Hello to everyone!
i'm having a big problem here..the car won't start because my PATS system are activated when i turn the key, because the ECU keep storing only 1 key after i reprogram them.
Every time i erase all the keys and reprogram the first 2, Forscan/IDS tells me that everything went fine,and the car start right away;but when i turn her off and turn her back on, the PATS light flashes rapidly when you try to turn the key in the ignition,she doesn't start up anymore and the ECU shows that only 1 key is remained memorized in it.
Everything happened right after i swapped my ECU with another one i've got at home,to load a tune in it and keep it as a backup. Did the swap, tried to turn on the car, PATS light flashing and car won't start. The only thing happened when swapping is that a red plastic cover that is present inside the middle Female connector that goes to the ECU got stuck in the female one on the ECU,and i had to extract it and put it back where it was.
So,What is that keeps the ignition keys memorized in the ECU?or is it possible that some module(SJB)/receiver is failing?Or maybe some wire/connector problem?
P.s. i'm lucky enough to have 2 spare ECU at home for my car to try,and this happened with both of them;i've got 5 different keys to use,4 of them are Ford OEM and only 1 is a folding blade style one,but nothing change. An electrician did a test to the transceiver,and told me that it reads the code stored in the key correctly,so it should work.
If someone could give me an hint on what to check,would be really really appreciated. i'm at a dead spot right now..
