Ok so I bought my 04 3.9l in Oct of 2007 and have never had a problem. So 2 weeks ago for some reason my key or somethin got messed up so I had to have my car towed to a Ford dealership so they could re-program the key. So I figure it was just some freak accident that my key got messed up. Well I got my car back from them 2 days ago. Well today again the same thing happened and now my car wont start again! I tried my old key and the new key they made me and neither worked.

When I try to start the car the "THEFT" light flashes fast and when I originally took it in they said when that happens the key needs to be re-programed.

Like I said I have never had a problem before. Today it was fine and so I hooked my SCT Livewire back up and redownloaded one of the pre-loaded tunes and then it wouldnt start. Is the SCT causing my car/key to get messed up? Someone help please???
