Hi guys,
I've got a 2001 GT
I did a search before posting this, got various anwers... I saw that SVTTECH is on the ball with this issue as well, so I'd appreciate it if you can help me out.
I was driving today, and pulled into the gas station to pick up a drink, got back in the car started her up, drove about 10 meters, then all of a sudden the car died. When I tried to fire her up again, it didn't start, I thought maybe it was flooded, put the gas pedal to the floor, tried to start didn't start. Then I realised the THEFT light was flashing. Pushed her over,
- checked the fuse's, both for the fuel pump (since I cant' hear it prime anymore), and the fuse #34 inside the car, both look fine, I also replaced both of them to double check, and no go.
- I checked the fuel pump safety cut off switch in the back, and it was ok as well.
- Got a ride home, picked up the 2nd set of keys, tried to fire her up with the keys, and no go.
- Disconnected the battery for 10 minutes to try to reset the ecu, and didn't work either.
- When the key is left on the ON position the THEFT LIGHT flashes for a while, then it starts flashing in a pattern, Flashes 1ce, then flashes 6 times, does this over and over again. I found this thread that has the similar prolem >>> http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=686392&highlight=theft+light
- I also tried to see if there are any CEL's, but the code reader gives an ERROR and I am asuming it has something to do with the anti-theft system being triggered.
So what could this be?
