Powercode remote start help!!!!
 

I have a 2004 F150 XLT SCrew. I have a factory installed powercode remote start. When I hold in the button to make it start, the trucks ignition turns on all of the lights turn illuminate on the dash and then..... nothing. It never tries to turn the motor over. I have scoured hundred of forums and countless google searches. I cant find an answer anywhere. I called powercode's tech support and they didnt know.. Maybe a bad circut or relay? I have noticed when I manually turn my key to the on position, my airbag light (on the dash not above the radio) never illuminates. Could this be a problem? Anyone who can help me PLEASE DO SO! Winter is just around the corner and I need this to work!! :help::help::help:

BUMP. I know there has to be someone with some knowledge of this!

Does that remote start need t bypass mod for the transponder that is in the keys

During your attempt to start your vehicle,while sitting in the truck monitor thePATS indicator,if the light is flashing rapidly then the installed by pass is not working,or the riing around the antenna behind the ignition key cyl has moved, If this is the case to confirm hold your key right next to the ignition cylinder if the vehicle starts and runs then you have a by pass concern.

This is exactly why I am a member here!! You nailed it!! Tried starting with the remote while holding my key next to the ignition and bam!! Fired right up! Now is it the antenna or the bypass? How can I figure this out?

BTW- When not holding the key next to the ignition the PATS light flashes rapidly as described. I was up under the dash before and it looks like the antenna is still wrapped around the ignition cylinder. If the PATS bypass is bad, where can I get a new one and how much?

UPDATE:

I took the steering column covers off. The antenna is still taped around the ignition cylinder per install. The PATS Bypass has a number 1L2Z19G365-AB on it.. I checked to make sure that it was connected to the powercode box. It is. No dice. Did this loose its programming? Is there a way to reprogram the bypass? If not can you buy a new one online?

I was also trying to find a new fob/remote. Mine is shot. Any suggestions?
