USING MYKEY WITH REMOTE
START SYSTEMS
Vehicles With Ford-ApprovedAftermarket Remote StartSystems
When using a Ford-approved aftermarketremote start system, the vehicle recognizesthe remote start system transmitter as anadditional admin key. It is the vehicle’sdefault setting.
When you start your vehicle with aFord-approved aftermarket remote startsystem transmitter, the system shuts thevehicle off after you open the door or shiftyour vehicle into gear. This is intentional.When you restart your vehicle, it reads thevehicle key fob status instead of theremote start system transmitter status.
With a Ford-approved aftermarket remotestart system, it is possible to program allkey fobs as MyKeys unintentionally. If thishappens, then the remote start systemtransmitter is the admin key. If you wantto have only one key fob as a MyKey, or donot want to have any MyKeys, then youneed to use your remote start systemtransmitter to clear all MyKeys. In thatcase, follow these steps:
1. Enter your vehicle and close all doors.
2. Start your vehicle using your remotestart system transmitter.
3. See Clearing All MyKeys (page 48).Follow Steps 1-3.
After clearing your MyKeys, you can createa new MyKey. See Creating a MyKey(page 47).
Note:With push-button start, you cannotprogram the remote start systemtransmitter as a MyKey. Always treat theremote start system transmitter as youwould any other admin key.
Vehicles With Non-Ford-ApprovedAftermarket Remote StartSystems
MyKey is not compatible withnon-Ford-approved aftermarket remotestart systems. If you choose to install aremote start system, see an authorizeddealer for a Ford-approved remote startsystem.
The following information may help if youchoose to install a non-Ford-approvedremote start system. The actions providedbelow do not make MyKey compatible withnon-Ford-approved remote start systems,but may help you retain some MyKeyfunctions.
When using a non-Ford-approved remotestart system, the vehicle may recognizethe remote start system as an additionaladmin key with its associated privileges. Ifyou restart the vehicle by powering it offand waiting a few seconds, and thenpowering the vehicle back on, you mayretain some MyKey functions. This actionforces your vehicle to read the vehicle keyfob instead of the remote start systemtransmitter and then uses the MyKeyassociated privileges.
Note:The MyKey system status menudisplay may include the remote start systemas an additional key in the total count ofprogrammed keys. See Checking MyKeySystem Status (page 49).
With a non-Ford-approved aftermarketremote start system, it is possible toprogram all key vehicle key fobs as MyKeysunintentionally. If this happens, then theremote start system transmitter is theadmin key. If you want to have only onevehicle key fob as a MyKey, or do not wantto have any MyKeys, then you need to useyour remote start system transmitter toclear all MyKeys. In that case, follow thesesteps:
1. Enter your vehicle and close all doors.
