can the hood ajar switch send the car into anti theft mode? also, how do you disable the anti theft mode?

ok,so you don't have a spare key to try? as far as the hood switch goes,it's just a switch,just jumper the switch out with a piece of wire to the two terminals,so now the switch thinks the hood is closed,or if the switch is missing,twist the two wires together. normally the red theft light flashes every 2 seconds then when you turn the key on the red theft light comes on steady for 3 seconds and then it goes off,this is normal operation for the PATS Theft System,if it don't go off/stays on steady red,then you have a problem most likely with the key or the ring/antenna has broken/not reading the key. post results.
