Security Access Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lincoln Blackwood and 2002 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Security access must be granted to erase ignition keys, enable/disable spare ignition key programming switch, or perform parameter resets for PATS module and PCM. This procedure has a 10 minute time delay prior to granting security access during which Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS) or New Generation Star (NGS) tester must remain connected to vehicle. After security access has been granted, security access command menu is displayed which offers various command options. Multiple security access commands can be executed (if necessary) prior to exiting security access command menu. Execution of all necessary security access commands prior to exiting command menu avoids performance of an additional security access procedure and associated 10 minute time delay.
Insert Ford Service Function (FSF) card into NGS tester. Turn ignition switch from LOCK to RUN position. With WDS or NGS tester connected to vehicle, enter PATS, select appropriate instrument cluster (natural gas or conventional), then select SECURITY ACCESS PROCEDURE. This procedure will take about 10 minutes to perform. After security access procedure has been completed, a new menu will be displayed with command options. Select as many functions as required before exiting this menu. Once this menu is exited, security access procedure must be performed again to perform additional commands.
