Adding Factory Remote start
Hey guys. Just got a F150 Lariat 2016 with auto start on it
I want to add the remote option. The dealer told me it was included on my car which was wrong.... Due to the incorrect information we agreed to split it. Here is my question which I can't find an answer for. If I install the remote unit so I can start with my phone then does the original one on my key still work? I don't like if the new one comes with a new fob that makes my original autostart not work.
Hope the question makes sense. Thanks!

I don't have a '15 - so bits of this could be different, but for the most part it all still works the same.
All I can say is that for a dealer install yours is NOT very safe if it will start with the doors or hood open. What happens when you are working on the engine and have your hand in the fan when your kid takes your remote start button and hits the start?
