btmaldon Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Just check that the cut out switch hasn't activated. Can't remember where the reset button is, but normally in one of the footweels near the front bottom corner of the doors. There should be a flap with a button behind it. If its not that it could be a fuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FOCA Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 You may have to get a Ford main dealer or an auto locksmith to reset it/ re code it before it will start again Do you have an OBD2 code reader? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Sounds like an immobiliser fault to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mate I don't have a reader Sounds like an immobiliser fault to me.
