USING MYKEY WITH REMOTE START SYSTEMS
MyKey is not compatible with non-Ford-approved aftermarket remote
start systems. If you choose to install a remote start system, please see
your Ford authorized dealer for a Ford-approved remote start system .
Vehicles With Ford-approved Aftermarket Remote Start Systems
When using a Ford-approved aftermarket remote start system, the
vehicle recognizes the remote start system as an additional admin key. It
is the vehicle’s default setting. You can also program the remote start as
a MyKey. As a result, the MyKey system status menu display includes
the remote start system as an additional key in the total count of
MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED or ADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED. See
Checking MyKey System Status.
When you start your vehicle with a Ford-approved aftermarket remote
start system, the system stalls the vehicle after you open the door or
shift the vehicle into gear. This is intentional. When you restart your
vehicle, it reads your real key’s status instead of the remote start
system’s status.
As an added precaution, owners may want to program the remote start
system as a MyKey, if the MyKey driver uses the remote start fob. That
way, when the MyKey driver starts the vehicle with the remote start
system, the MyKey restrictions remain active.
With a Ford-approved aftermarket remote start system, it is possible to
program all real keys as MyKeys unintentionally. If this happens, then the
remote start fob is the admin key. If you want to have only one real key
as a MyKey, or do not want to have any MyKeys, then you need to use
your remote start to clear all MyKeys. In that case, follow these steps:
• Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
• Remote start the vehicle using your remote start fob.
• See Clearing All MyKeys. Follow Steps 1-3.
After clearing your MyKeys, you can create a new MyKey. See Creating
a MyKey.
