I would like to know if anyone in the group has any experience with Dodge/Mopar products that utilize the "SKIF" anti-theft system. The problem that I'm working with for my 2005 Dodge Neon SXT may, or may not be, related to the SKIF system. The Neon will intermittently stall after various driving conditions. The stalling never requires a restart and often resolves itself before the car comes to a complete stop. I've replaced the cam sensor after a false code appeared and I've replaced the fuel pump as the problem mimics a fuel starvation problem. My posting here is asking for experience with the security system and the role the key and/or fob plays into intermittent drive ability conditions. From what I've read so far, the SKIF system should either shut the engine down or allow it to run continuously. There doesn't seem to be any information about if the chip in the key and the SKIF system losing communications during normal driving conditions. This car was bought from a dealer that provided an aftermarket key and no fob. The car ran fine until I purchased a fob from a Dodge dealer and had the fob programmed into the PCM. If this problem is somehow related to the SKIF system, is it possible to disable it? I really don't care about the anti-theft system as car theft in our area is rare.
Any solutions that the group can provide will be greatly appreciated.
