I read the back of the book and it says to turn the key to "on" and wait for the THEFT light to stop flashing and then remove the key for 30 seconds and then attempt to start it as normal.

If that is different than what you're referring to then please guide me to a different part of the manual.

Thanks for your help.

I wasn't trying to say, "RTFM", I was just remembering there was something in the manual about it. I can't find the procedure you're referring to in my manual, but it DOES say to use a "coded key" to "disarm" the system. If you still have a coded key, I'd try that.

But, since I've never considered defeating the PATS, I don't know what kind of interactions doing so has created.

My manual DOES say if the system malfunctions, to take the truck to the dealer.
