...one key, what should I do about this? Just disable PATS in a tune, or is there a security module for it that I can disable/cut? I heard that the SCIL module can go bad and something behind the ignition can, causing the car to go into anti theft mode. I believe I can get a updated SCIL module...
...suggestions. Whay I tried to do was what slowmkviii suggested ;http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=86194. But When I got to the scil unit my only goal was to get my anti theft light to go out so i could try to start it. Well the the battery started to run down and after...
