When using the remote start, the climate control LEDs stay off. Has anybody else noticed this?

 

almost everything is off

 

Yes, that is normal. You won't have access to the controls either, everything is handled by the computer until you take control.

 

I thought since I had "Auto" selected in the climate control settings for remote start, the "Auto" LED might be on.

 

Nope, Auto is a user selected mode. The Auto for the computer is a separate deal.

 

auto lets the outside air depict what settings the inside will be on when using remote start, using the manual setting will let it run what you left it at when you turned it off....at least that's how it's supposed to work.

 

Interesting post considering my (new) remote start has yet to turn on the Heat. this AM it was 11 degrees... the settings(remote start)are there and iv'e selected auto and even tried last settings still nothing.

is this a setting ford can fix ??

any help here-?

thanks-

 

I couldn't get the "auto" setting to do anything, even on 20F mornings. Changed it to "last setting" and it works probably 9 out of 10 times.

 

I'm confused. If you had the "auto" set at 74 degrees, why wouldn't you get the same thing in "last setting" or "auto" mode?

 

This seems to be where I'm at most of the time.
