As many of you might know, I have a 98 Contour. I have successfully programmed several new keys for this car. I also understand the electronics behind the scenes.
Now, I have a 2003 Lincoln Aviator (with PATS, of course). I have made a cheap-o key without the expensive PATS chip and epoxied a PATS chip I had laying around to it. This is the same kind of PATS chip that works with the 98 Contour. I can't get the Aviator to take the new chip. I haven't tried another one yet (but I have several at my disposal thanks to Mobil SpeedPass!)
The question is this: Does anyone know of a new kind of PATS system for the 2003MY F/L/M cars?
The keys certainly look different than my '01 LS8.
My service DVD only goes to 2002. Google hasn't brought anything up, either.
Thanks,
-Chris
