I've been wondering how this works.

My '11 Lariat has a factory installed remote start. It works great and doesn't shut off the engine when I open the door like others have stated.

Looking at the MyKey feature. Both of my keys are admin and I have never touched the MyKey feature.

What happens if I setup one of my keys to be restrictive and that key is used to remotely start the truck?

Does the engine then shutdown when the door is opened forcing it to read which key is used? The manual talks about programming the remote start as a restrictive key as well. If that is done and I remote start the truck with an admin key, am I then restricted since the truck was started using a restricted key (remote starter)?

If the engine does stop with an open door, does turning all the keys back to admin keys reverse this behavior?


Make sense?!

 

The car will read the key onces u put it in the initiation. U can start it with what ever key u want. Won't tell the difference tell u put the key in

 

Btw u think to much lol hahah jk

 

I know!

 

Just messing man. But yea it's that easy

 

as stated many times before, the rmst door shutdown problem was a 2010 issue only, but easily fixed by a simple programming change for the rmst system.

 

I did not know that. Thanks for clearing it up!
