2015-2020 Ford F150 OEM Remote Start Add On Installation Guide KN1Z-19A361-A

[@thomas5822]

This works on a 2015 f 150 xl regardless if the part said it didn’t fit. I had to use the jumper wire. Great tutorial

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Good to hear

[@hillbillyhangover]

Thank you Thank you!!!!! Your vid helped me do this today!!!! Keep them coming these vids are a tremendous help and you explain everything really well!! Thank you again!!! Also for those wondering I did this on my 2017 xl. Just use the part he says to and follow his instructions. Works perfect!!

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Glad to hear it!

[@kylemitchell96]

Just installed on my 2017, works like a charm and your instructions were perfect 👌🏻

[@kylemitchell96]

Also, if you purchase the BBFly OBD2 adapter, you need to download the driver software in order for the Forscan to recognize the device

[@jenniferporterfield1431]

How did u program it? Wont program at dealer for my 2017. Said its not right part

[@locustltz400]

Just installed it today and wanted to say thanks for this awesome video.

[@JMConstWI]

I called my Ford dealer to see if the part number worked with my 2018 F150. They told me that the part number that you have listed is for the 2019 and 2020 only. Just a heads up. But great video!!

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Wrong. It's installed in my 2015 F150, as seen in this video.

[@rebeccacline776]

Thank you for all the info and video. Works like a charm.

[@bayNetworker]

I purchased the same kit in my F150 2018 XL upgraded to power windows, but unfortunately still not working Any suggestions? Anyway thanks for the video

[@moefuggerr2970]

Or use the Ford Pass app. Works on my 2020 and my work truck just fine. Has verification, remote horn and shut off.

[@Danosore]

Thats what I use on my 2020 STX.

[@Noah_Woodard]

Doesn’t work on trucks older than 2018 or without the option.

[@timmadmudder2719]

You indicated you can get a Forscan extended license for free but did not mention where. Can you please tell me where or how to enable Forscan?

Very helpful!

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Glad it was helpful!

[@BrianGochnauer]

Other sources say that module won't work with 2017 or 2018 model year.

[@felicianoespinohyytvrbcr5326]

Do you have a video on how to connect the Obd reader to for scan I got the one from your video

[@DailyAssessments]

Great video, any idea how my factory key fob started without FORScan? I installed the perimeter plus on 2019 f150 and locked, unlocked, and locked my truck, which remote started it

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Not sure. You probably won't have the settings on the instrument cluster though???

[@jacobmichael21]

WHen I look up this part number: "KN1Z-19A361-A " It says it does not fit 2015 F150 XLT. Sends me to this part: "FT4Z-19A361-A" Which one should I buy?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

You have to use the one in the link in the description. This part was used for many Ford's and could be programmed differently depending on the application.

[@uacmspcfrost8596]

Awesome video. I bought this kit & had the dealer install. However, afterwards the activation only works from the driver’s seat inside the cab. I purchased the long range extender hoping that would fix the issue but it does not. I need a resolution. Any ideas?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It uses the factory remotes so whatever your range was before is the range of the remote starter. Could your battery in your remote be dying?

[@uacmspcfrost8596]

Actually I resolved the issue. I watched another video, come to realize that 10x on the brake in 𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘯 took it out of a stealth VALET MODE. Works flawlessly now. I’ve been waiting and racking my brain on this for almost an entire year

[@SRFDriver]

Can you make an addendum where you show how to program it using IDS? Thanks...

[@4339jk]

I added one of these a couple yrs ago and wonder what your experience has been. Sometimes it won't work even as close as 50ft. Shouldn't there be an antenna behind the glove box ? My range seems short and there's quite a delay, as much as 30 seconds. Is that normal ?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Shouldn't be a delay. Mine works very far, but it depends on interference. So in a city environment there is a lot more interference than out in the middle of nowhere.

[@robspencer7801]

Any ideas where to get these now? The Ebay link you posted says it's broken. I have a 2020 F150

[@eriksmith4791]

Can this remote start module work with FordPass to remotely start the truck via the FordPass app on my phone?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Only if you already have Ford pass remote start. This won't add it.

