I’ve watched so many of these videos, but yours, for some unexplained reason, was so much easier to follow. I think it has to do with your voice which sounds very calm and “matter of fact.” And, you don’t do a lot of unnecessary talking or over explain a simple “Click the button”

[@LUCAMTire]

Thanks It definitely is a lengthy process and i tried to cut the video down as short as possible. Get straight to the point. Happy to help. Make sure to give the video a like and to subscribe to the channel to help me out. Thanks for watching and enjoy your remote start.

[@bennionbyu]

Thanks! Worked perfectly. To get the extended Forscan program, I paid $10 for a 1 year license. Even with the software cost, it saved a ton vs the dealership.

[@LUCAMTire]

Happy to hear things turned out good. Ya the dealer here in Canada wanted way way to much money. Make sure to like the video and subscribe to the channel to help me out. Thanks for watching.

[@ihavealsbutitdoesnthaveme9939]

I paid the $10 because I didn’t want to wait for the FORScan forum admin to approve my request. I have more money than patience. 😎

[@Kirkmorris13]

I used your video to do the remote start install on my 2014 F150 XLT and it worked beautifully. I did buy a different OBDII cable. I bought the one from the Forscan site but other than that I did the same exact procedure as you did and it worked awesome. Thank you for making this video! Now if I only i could find a way to set my traction control & Advance traction control default to off when I start the truck and have the option to turn it on on the fly.

[@LUCAMTire]

You get better take off with the advance track and features turn on. Just a fyi. Only thing it will eliminate wheel spin for the most part.

[@anarchyrun8253]

Thanks for putting this together! The step by step setting up Forscan was very helpful. Some stuff has changed (didnt need to have a forum account) but it got the job done. I was able to get the new keys cut at the hardware store for $ bucks and program them myself. I was also able to connect with a bluetooth OBDII BAFX dongle I already had.

[@LUCAMTire]

Right on happy it helped

[@Superduty_59]

I just programmed 2 additional keys today for my 2015 F550. I pretty much used the same procedures as you but I only had 1 key and I used Forscan in the pats key function to program 2 addition keys without erasing the original keys. Then I used the turning the key on and off 8x to program the fob portion of the key. Now I will order my remote start antenna and the turn on the remote start function using Forscan.

If your using he trial version of forscan I would turn the module on now before your trial version expires.

[@Superduty_59]

@@wyattburp2099 I did. When you say remote kit do you mean long range antenna? All this will work even without the antenna. the antenna just gives you more range. All parts could be found on ebay for under $60 at least when I did mine last year.

Just added a third key for the r/s activation. First key on 3 seconds, second key 3 seconds then new key 3 seconds. Door locks then cycle. No longer then 10 seconds between each. It also activates other buttons on key.

[@donc9751]

Great video! Just got forscan and waiting for new keys and obdII connector to arrive as I only have 1 key fob and now I want the remote start for my 2014 f150! I might be able to handle that with the help of your video! I'm no mechanic but am tech/PC savvy so you got yourself a new subscriber and fan! Hopefully I can find the spreadsheet that shows what numbers do what functions and dont end up with 1 original key and 2 new ones that wont start my truck since it sounds like I need to delete the working key for the process but I'll back everything up 1st. Hopefully it's not hard to upload the saved profile. Thank you!

[@LUCAMTire]

I did not have to delete keys which was nice for me so I didn't need to dabble into that scenario of things. Keep in mind if you are using the trial version of forscan it is for a 30 day trail. Then payment is needed I believe. Been awhile sense I used it. If you are looking to install a OEM remote start turn on your remote start module now before trial version times out. You can program the keys later with the door-door lock function with rotating keys in the ignition.

[@donc9751]

@@LUCAMTire thanks for your reply and great tip! I went ahead and paid the $10 for the 1 year license as I figured I'm going to save hundreds on buying 2 keys and programming by dealer. After watching your video I thought I want to do the auto start too! But I already ordered 2 keys, had I not done that I could of saved money by ordering the remote start as yours came with 2 keys! Slaps forehead lol. I googled some prices for the remote oem start and found them anywhere from $75 (I thought that was suspect a bit even tho it said new oem) to over $200. Thanks for the tips and advice! I subbed your channel my 1st visit!

@@LUCAMTire Alright ! Everything went great with programming my keys! Then I saw a post on the Forscan forums by someone who said he ordered the OEM remote start antenna Ford Part DA8Z-15603-A on amazon so i ordered it for under $29 and it arrived today, in a small box like yours and in that is a genuine ford parts white box with just the antenna and everything you got but without the keys. On forscan the guy that posted said he was able to start his using his od regular 3 button key that came stock with our trucks (2014 xlt here) so, I'm hoping I will be able to use my regular keys to start it remotely. I did not have to delete any keys on my trucks system to get my keys working either. If my 3 button key does work like his to start my truck remotely, I will come back and share that info as well. Your video is a huge help! I will install my antenna soon and go from there.

