2023 Ford E-350 Passive Anti-Theft System
PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
Note: The system is not compatible with non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems. The use of these systems could result in engine starting problems and a loss of security protection.
Note: Prevent these objects from touching the coded key when starting your vehicle. Metallic objects, electronic devices or a second coded key on the same key chain could result in vehicle starting problems, especially if they are too close to the key when starting your vehicle. Switch the ignition off, move all objects on the key chain away from the coded key and restart your vehicle if a problem occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in your vehicle. Always take your keys and lock all doors when leaving your vehicle.
SecuriLock®
The system helps prevent the engine from starting unless you use a coded key programmed to your vehicle. Using the wrong key may prevent your vehicle from starting. A message may appear in the information display.
If you are unable to start your vehicle with a coded key, it is not operating correctly. A message may appear in the information display.
Automatic Arming
The system arms when you switch the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
The system disarms when you switch the ignition on with a coded key.
Replacement Keys
- Your vehicle may have two integrated keyhead transmitters.
- The integrated keyhead transmitter functions as a programmed ignition key that starts your vehicle.
- If your programmed transmitters or standard SecuriLock coded keys become lost or stolen and you do not have an extra coded key, you need to have your vehicle towed to an authorized dealer. You need to erase the key codes from your vehicle and program new coded keys.
- Store an extra programmed key away from your vehicle in a safe place. To purchase additional spare or replacement keys, contact an authorized dealer.
- If you have a spare key, you need to program it. See Replacing a Lost Key or Remote Control (page 44).
