Turn the keys on long enough to allow the theft light to prove out.... Doing things too fast can send the module into 'anti-scan' mode and it will take a few moments to re-establish equalibrium "ftres" <fivetownsresident@gmail.com> wrote in message news:b763ebea-d860-4acb-96aa-01cb41cf6a1e@j19g200 0vbp.googlegroups.com...[color=blue] >I have a 2001 Lincoln Town Car I bought used.
