Replaced battery, upon hookup the anti theft system triggers when starting car meaning the horn beeps constantly and the lights flash. Nothing else was done to the vehicle. I took the horn fuse out so it doesn't go off but the first 5 mins or so of driving the vehicle the lights flash, drawing unwanted attention. I read that you have to unlock/lock etc your car door to stop it BUT my car locks are broke and the key doesn't open them (have to leave door unlocked 24/7 to get in :( )
Is there any way to disable this stupid anti-theft system? It's not an aftermarket alarm but the one that came stock with the vehicle.

That sounds like an aftermarket system. It will have to be shut off or removed.

You should be able to disarm it with the remote but it's possible the remote lost it's programming.
Here is some info on the system.
The keyless entry system components consist of the following:
- keyless entry remote transmitter
- Remote Anti-theft Personality (RAP) module
- driver unlock relay (if equipped with two step unlocking)
- all unlock relay
- all lock relay
- keyless entry keypad
The electronic door lock system has three main components: the remote anti-theft personality (RAP) module, attached to the rear left hand quarter panel, the three-button (hand held) keyless entry remote transmitter, and the keyless entry keypad on the driver side door.
The door locks are controlled by the RAP module through three external relays: the driver unlock relay (if equipped with two step unlocking), the all unlock relay, and the all lock relay. These relays are located in the relay box on the LH rear quarter panel.
The keyless entry remote transmitter initiates the following electronic door lock system functions:
- Unlocks the driver door (if equipped with two step unlocking).
- Unlocks all doors.
- Locks all doors.
- Enables the panic alarm.
- Issues the interior lamps on (when unlocking) and off (when locking) commands to the Generic Electric module (GEM) .
- Sounds the horn once when LOCK on keyless entry remote transmitter is pressed twice, and doors are closed.
- Sounds the horn twice when LOCK on the keyless entry remote transmitter is pressed twice, and any door or the liftgate window is ajar.
- Allows up to four keyless entry remote transmitters to be programmed.
- The order that the transmitters are programmed into the module will set the memory seat to the corresponding position when the driver door is unlocked with the transmitter.
NOTE : The remote entry features will not function when the ignition switch is in the RUN or ACC position.
The keyless entry remote transmitters are reprogrammable and must be set at the same time.
To confirm that the doors have been locked and that the anti-theft system has armed, press the LOCK button again, within five seconds of the first press. The horn will sound once if the doors have locked and all doors are closed.
To activate the panic alarm:
- Press the red PANIC button on the keyless entry remote transmitter. The horn will sound and the headlamps and exterior lamps will flash for a maximum of two minutes and 45 seconds .
To deactivate the panic alarm:
- Press the red PANIC button again on the keyless entry remote transmitter.
- Turn the ignition switch to RUN/ACC.
The keyless entry keypad can be used to unlock the driver door (if equipped with two step unlocking) or lock and unlock all the doors and the liftgate. It also lights the keypad lamp, allows one user code to be programmed and issues illuminated entry on/off requests to the GEM when locking and unlocking.
The system (permanent) entry code is located on the owners wallet card in the glove box; it is also electronically accessible by asking for the RAP KEYCODE PID on the scan tool and on the receiver assembly housing.
The receiver assembly is programmed at the factory with a five-digit entry code. A replacement receiver assembly includes a new owners code card.
To turn on the interior lamps and light all illuminated components, press any button on the keyless entry keypad.
To program a temporary access code:
- Enter the permanent code on the keyless entry keypad.
- Press the 1/2 button within 5 seconds of last digit of permanent code. (This alerts system to accept temporary code.)
- Enter alternate 5-digit code. Do not exceed 5 seconds between entering digits or between pressing the 1/2 button and entering the first digit.
If equipped with two step unlocking:
To unlock the driver door, enter the permanent factory code or enter the owner's alternate code. To unlock the passenger door(s) and liftgate, press the 3/4 button within five seconds of unlocking the driver door.
If not equipped with two step unlocking:
To unlock all the doors and the liftgate, enter the permanent factory code or enter the owner's alternate code.
To lock all doors, press the 7/8 and 9/0 buttons at the same time. (It is not necessary to enter the key code first.) This will turn off courtesy lamps.
NOTE : The doors will not lock if the vehicle is started in neutral and passed into any forward gear.
