2001 Ford Ranger Edge 3.0 anti-theft issues possible
Asked by Kstand Jan 19, 2017 at 09:53 AM about the 2001 Ford Ranger Edge 2 Door Extended Cab RWD
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
I have been having some issues with my truck starting.
Sometimes it will start right up and other times not even a
sound. First I thought it was the starter because I had oil
leaks and the starter was covered in oil. I fixed the oil leaks
and replaced the starter. Drove it with no issues yesterday
and when I tried to start it today nothing. I did notice that
when I turned the key to start it the anti-theft light WA
blinking. I know nothing about the anti-theft systems in
cars. What should I check/change out?

Thank you Jim, and you have to go to a persons garage to send a private message. You can't do it from your own garage.
That is what makes it hard. A good example is today. When I went out to go to work the car would not make a noise and the anti-theft light was blinking when I turned the key to start. When I got home today I tried the key and it started right up. Do I need to see if there are any codes in the computer or will I have to wait until it is not working to try things?
Your oil going to use it self but you having to fill it every day a your slave cylinder is bad or leaking ya , I say
You having problems with starting the truck check your relays or your gas pump is out or your clutch sen,is out, or going out, or your key relays switch is going out have a mechanic figure it out whats a figure coast 100$ +
Look starting with anti thief is the main problem re wire to a single element switch to a control were if you can have power to start your vehicle up thats all
You to send a message to how out of a garage man use the cell o man to send them a message it the text or email or call them you know that ,
Look you with the swapping motor to 98 to what ever you see it were it goes ok then , go get maybe your self a new a like motor mounts ok then the wire harn from your other follow it or get a book for it whats wrong with that know
