Default Auto starter problems ....

Hi everyone, i have a question about my new truck since i got it whenever I am in a public parking lot it automatically starts and I think the remote for the auto starter is not working ...

My question would be, what would be my best option in solving this problem? Do I need to reprogram the auto starter or just remove it?

Thank you for your help in advance ...

Check owners manual for fuse location or other info, it won't fix the truck but will offer up better info then this old guy can, good luck.

Default Auto Starter problem update

Thank you for the update on the fuse box, I have a 5 amp fuse that I remove to prevent it from starting automatically.

A friend of mine did try to fix the problem by checking on the ford security box near the fuse box and it solved the problem of not starting automatically but now the problem is that the theft light is causing some problems.
There is a specific place like near the stop light, it always lights up and when i tried to start the truck i am having some problem.

My question, would the lights opening everytime it detects a signal would cause me problems or there is a way to bypass all of this by simple disconnecting some wires or do I need to bring it to ford to cancel any programs or just reset the module.

Hoping for your kind consideration, thank you
