pats

Okay I know this has been asked a ton. But I can’t get clarification for my own problem with my ranger. Its a 97 XLT super cab. 4.0 with a manual and 4x4. the other day I tilted my steering wheel up after shutting off truck. And the ‘alarm’ system went off and since then won’t reset. I don’t...

On a 120 mile round trip my 2001 3.0 4x4 started overcharging during the first 60 miles and then after sitting for an hour or so while at a VA medical appointment and en-route home, it got worse and ended up pegging (maxed out) the charging gauge about 40 or so miles into my return trip from the...

Everything is in hooked up and plumbed. All the fluids are in and i'm ready to drive! I have put a Mountaineer 5.0 and trans/transfer combo into a 2003 Ranger Edge. I need the wiring help for the PATS change over. I have the wand, the wiring between, and the unit from behind the airbag from the...

So, Monday (off all week for Christmas) I finally got around to getting my two (cheap eBay keys, bought months ago) cut and programed into my '04 Edge (first time trying this). Having only one original key I was nervous about the process, so I connected with FORscan, new key in switch, and...

Hello! More turnover drama with my 2004 3.0L v6. I changed the computer (NC exchange gave 2 keys) because its 158k and because that vehicle/lock light was flashing for months. After the replacement, engine will still silently not turn over but will shut down the heater if the heater is on. The...

Hello! More adventure in fixing my 2004 ranger. See previous posts for your torture dose. The attached picture is from the far driver's side with bottom panel removed. Do you install here? (Ham radio?) Diagram in Haynes / Chilton has only mention of "personality module". No mention of inside...

All: I'm looking for some wiring diagrams or instructions for splicing in the 'Type B' PATS module & ignition antenna into my 'TYPE E' Ranger dash harness. Anybody have some insight on this one? I haven't seen it covered in much detail in the classic swap articles. I would love to get this...

I was given a 3.0L V6 from a 99 Ranger. Included was the ECU, Engine wiring harness, and 5speed trans. (I have an under hood fuse box and wiring harness from a 98 Explorer.. Pinning appears to be close). Originally I was going to keep engine as a spare for my rebodied 2003 Ranger (has 1940 Ford...

2003 Ford Ranger Edge 3.0 Flex Fuel 2WD into 1998 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0 NON-Flex 2WD. I pulled wiring harnesses, PCM, steering column from donor 2003. Still won't run! PATS is my problem. How do I fix it? What did I miss?

Hi Y'all, Short-time lurker, first-time poster. I'm a long-term gearhead (35+ years of wrenching on American muscle, Euro vehicles from the '70s-90s, many late-model domestic cars & trucks, and various Asian makes, carbed, fuel injected, diesel, etc.) with good diagnostic skills, but I'm out...

I have a 2000 ranger 4 cylinder with no pats system, I just installed a 99 4.0 explorer engine which has pats. The last thing I need to figure out before I can start it is how to install pats. I have the complete doner, do I need to switch the complete steering column, or can I just install the...
