My security light blinks and car misses

3.1 v6 motor

Antonio Delgado Jan 27, 2015

Hi Joann May, I want to help you with your question, but I need more information from you. Can you please add details in the comment box?
Misses what like a misfire. Does it do it all the time or every now and then. And what happen before the light came on, thanks.
Vicki Lee Jul 09, 2015

my car does the same thing. it started immediately after i replaced ignition cylinder and relearned the new keys. it is definitely a misfire. had the codes cleared and then read. came up saying the map sensor is not getting enough voltage.

You have 2 different problems security light is most likley the ignition lock cylinder has a pickup inside and wires run down the column they always break up near cylinder, the misfire could be alot of things but check plugs,wires,and coil packs first

My 2002 f 150 has no power and is sputtering or missing and my sevice engine lite came on and started blinking

The most likely problem is you have a coil gone bad. If this is a V8 then you have a coil on each cylinder if its a V6 you have one coil pack. Now the check engine light blinking is a design of ford to let you know that you have a miss fire and to get it corrected, before catalytic convertor failure occurs

Do the plugs smell sweet? Your have 3 plugs side by side on the passengers side of the motor missing. A sweet smell would point to a head gasket leak.

Sounds like your Passlock security system went into the tamper mode. If your dashboard security light blinks when the ignition is turned on, your Passlock security system is disabling the injector module, preventing the car from start. Try this:
1- turn the ignition on and just touch the starter, without getting the motor to fire, then leave the ignition in the "on" position. The security light will blink for about 10 minutes. When the light stops blinking, turn the ignition off and leave off for 3 minutes.
2-repeat the step #1, 3 or 4 times. You will know that is fixed when you turn the ignition on and the security light does not blink, then the car will start. Make sure to stay inside the car when you're doing this, as opening the doors will trip the security tamper mode on again. Once the tamper mode is off, the car starts and opening the doors will not trip the Passlock tamper mode.
