I don't know what you mean by computer chip. Do you mean an add-on performance enhancer? The vehicle has an ignition control module fastened to either the rear of the engine compartment on the left fender skirt, if it is a 4.0 liter, or it is screwed to the distributer at the rear of the engine if it is a 3.0 liter. As far as a performance chip, I wouldn't think there is because an Areostar is just not something people usually try to "soup up."

How do you a hot wire 2001 Ford Windstar van without the key?
Unless you have the frequencies of the chip inside the key or very tech savvy knowledge of how to trick the computer that runs the ignition into thinking it has the correct key chip inserted, you don't. Extra chip keys are about $150.00 a piece... IF you have the original key. I don't know what the price is to re-key a Windstar ignition switch that requires a chip to start, but it isn't going to be in the neighborhood of 'cheap'.