Not sure to be honest. It is by turning on a module In the system. You will need to go on forscan and search your year make and model and the numbers needing to be changed. I had a guy at the dealer change it one day and didn't charge anything as it only took a minute 🙃

[@rogerbakke7535]

Hey man great vid, we did it yesterday and it’s great. You said you want to get in a “nice warm truck”. To do that you also have to enable climate control. Did you do that? Cuz ours just turns on the fan, it does not engage the heat/AC, which is partly a key feature of remote start. Where in forscan do we enable and what are the codes? Thanks for your help and have a good one!

[@LUCAMTire]

Mine is a manual dial for for fan and temp. Mine is not digital. I preset my vents and put the heat and fan speed to wear i would like it for when i start the vehicle and once the truck starts it automatically turns on

Just added a motion detector module from fairway ford to my 2014 perimeter alarm with no problem. Said I need 2 antennas then have ford program it. Since my laptop was recently hacked with ransomware I'd have to have them do it. Still waiting to hear back from them. Module on right side was never mentioned?

[@LUCAMTire]

The little module antenna I installed is for remote start. I am not sure what you are referring to about the module on the right side?

[@braydenbledsoe3252]

Any idea what the run time is or if there is a way to change it? I have a 2011 as well with the same boring gauge cluster and no LCD.

[@LUCAMTire]

The run time was 10 minutes. I believe you can change it either threw the instrument cluster or by forscan. You can also start the truck then half way between the remote start cycle you can remote start it a second time while its running and it will run for 20mins

[@LUCAMTire]

My truck had a recall for the transmission and when I received the truck back the remote start was not set to 10 minutes. It is now set to 20 or longer.

[@jengafet5893]

If I’m programming 2 new keys can I do the second one right after the first or do I need to start over with the original keys? Hopefully this makes sense

[@LUCAMTire]

I did the second by starting over going through the sequence as shown in the video. You can try it other ways if you want to try multiple ways and let us know. I did it the way the instructions told me to. You do need both primary keys to begin

Jason506 copy thanks my vehicle has no wires present I wanted to install them but had no idea where they connect to

see if there is a 2 wire connector that is plugged into the coolant jug bracket? on mine there is a 2 wire connector that plugs into the bracket of the coolant jug. it is just there. you pull it out of the connector holder that does nothing besides hold it and plug in the hood switch. if it is not there you will need to run a wire into your kick pannel passenger side. a fuse may need to be put into place if your wire is there

I was able to get remote start up and running. Mine was 0047 and I changed it to 0147. While it works to start the truck, pressing the button again does not stop it. Before I try it, do you think changing it to 0148 would fix that?

I don't know Try pressing and holding the two times remote start button once. Once press hold. Truck should shut off but you will not be able to start again by remote start untill you start it by the key then can start it by remote after that.

Do I have to program the new keys after using forscan to unlock remote start or can I do it before? Or does it matter?

I programed my keys before activating the remote start module using forscan so the truck could start and stop by the key then I programed

Im thinking you can do it either way as you are just turning on the module with forscan and then programing the keys to the truck.

[@ihavealsbutitdoesnthaveme9939]

If your OBDII has a MS/HS switch, when the pop up asked if you have the switch, click yes. Then it will prompt you to make sure it is in the MS position. If your OBDII is mislabeled like mine is, then you won’t see the additional modules come up in the configuration until you move the switch to the other position.

[@ihavealsbutitdoesnthaveme9939]

Don’t worry, you’re not going to mess anything up. Just move the switch if all the modules under the MS section of the screen didn’t populate

[@justingolden]

Did you have to install a hood pin to ground out or anything?

[@LUCAMTire]

No I already had a hood pin in place as a sensor for door open or hood open warning light. If your vehicle is not equipped with one you will need to put a hood switch in or bypass. Not sure how bypass works. Prolly just run a wire to ground from hood sensor wire. Best to put in hood switch though for safety scenarios incase working on engine and engine starts by pressing button by mistake.

[@bigwalk2840]

Do you have to get the keys cut before programming

[@LUCAMTire]

The key will not work in the ignition if it is not cut for the lock cylinder. So yes you would need your keys cut before to program using this method in the video

great job ,does this procedure work with ford explorer 2015 XLT ??

[@LUCAMTire]

I am not 100% sure. The key programming will probably be similar, but for the numbers you need to change in forscan that would be something you need to look up. You can go on the forscan forums and or find a forscan module data sheet and look up what you need to change, always best to save your settings before you change the settings in case you need to change things back.
