I put that two way system on my wife's 14 Escape but had to splice and solder wires and add the hood switch, she didn't have any r/s.

On my truck that came with the 1 way system (x2 button on key head) I added 2 way to my truck but not that one. I added the VSS and an RMU so I could r/s with my cell phone or computer. No extra fobs on the key chain, and limitless range. The key head r/s still works as well.

Is this true? Anyone ever add 2 way to an existing 1 way system WITHOUT this VSS box? Sucks I cant even return these components now.
Yes, you will need the VSS to install the Two way system.

If you are looking to return the parts, most dealership, even some of the ones on eBay will allow you to return the parts, as long as you did not damage them. Some will have a 15-20% restocking fee, and the online ones might require you to pay shipping and substract Ebay/Paypal fees from the refund.

Hm. Anyone have the correct part number for the replacement VSS? Is it still an at home install or will it need dealer programming for the VSS?

DL3Z-15K601-A - 2 way fob
DL3J-19A402-AB, which also has written DL3Z-15603-C - FIA Atenna Kit which has zip ties, wire, and a square box antenna.

This is everything listed in the levittown ford parts kit I ordered, located at
https://www.levittownfordparts.com/f...al-p-2282.html

I have existing 1 way remote start. The instructions have no clear indication of where to start if you have existing remote start. I should already have VSS because I have functional 1 way start.

Where do I start? Do I just replace existing parts and then do the 8x key VSS programming?
You're link is pretty clear that you need the VSS module, DL3Z-19A361-A, it's in bold and stuff. And there is a link to the instructions at the bottom. See below.

Really think people just plain need to read something occasionally.

If remote start is already activated, then there's no additional programming required for VSS. It's all plug and play.

In the trades/sales section. That's one Hell of an incredible price!

That's everything you need for the cellular remote start

Just a $50 a year fee. Well worth the convenience for that! Breaks down to about .14 cents a day.

Bought mine from a local dealer that is also a forum vendor here, they have an ebay store but I didn't see it listed any longer, got mine a while back.

EDIT: Found the kit on another dealers website, has everything you need. https://www.levittownfordparts.com/f...al-p-6313.html U.S. version, Canada requires a different RMU for their cell system.

Costs a little more than I paid but most other dealer sites don't even list it any longer.
