module and found it’s reset button. I reset it which worked. I then disconnected and pulled out it’s box. The anti theft light is still blinking and giving code 1:6. Still has no spark aswell, tested the coil...

Wouldn’t be suprised if it’s confused, voltage isn’t low because it cranks. Would a dealer installed alarm show up on the window sticker? I found it in the back while cleaning it

That does give some extra info. I knew I had code 1:6 but didn’t fully know what it meant. Now I know what the eecv, transceiver etc is. I just tried to connect my dumber scanner to it and when I turned the key the car alarm turned on. Whenever the battery is connected it goes off now. This is...

Do I need to worry about unplugging battery or any wait time? I had a vw you had to be religious with stuff like that

Update kinda: finally when through and cleaned the inside to try and get some history on this thing. Both seats have a yellow plug unplugged underneath, from what I’ve looked up it may be side airbags or heated seats. I’m leaning on airbags since the lights on. I have no communication with the...

Any good way on draining the tank? I’m not familiar with fords. Is all the pats stuff in the column?

It does crank but not in that video, I made the video to show the gauge cluster and you can hear the power locks. I can make another of it cranking If that help. I pulled a wire off the coil and there’s no spark going from the coil to the wire. Wiring looks ok that I can see, i probed is he...

Also, there is no spark. Not sure if pats cuts spark. Here is a link of the whole process, from putting in the key to when the code flashes

I went out this morning and the starters free, still is flashing obviously, I left the battery connected with the key near hoping it’d figure itself out. I tried to scan it with a BlueDriver but it won’t connect. The light turns on but it thinks the vehicle is off. When I turn the key to start...

Good to know, that’s not an issue since I pulled the relay assuming the gas is junk. Guess I got to crawl under and start smacking the starter

Battery is from another vehicle, a 650cca at 12.6v

Before I describe the issue keep in mind I just got it and it’s been parked 8 years non running for 5. I did all the pre start checks and finally got ready to bump the key. At first I thought the starter was frozen but I saw the anti theft light on. I learned it’s a pats system and understand...
