The problem is the anti-theft device. If the truck started you could drive it and all of a sudden the anti-theft light would blink and shut the truck down. It didn't matter if it was idling or running. I took the truck in to Ford because they said the key needed to be rechipped. They did that and when I went to pick up the truck neither key would work. It would not start. They checked it out again and reprogrammed the PCM. I was told it works fine. I took it home that night and it stalled on me 4 times. The problem was not fixed.
The only way I could get the truck to start again after it shut down was to unplug the ECU and plug it back in starting with the longest plug, then center plug and finally the shortest plug. If it was not plugged in that way then it would not start. I have found that if the truck turns over first crank then the problem is not there. If it took more than one try to turn it over then the the truck would shut down. Ford told me to bring it back in and leave it for a couple of days so they could figure out the problem. Each hour they work on it costs me $130.00, not going to happen. Any ideas as to what the problem might be?
