If the security system in your 2000 Ford Explorer is malfunctioning, you may need to replace it. To troubleshoot, start by rolling down a window and manually locking each door except the driver's door. After ensuring all other doors are locked and closed, use the key to lock the driver's door. Keep it locked for 30 seconds before unlocking it with the key. This process should resolve any issues with the alarm system. If the anti-theft system continues to malfunction, the problem might be with the alarm's computer.

    Can you tell me where I can find the anti-theft module in a 1999 Ford Explorer with a 4.0 engine? I want to confirm its presence because the vehicle only starts when I use starting fluid in the intake, despite having 78 pounds of fuel pressure and spark.

    Can you tell me where to find the anti-theft device on my 1999 Ford Explorer? It seems to be causing a problem as there is no pulse at the injector. How can I bypass or reset it to make the injector pulse work?

    It's a 1999 vehicle that's been customized for off-road racing. I'm having trouble with the 4.0 engine getting a signal. The cam and crank positioning sensors have already been replaced, and the inertia switch wires have been connected together. My friend and I are stuck and need assistance. The shifter has been relocated from the column to the floor. I'm not sure if this has any effect on the engine turning over when I try to start it. The fuel pressure is at 78 pounds, and I checked for injector pulse using a tail light bulb.
