Hi everyone,
Well the AU is now back on the road.
The problem was exectly as described by hankb.
The
BEM had lost contact with the
PCM and thats why I had no crank. I had to have 2 ign keys reprogramed to the
BEM then the
BEM needed a "Parameter Reset" [handshake to the PCM] The parameter reset can only be done with a proper scan tool of course.
This work was done at the local Ford dealer for total cost of $89.
Many thanks to everyone who assisted with this problem.
Interesting thought:- New ignition key from Ford $143 plus $40 for cutting. After sales key from same locksmith including cutting $90.
Both keys work fine.
