USING MYKEY WITH REMOTE
START SYSTEMS
Vehicles With Ford-Approved
Aftermarket Remote Start Systems
When using a Ford-approved aftermarket
remote start system, the vehicle recognizes
the remote start system transmitter as an
additional admin key. It is the vehicle
’s
default setting.
When you start your vehicle with a
Ford-approved aftermarket remote start
system transmitter, the system shuts the
vehicle off after you open the door or shift
your vehicle into gear. This is intentional.
When you restart your vehicle, it reads the
vehicle key fob status instead of the remote
start system transmitter status. With a Ford-approved aftermarket remote
start system, it is possible to program all key
fobs as MyKeys unintentionally. If this
happens, then the remote start system
transmitter is the admin key. If you want to
have only one key fob as a MyKey, or do not
want to have any MyKeys, then you need to
use your remote start system transmitter to
clear all MyKeys. In that case, follow these
steps:
1. Enter your vehicle and close all doors.
2.
Start your vehicle using your remote start
system transmitter.
3. See Clearing All MyKeys (page 56).
Follow Steps 1-3.
After clearing your MyKeys, you can create
a new MyKey. See Creating a MyKey (page
55
).
Note: With push-button start, you cannot
program the remote start system transmitter
as a MyKey. Always treat the remote start
system transmitter as you would any other
admin key. Vehicles With Non-Ford-Approved
Aftermarket Remote Start Systems
MyKey is not compatible with
non-Ford-approved aftermarket remote start
systems. If you choose to install a remote
start system, see an authorized dealer for a
Ford-approved remote start system.
The following information may help if you
choose to install a non-Ford-approved
remote start system. The actions provided
below do not make MyKey compatible with
non-Ford-approved remote start systems,
but may help you retain some MyKey
functions.
When using a non-Ford-approved remote
start system, the vehicle may recognize the
remote start system as an additional admin
key with its associated privileges. If you
restart the vehicle by powering it off and
waiting a few seconds, and then powering
the vehicle back on, you may retain some
MyKey functions. This action forces your
vehicle to read the vehicle key fob instead
of the remote start system transmitter and
then uses the MyKey associated privileges.

Note:
The MyKey system status menu
display may include the remote start system
as an additional key in the total count of
programmed keys. See Checking MyKey
System Status (page 58). With a non-Ford-approved aftermarket
remote start system, it is possible to program
all key vehicle key fobs as MyKeys
unintentionally. If this happens, then the
remote start system transmitter is the admin
key. If you want to have only one vehicle key
fob as a MyKey, or do not want to have any
MyKeys, then you need to use your remote
start system transmitter to clear all MyKeys.
In that case, follow these steps:
1. Enter your vehicle and close all doors. 2. Start your vehicle using your
non-Ford-approved remote start system
transmitter.

admin key.
