Try disconnecting your battery cables then wait about 10 minutes. The computer should reset itself. Reconnect the wires to the battery. It is normal for the theft light to blink about every 5 seconds when the ignition key is out or in the off position. This means the system is armed and working properly. Hope this helps. God bless!

1992 Ford Ranger truck, manual with 2.3 engine. It will not start. I replaced fuel pump in tank tank.

Question edited for clarity and order 'make model 'stuff'.
Question moved to model category.

Presumably, you disconnected the battery when you replaced the fuel pump? Did you reset the anti-theft immobilizer and security system?
