Hi there. I’ve been battling with a PATS issue on our 1999 2.5td Transit camper for about 3 months now, and getting absolutely nowhere! I’m hoping that someone here might just be able to help me sort it out. I’ve spent a few days searching old threads and I haven’t really found anything to match my issue.
We’ve had the vehicle towed to a couple of mechanics and auto electricians and everyone has pretty much shrugged their shoulders and told us they can’t help. Ford dealers want nothing to do it. Of course.
So, just for some background, this was an English built Squire Herald camper and it was privately imported into Australia about 15 years or so ago. We’ve owned it for about 2 1/2 years and it’s been a solid, reliable old beast, until this problem. I’ve had another 1999 VG Transit 2.5Td (I still have the carcass - 2 of them actually - and plenty of parts available) and I’m pretty sure that it didn’t have the PATS system on it.
The flash code I’m getting is 11? I haven't found any threads on here with a similar code. I’ve been through pretty much every fuse and relay on the vehicle (I’m pretty sure that the 5A PATS system fuse was blown when I first started trying to sort this 3 months ago) but the problem is not going away. There seems to be plenty of reworking of the original wiring loom under the dash, so I suspect this isn’t the first time this problem has surfaced.
If anyone has any experience with this, we’d be much obliged!
