Theft Indicator; Automatic Arming; Automatic Disarming; Replacement Keys - Ford 2003 Thunderbird Owner's Manual

Note: Large metallic objects, electronic devices that are used to
purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second coded key on the same
key chain may cause vehicle starting issues. You need to prevent these
objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. These
objects will not cause damage to the coded key, but may cause a
momentary issue if they are too close to the key when starting the
engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition off, remove all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine.

Theft indicator

seconds to indicate normal system functionality.
If a problem occurs with the SecuriLock

the vehicle.

Replacement keys

If your keys are lost or stolen and you don't have an extra coded key,
you will need to have your vehicle towed to a dealership. The key codes
need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys will need to be
programmed.
