Re: 2000 mountaineer anti-theft

There is no way to bypass the system. Did you make sure to get the new antenna ring installed properly around the perimeter of the new key cylinder switch, and make sure to plug it all in properly? You might try another key for the vehicle if you have one and see if it starts. Maybe you have a bad transponder key.
