- 2002 EB Explorer
It seems that I have no permissions in the 911 forum.
I have searched and all the threads I have found note a different behavior of the THEFT light.
I have a 2002 EB Explorer that is currently out of commision.
The story goes: I was sitting at a red light and suddenly it sputtered and stalled as if the fuel pump stopped working. Tried to start back and the starter wouldn't engage. Got it rolled into a parking lot and started looking around and I noticed that the behavior of the Theft light didn't change at all from the vehicle being locked to the key inserted and turned to ON or START positions.
I have seen plenty of threads where the Theft light flashes fast or something, well, this one does nothing. The same 2 sec interval blinking when the key is inserted and turned to ON or START.
Everything else works, the fuel pump does not prime and the starter does not engage.
My gut says this is related to the PATS system, possibly the transceiver, but the behavior of the light throws me off.
Any ideas?