If the autolock feature is enabled, the autolock feature will activate when the ignition switch is in the RUN/ACC position, the shift control selector is passed into or through the reverse (R) position and all doors, liftgate and liftgate window are closed when the driver releases the brake pedal.
After the initial lock, all doors will automatically relock when any door is opened and then closed followed by the release of the brake pedal. However, the doors will not relock if the ignition switch is in the OFF position.
NOTE : The door ajar state will be monitored continuously for 500 ms after locking has occurred. If a door is opened again within 500 ms , the driver door will unlock.
The door may not automatically lock if the vehicle is shifted quickly into gear after starting the engine.
Autolock Enable/Disable-Using the Keypad
A manual enable/disable mode allows the autolock and memory seat features to be turned off and on; there are PIDs in RAP (auto lock and memory seat) which reflect if the feature is ON or OFF. The RAP module configuration can be used to turn the "autolock" on/off and turn the "move mem. seat w/key fob" on/off. These PIDs (AUTO LOCK and MEM SEAT) are only available on the Ford Service Function (FSF ) Card. RAP module configuration will not be available at the beginning of the 1998 model year.
To enable or disable autolock using the keyless entry keypad:
- Enter the five-digit permanent entry code into the keyless entry keypad.
- Within five seconds of entering the code, press and hold the 7/8 button on the keypad.
- Within five seconds of Step 2, and while holding the 7/8 button, press the 3/4 button on the keypad and release it.
- Within five seconds of Step 3, release the 7/8 button on the keypad.
If the autolock sound is disabled, the horn will chirp once. If the autolock feature is enabled, the horn will chirp once shortly and then sound a second time with a longer sound of the horn once the above sequence is completed.
Autolock Enable/Disable - Using the Ignition Switch
Another way to turn the autolock off/on is by following this series of steps:
- Close all doors.
- Confirm that the ignition switch is in the OFF position.
- Turn the ignition switch from OFF to RUN.
NOTE : Steps 4 through 8 must be performed within 30 seconds .
- Press the power door lock UNLOCK button three times.
- Turn the ignition switch from RUN to OFF.
- Press the power door lock UNLOCK button three times.
- Turn the ignition switch from OFF to RUN.
- Verify that the RAP module chirps the horn. This indicates that the RAP module is now in the enable/disable mode and ready to accept program changes.
- Press the power door lock UNLOCK button one time to command the RAP module to toggle the autolock/relock feature OFF.
- Press the power door lock LOCK button once to enter the command.
- Verify that the horn chirps one time to signal the RAP module confirmation of the command. There should only be one chirp indicating that autolock/relock feature has been disabled. If one chirp is heard, followed by a longer sound of the horn, the autolock/relock feature has just been enabled. Return to step 10.
- Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position to exit the enable/disable mode.
- Exit the vehicle and verify that the RAP module chirps the horn once to indicate that a feature has been changed and that autolock/relock has been disabled.
PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM
The perimeter anti-theft system consists of the following:
- driver door lock cylinder disarm switch
- passenger door lock cylinder disarm switch
- liftgate lock cylinder disarm switch
- Remote Anti-theft Personality (RAP) module
- door open warning lamp switch
- keyless entry remote transmitter
- hood switch/bracket assembly
- theft indicator
The door open warning lamp switch communicates to the remote anti-theft personality (RAP) module through the Generic Electric Module (GEM) . This input to the RAP will cause the anti-theft alarm to be sounded if the anti-theft alarm was armed.
The door disarm switches are attached to the LH, RH, and liftgate door lock cylinders. The door disarm switch must be triggered before the mechanical lock unlocks. This is to prevent the anti-theft alarm from activating when it should have been disarmed.
The RAP module controls the anti-theft system and the keyless entry system. The RAP module communicates with the GEM to request that the interior lights be turned ON/OFF with use of the keyless entry remote transmitter, and the GEM communicates to the RAP to inform when the door is opened. For module communication information, refer to Module Communication Network (Information Bus).
For additional information on the keyless entry remote transmitter, refer to keyless entry.
The perimeter alarm uses the door open warning lamp switch and hood switch. The RAP module also uses the autolock/relock feature to prevent theft of the vehicle. For additional information on the auto lock/relock system, refer to Keyless entry.
The anti-theft indicator is found on the instrument panel to the right of the RH turn signal indicator. The THEFT indicator is shared by the RAP and PATS modules. The THEFT indicator is illuminated during prearming by the RAP module position. The passive anti-theft system will flash the THEFT indicator with the key off.
