Do you have a keyless entry? You could try to enter your vehicle using the keypad on the drivers side door, This should turn off the anti-theft security.

Haynes Manuals not Chiltons are the source I use for wiring. You local library might have one and photocopy it off.

Many Ford trucks, vans and suvs use PATs (passive
anti-theft) keys. These keys prevent someone from copying your key to a
blank and using the blank. There is a small chip in the key which the
vehicle must recognize before it will start.
PATS is Ford Motor
Company's passive anti theft system. In 1996 it started showing up on
select models of Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles. The keys for these
vehicles have a tiny radio frequency transponder imbedded in the plastic
Head. 
When you attempt to start the vehicle, the
onboard computer sends out a RF signal that is picked up by the
transponder in the key. The transponder then returns a unique RF signal
to the vehicle's computer, giving it the ok for the vehicle to start and
continue to run. This all happens in less than a second, and is
completely transparent to the vehicle operator. It is a very effective
system that does its job without the vehicle owner having to think about
it, or modify his / her usual routine.
The PATs key is used on
the following Ford family trucks and SUVS:
1998-up
F-150
1998-up Expedition
2000-up Excursion
1998-up Explorer
1998-up
Ranger
1998-up Lincoln
Navigator

Additionally,
PATs can be found on the follow Ford family cars and
mini-vans:

1997-up Crown Victoria
1999-up
Escort
2000-up Focus

Open the hood, the low pressure charging port is located close to the firewall on the passenger side of the engine compartment, there is a plastic cap on it. Remove the plastic cap from the port by turning it counterclockwise with your fingers.
