really hope someone can help me. I have a 98 Expedition which is great and up until now have never had any trouble out of it. But it started to have a bit of a miss and saw the plug wires were bad so my husband changed the plugs and wires. Expedition was running fine. No miss. He backed out of the driveway and got to the end of the road and it died. The theft light has come on and won't go off and it will not start. He checked the fuel pump but says he is not getting any power to the fuel pump. He checked the fuel pump relay and it is fine.
Some people have said it is the antitheft system and disconnect the battery and it would reset or in 15 min the light would go off anyway. But it hasn't. Called the dealership they can't tell me anything on the phone and say I will have to bring it in. Which I understand and that makes sense but I really don't have the money for a tow bill and service charge. Even to reset the key the vehicle will have to be towed up there because they said they vehicle has to be there. Any help would really be appreciated.
