It’s a free software that communicates with your car with a USB OBDII plug
Actually I agree with all of you pro PATS people. The info provided looks pretty straight forward. And come to think of it, I have a '99 Ranger that I assume has PATS on it because it has one of those "Fat" keys. But I only have one key. The ignition switch will have to be relocated for my '54/Ranger Project because I will be using the F100 column and dash. I guess I need to relocate it to a hidden place within reach of the Ranger harness or extend (solder and heat shrink) to the '54 glove box area, so that the '99 Ranger key that has to be in the tumbler, will work as designed. I actually don't mind that "antitheft" aspect of itLOL. The 00-01 especially have things that much outweigh any PATS concerns. PATS is extremely reliable, and if you limit your searches to 96-97, good luck. It’s hard enough to find them clean, and low enough mileage without refusing 4 years of a model over something silly.
