I noticed the other day, a SECURITY light came on for a bit with the key forward just to put windows up.
This is the kids car, with 222,000 miles. We have had the car since new in the family.
Somewhere along the line, original keys are all lost, all are aftermarket keys, simple blanks cut. Every key starts and runs the car, no security issues.
From what I read, there is a security system in this car based on the key?
I am thankful that if this is the case in my 2000, it does not work. Can this be verified? Does this car use this feature? Do I expect future issues?
We have decided to keep this car, and discard the 220,000 mile Taurus instead, so we fixed some items as of late in the quest to hit 300,000 miles. Hope the little 3.4 holds on. It has had only intake gasket as a major so far.
