2002 Ford F150 Owners Manual : Correct way to Reset Anti Theft and Key Fob 

That's great! I have over 220,000 miles. I use that synthetic blend oil. Gotta take care of them and they will take care of you. 👍

Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it. I hope this helped. 👍

Thank you, sorry for the late reply.....will have more videos soon. Appreciate the comment. Have a good day.

Thanks for watching, will have more videos soon.

Try this, disconnect the battery cables and wait a few minutes, then reconnect the cables, the horn should start beeping really loud, then press and hold the alarm button under the dashboard for 3 to 5 seconds and the horn should stop beeping, then turn the key like it says in the manual and it should start. Good luck bro. Hope this helps.

Thanks for watching, I'll be making more videos soon in August.

Thank you! Hope this video helped you.

Thanks, hope this helped.

Not a bypass. Truck stopped recognizing the key (code B1600 for the PATS system not recognizing key) and went into disable mode (code p1260 for truck thinking it's being stolen and going into disable mode shutting down engine) .. it could be anything such as accidentally inserting wrong key and trying to crank.

And yes it works for us 2003 Ford F-150 owners

Good to know. Thanks for the info. 👍

I get this question alot. My truck came from the dealership with a Key FOB. I have seen After Market Key FOBs for sale at my local Auto Parts Big Chain Store but You might need to buy one from the dealership depending on the year and model. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope everything works out for you.

Need more info for your situation..whats it not doing?.if you only have a key, do you have automatic door locks and no key fob? Do you have an alarm with a kill switch but lock your doors manually with a key? If you only have a key and an alarm then there should be a small box with a red light somewhere on or under your dashboard and it should have a reset button on it....disconnect your battery cable for a few minutes and then reconnect it, then push and hold that reset button down for 3 -5 seconds and the alarm should beep. I think I have a video about it. If you need a key fob you can buy an after market one at auto zone or O'Reilly's or pep boys, and places like that .... Good luck bro with whatever problem you have with your truck...

Thanks for watching, hoped this helped you.

Cool thanks, it's been awhile. I have an editing app now so I will go back and re-watch it and edit it. Thanks for the feedback. It was one of my first few videos and I wasn't really happy with some of them. Tbh. Lol!

Ok, sorry to hear that, maybe the problem is something else...try disconnecting both battery cables, wait about 5 minutes then reconnect the cables, the alarm should start beeping, then try resetting it the way it shows in the manual ....good luck, hope you figure it out and thanks for watching.

Damn bro good luck....let's try this.....press and hold the button down for 2-3 seconds...you should hear the horn beep....then try turning the key back and forth the way I show you in this video (owners manua)l and it should start up.....it's weird that you have the red light anti theft reset button but not an alarm....basically it's a kill switch so no one can steal your truck....God bless ya man I hope you get it started and home safe.

@@DodsonDodsworthI’m having the same issue as well, it doesn’t alarm and someone tried to steal it, I already replaced the wires but the only thing is I don’t have a key fob, not sure if I have to take it to ford dealership

@@Bloodhound789 you can buy a key fob at your local auto parts store and program it yourself...did you buy the truck used and it didn't have the fob? Or did you lose the fob? My truck has an alarm but it also has a kill switch. If someone trys to steal it and cuts my alarm wires, it won't start...they sell after market universal key fobs. Good luck, hope you figure it out, sorry if this video didn't help you...

@@DodsonDodsworth I bought the truck used it’s an f150 single cab, and I’ve been trying to tackle it down yesterday, but even while in theft mode will I be able to program the fob or does it need to be taken to a more professional locksmith?

If you lost the key FOB, (transmitter) you can buy an after market key FOB and program it the way it says in the manual....I don't know why you would have a truck with an alarm system and not have a Key FOB...did you buy the truck used and didn't get the key FOB and now you can't start it?? I don't know your situation, well good luck, I hope you get the problem fixed...

That's completely my issue. Bought my truck years ago and never realized it was supposed to have a fob until stuck in pats lock

​@Dodson Dodsworth, this is my problem. I bought a used truck. Didn't have a key fob. Have had truck for a while now. Needed a new battery. Changed battery and now truck won't start.

So is there any other way to start the truck without the transmitter key fob

​@crystalchapa7529 did you ever find a fix I'm in the same situation

My truck has an alarm system with anti theft. That's why it comes with a key fob. I can automatically lock and unlock the doors with the key fob or I can lock and unlock my doors manually with the key. If someone breaks into my truck and opens the door the alarm will go off and the truck won't start. If they cut the wires to the alarm the anti theft won't let the truck start. Early model Killswitch. Came from the factory dealership that way when bought new.
