The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitor System) doesn't have anything to do with the remote start. Please explain what you're trying to do?

The remote start/shock sensor module plugs in between the ODBII plug on the backside and the harness.

I ordered the Ford Accessory kit for remote start for my 2016 XLT. It came with two fobs and the 10 inch long black antenna and a two foot wiring harness. There is a YouTube video about 2015 Remote Start installation but there isn't anything behind my glove box like the 2015. I need to plug in the antenna and use Forscan to enable the Remote Start features. Maybe the antenna plugs into the Body Control Module?

I'm not familiar with your setup so maybe someone here can help you out.

Wondering the same. It was behind the glove box in 11-14 trucks, and now it is elsewhere. I have the two way kit I took off of my 2014, and want to install it in my '16 but I cant find the damn module! All the instructions I can find refer to the kit that plugs in to the OBD port. This is the kit that plugs in to the TPMS module with a Y cable. I know it is compatable with my '16, just dont know where the module is.

I bought the service manual and it says the TPMS module is in the front of the roof behind the headliner. I gave up, sent all the parts back and bought the OBD-style kit. good luck finding the module- I opened the entire dash and knot it isn't anywhere in the dash/inst panel area.
