Default Remote Start Help

Hi all
I have a 2013 FX4 ecoboost and issues with the remote start. It does nothing. No beeps, horn or lights when I try to start it. I've made sure the doors are locked and the remote start settings in the info display are correct. Any ideas what I might try?
thanks

Make sure it is locked...
Then press the start button twice and It should start up! Might have to hold the second push a little longer til it starts

Have you tried replacing the battery in the fob?

Isn't your truck still under the 3/36 bumper-to-bumper warranty? If so take it to the dealer to have it fixed.

Yes...I just thought I'd see if there might be a simple fix. If not I'll bring it to the dealer

just a thought as I was playing with my settings last year...
not sure if its the way my starter is setup, I can have the doors open, hit the lock and start x2 and she fires up with the doors open dome on..

Do you have to lock the doors with the remote?
Also..Do you also have to hit the lock button on the remote before using the 2x start button?

Don't hit them to fast. I found out you need to have a short pause between each button.
