Disabling the anti-theft system on your 1999 Ford Mustang is a simple task that can be completed in just 8 to 10 minutes. Start by going to the driver's side door and using the physical key to unlock it and enter the vehicle. This step is crucial for the reset process. Then, turn the ignition to the on or run position without starting the engine, which should reset the anti-theft system automatically.

    I don't have a key for the Mustang since the ignition was removed. How can I bypass the anti-theft system using a screwdriver to start it, or do I need to install a new ignition switch?

    Here's a unique paraphrase of the given text:

    "Find a pre-owned '96 or '97 Crown Victoria ECM. Start by disconnecting the battery and unplugging the PATS module located under the steering column. Replace the existing ECM with the Crown Victoria one (PATS is not present on these models, although they share a similar operational system as the Mustang). Connect the new ECM, reattach the battery, and the engine should start running smoothly.
