You have to disable the anti-theft on a Ford Explorer through a tuning file. To sum it up, tuning is changing the paRameters the software uses to control the engine and/or transmission behavior with the goal usually being to increase performance, make the software understand how to correctly work with different parts, or add features to the car that didn't originally come with. This does not necessarily mean that tuning will shorten engine life. If done properly tuning will not leave any consequence on the engine other than improving its performance. Tuning is typically around $300-500 on the dyno with some sort of 2-3 hour time limit.

To deactivate the anti-theft system on a ford explorer use the unlock button on the remote key. Unlock the driver's door using the key and then switch the ignition switch to the on position. If that doesn't work exit the vehicle and roll up all windows, then use the key to lock the driver's door.
