Intermittent 1260 code...

'98 XLT with intermittent starting problem. Sometimes it works fine, others it just won't start.

I know the code is for the anti-theft system, but is there any way around it? Can something be bypassed or eliminated to get me going again?

What is the code prefix (P, B, etc.)?

Assuming this is a P1260, the factory service manual says to repair all PATS diagnostic codes prior to troubleshooting this code.

To access the PATS codes, you will need to find a high-end scan tool that can access the PATS system.

Yes, it is a "P" code.

Thanks for the info shorod.
