Just yesterday, picked up my new 2004 F150 STX. WOOHOO!!!

What are some suggestions to keep this thing on my driveway, and still be there in the morning... ?


On my Mustang, I simply added a switch to turn fuel pump relay (1989 under driver's seat relay) on/off, thus anit-theft switch. Is there something similar on the new F150? I know it has the factory anti-theft blinking light... but would like another backup.

p.s. It was snowy/rainy last night, so no photos (yet).

 

The inertia shutoff switch still gets power from the relay, no reason you can add your own switch there. DG/YE wire from the relay, OG/BK wire to the pump.

 

Seeing that I am brand spankin new to this... (truck stuff).
Can you help me locate that relay. Please be specific where and how to find it.
I appreaciate your help, thanks in advance.

 

Mine is behind the passenger side kick panel. You can identify the relay because it will have a reset button on it.

 

The Passive Anti Theft system already interrupts starter and fuel if the right key isn't used - not sure why you'd need to add any other starter kill?

 

PATS, so I have been told, really IS that good... and wont be needing anything extra. (Never had anything like this before, so I always added a fuel pump relay cutoff).
Thanks.

p.s. Here is the first evening on the driveway:

 

Did you get this set up? If you are parking this some place really bad, you can always take the fuel pump relay with you, it should be in the fuse panel on the passengers side.
