I'm having problems starting my girlfriends explorer. After a long time of no problems, it would not start at lunch toady. It turns over, however the idle stat is non-existent, so the car immediately dies. I can start the car by giving it a little gas, however once I take my foot of the gas it dies.
My question is regarding a possible “theft protection” system. I’m planning on taking this problem to a mechanic, however I noticed the “theft” light is blinking. Is this just a circumstance of having the door open / car in park / car not in park / key turned in come combination, or have I accidentally tripped a theft protection device that prevents the car from remaining in an idle?
I guess my question regards the possible anti-theft devices on explores. The car is an automantic and I believe is a 2001. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
