Since you have an '01 you have the newer E style PATS compared to the '00 Explorer's B version. Mine was B to B so all I did was migrate the PATS module from behind the glove box (which I'm still not convinced was necessary) and use Forscan to add my keys into the Explorer's computer. @RonD or someone else would have to clarify the details on version E and how it affects you.
