Check with a locksmith/keyshop. If you find a good one they can bring you upto speed on the system.
I have a spare key for mine, a non Pats key and the engine cranks but won't fire. (built 07/97) I always thought the PCM shut off the fuel with no signal from the Pats.
anyhow the local key shop here can re-do the system. May only need the Pats computer something like re-booted to except your keys again.
If you have access to Mitchell's manuals it's in there how to do it. However you have to have the password to get into the re-progam mode. May not be the correct terminology but close to the process.

Yes the Pats Transciever sits behind the instrument panel on top of the steering column and is cabled down the Pats cpu just under the PCM. (right corner of the passenger foot well. Any activity in those areas that may have knock connector loose????
Also the "data link" between the Pats cpu & PCM (blu/gry pair) has a connector under the left side of the steering column.
at the PATS cpu it's blu/red & gry/red via the gry & blu and at s281 & s282 it becomes gry/vio & blu/wht then on to the "data Link connector. confused? sure glad I'm not the mechanic, of course he has a book as where "s281 & s282 is located. still no good at contortion
Pin 3 the blk wire (at the Pats Cpu connector goes to the starting system) have to monitor that sometime to see what potential is on that led.
So it must be info on the data link and the pin 3 signal. Still nothing what's deactivated.
