Is there a fuse inside the BMS module that connects to the negative side? If so, you may have blown that fuse.
No fuse, the module is a sealed component.

Strange.. I reuploaded, let me know if that changed anything.

This what I see

Well I just went out and looked on my own truck and didn't see anything. On my last Ford truck it was the little bump on top of dash in the middle would flash a light to let you know Pats was active. if you have one now I don't know how would tell.
Going to due some research on this

ps look on your scan tool to see if there is a current status for it

Here's a screenshot of dash lights during that video, don't know why you can't see it.

Anyways, as mentionned, no Antitheft light.

Okay just looked it up. The instrument panel display will tell you if you have a PATs issue.

I just reread your OP and sounds like your going to have to get some wiring diagrams and start checking from the ignition switch on. Good luck

You're trying to fix this truck without service info and without a Ford scan tool. You have very little chance of stumbling onto the cause of your problem.

Did you try removing the negative battery terminal again and leaving it disconnected for a few minutes before reattaching it? I would try that and don't short the positive cable to the negative cable.

My thoughts, you have removed all memory by touching the battery cables together, you therefore removed the memory for the key authorization to allow a start. you can view live data PCM and BCM look for this PCM (PID: PATSENABL) You want this to read Enabled --and BCM (PID: KEYS_PROGMD) You want this to read (2), if either of these are not correct then you will have to reprogram the keys.
You will most likely need to use the Solus to do it, as you have wiped all memory from the BCM. All of those PIDs are for lost communication, shorts to grd etc, were generated, by touching the cables together.
The truck is equipped with KAM (Keep Alive Memory) so those powered modules picked it up as a short.
The Advance Trac is most likely due to the lost communication with the ABS Module, and or low battery.

Things to try.
Clear all codes and then perform Self-Test on BCM and PCM

Close Hood and All Doors, then attempt start (mainly the hood), as the PATS system might see this as a theft attempt and locking it out from a reset.

Although, I have not looked at the starter, but is it like an old school starter where you could put key to run position and use a remote start (tool) - (The push button type) , hook directly to the starter positive post and the (s) terminal from the switch, and this way you are bypassing the PATS system, at least in an old school vehicle this was the way to test if A/Theft was locking the starting out. Not sure on the Ranger, if the system will let you.

Reprogram 2 Keys using Scan Tool (The Solus) - I'm fairly certain this will fix it.

I was just about to mention you in this thread to see if you had any thoughts on this issue. I sure hope this works for the OP. ?

This.

Who in their right mind would purposefully short neg and pos together?

If you want to drain the system you disconnect the battery and hold your foot on the brake for a bit.

The fact that this dude refers to their facility as a "shop" is hilarious. It's like the lube guys at work calling themselves mechanics.

Send it to Ford. Let a professional fix it. You don't have the tools or ability to fix this truck and it's likely you'll just damage it more.

The dude doesn't even have a scan tool of his own. The only way he's following that advice is if @airline tech flys out there and fixes it himself.

I’ve notified Air Canada and they’re standing by…
