Pinpoint Test B: DTC B10D7:87 Or B10D7:8F

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Large metallic objects or electronic devices on the key ring that can be used to purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second key on the same key ring as the PATS key can cause vehicle starting concerns and record DTCs under certain conditions. If a fault cannot be identified, examine the customer key ring for such objects or devices. If present, inform the customer that they need to keep these objects from touching the PATS key while starting the engine. These objects and devices cannot damage the PATS key, but can cause a momentary concern if they are too close to the key during engine start. If a concern occurs, turn the ignition switch off and restart the engine with all other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key.

NOTE: Aftermarket or dealer-installed remote start systems may adversely affect the PATS operation. Disconnect these systems before diagnosing any PATS concerns.
