Program Remote Start System as a MyKey(TM)
NOTE: The # MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED or the # ADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED messages that may be displayed in the message center includes
the remote start system as an additional key in the total count, depending on whether or not it was programmed as a MyKey(TM). Refer to the Check
MyKey(TM) System Status to determine if this is the case. See: Accessories and Optional Equipment/Antitheft and Alarm Systems/Testing and
Inspection/Programming and Relearning/MyKey(TM) Programming/Check MyKey(TM) System Status
NOTE: The MyKey(TM) system is not compatible with non Ford approved aftermarket remote start systems. If a Ford approved remote start system is
installed on the vehicle and it is started using the remote start, the vehicle stalls if a door is opened or if the vehicle is shifted into gear. The driver must
insert their key into the ignition lock cylinder, cycle the ignition to the ON position and drive the vehicle with the MyKey(TM) restrictions that are
programmed into their MyKey(TM). If the remote start system is a non-Ford approved system, the vehicle may not stall when a door is opened or the
vehicle is shifted into gear. If the remote start system has not been programmed as a MyKey(TM) and the driver is a MyKey(TM) driver, the driver could
possibly drive the vehicle using the remote start system as an admin key with no MyKey(TM) restrictions. To resolve this incompatibility, it is necessary
to either recycle the MyKey(TM) before the vehicle is driven or program the non-Ford approved remote start system as a MyKey(TM).
