Car wont start!?!?

I know with my sniper tuner you can use the tuner to force flash the pcm in case of this exact situation.... i dont think sct is capable of this but you can try calling and asking.

if your pcm is corrupt or a pats system error you dont have a choice ford is the only ones who can help you. prices is a mute point given the facts of your situation.

yea thanks for helpin me out im glad it wasnt anything serious
they said that my car has basically gone into a safe anti theft mode and the car thinks it has been stolen so it wont turn on anymore only turns on to where i can turn on my lights and music but starting the car wont work so everything is disabled until i get my keys reprogrammed
