ON cold days , Below 30 , my EXP will not start, the anti theft light flashes . I have put a hair dryer under the pass, dash side to warm up the area were the PATS module is , and after about 10/ 15 minutes, Starts right up.. Have had it to the dealer 7x for this problem, and there reply was we cant get any codes. So are they that simple if the computer cant tell them what it is they cant fix it?
Anyway after LONGGGG searching ,I found out how to test the PATS, ( 28 pages worth). replaced the pats device, and again no start when cold..
Is ANYONE knowledgeable with this Crap from ford. The PATS.
Oh and there is no bypass either...