[@nocommonsense0]

Will you be upgrading to push to start button? I can't stand having to put a key in to start my truck. Drives me mad 😂 I want the oem setup, not those cheap add on kits. I know.... first world problems 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

I'm not going to be doing that. I think it would take a lot of work and expense, but maybe I'm wrong. Would be a cool project though.

[@iels7346]

Push buttons suck, I don't have one but my old man does, his battery or receiver is dying so the vehicle doesn't register that the key fob is in the vehicle unless he puts it up close to the button.

[@philip2045]

After installing this will the key that would have come with a Remote Start Equipped Truck work on mine?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

No. This only works with the factory remotes. You just press lock unlock lock. They actually have really good range too.

[@mrvic2004]

Great vid. I have a question though. If my truck came with the factory remote start, using this to upgrade the shock sensors, would I still need to use the forscan to program everything?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

I'm actually not sure on that one. Probably not. Are you sure you don't have shock protection already?

[@mrvic2004]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone No worries, but I'm pretty sure I don't. Checked by the peddles and nothing. Yet, checked the build sheet and it say perimeter alarm. So I'm baffled right now.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

@@mrvic2004 Perimeter alarm doesn't mean there is a shock sensor. It means if a door or hood is opened it will set off the alarm. If you have a perimeter alarm and factory remote start I'm not sure this would really benefit you unless you really need that shock sensor for some reason.

[@mrvic2004]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone I got cha. Yeah just want the added protection. Thanks again

[@Jon-hh2um]

Can you program a 4 button key with remote start button to this module and use the remote start button ?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

No.

[@raybeaver4308]

Does this module work on trucks built in Canada?

[@deivimejia7743]

Hello my question is, it comes with the remote control or I have to buy it. Because the ones the I see in ebay only has the cables and the Black box and no the control.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It is an add on system. You use the factory remote control by pressing lock, unlock, lock to start the truck

[@deivimejia7743]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone my truck is a 2020 ford f150 and does has the power windows, I upgraded to power window and I do not have the con control

[@jacobmichael21]

WHat is the part number for the bi-directional key fob kit? Can you use forscan to prgram it, too? thanks!

[@locustltz400]

He literally uses forscan..

[@alba3422]

Will this work for a 2020 f150? Ebay listing says for 15-18 in the description.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

If you click on the link in the video description, it says right in the listing 18-20 F150. They use the same part regardless.

[@tap9362]

Do you have the FORSCAN link for IOS? Thanks

[@ronsmith6233]

What is the range of this without the bi-directional antenna?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Well at least 500 feet through the walls of my house. Haven't tested it further. It's the range of your factory remote.

[@802UpNorthAdventures]

Does this work with aftermarket non OEM remote starters too?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Yes and no. The forescan programming is required but connected in aftermarket remote starter will be completely different

[@802UpNorthAdventures]

Thank you. And do I need to stil enable remote start in the BCM with forscan even if it's not a factory kit? I used an aftermarket one @@JackofAllMasterofNone

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It just depends on the brand of remote start kit you use

[@802UpNorthAdventures]

@@JackofAllMasterofNoneOkay thanks. So I had a remote start installed ah and it works but climate controls are not working. Do I need to enable remote start in both the BCM and the IPC to get the climate control screen on the dash or can I just enable the climate remote settings in the IPC only? I’m new to FORSCAN and don’t want to screw anything up. 2017 XL truck STX.

[@jenniferporterfield1431]

So can anyone confirm this DOES work on a 2017!? I just took to dealer (i installed it myself), for them to turn on/program, and they spent 3 hours trying to get it to work, charged me 200 bucks and said its not the correct part.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

That's embarrassing on the dealers part. You could activate it in 2 minutes with forscan yourself.

[@rhysfenech8644]

Can I upgrade to a remote start key??

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

No. It uses a different frequency and different receiver system in the truck. Different than the older trucks in which you could just use a factory remote start key

[@rhysfenech8644]

@@JackofAllMasterofNonedang man! I just got the kit in.

[@cat5tracker581]

2022 F150 does look like this. Any ideas?

[@budsdad1]

No. They connect to the APIM module behind your climate controls. The range is terriible on the ford add on modules. Mine wont reach past 40 or 50 feet. Im going to try the extended range antenna. Ill have more money in this remote start set up than just buying an aftermarket unti from 12Volt Solutions.
