Um, you can't move the vehicle without a key.

 

Okay from the "Holy thread resurrection Batman!" file, I had this trouble after a cold snap and going into the control panel and turning everything on and off that I could seemed to help.

 

It happens when your battery is low, re charge your battery, every time I've had this beep if i check my battery its down a few volts and sometimes its so low the truck won't even turn over.

I've heard a lot of people saying that the new fords don't fully charge the battery to 100% about once a month in the winter i'll throw a charger on my battery and its always down 80% or sometimes less

 

From day one my remote start has been acting up. Works when it wants to

 

Open the hood. Bend hood switch (pressure switch attached to metal plate on drivers side fender) upward. Close hood.

 

I will try that

 

Yea that happened to me. I was working on the airbox one cold day, shut the hood and went inside. The next morning I hit the fob and all I got was a honk the lights flashing. Didn't know why, so made an appointment with the dealer to have it looked at. Well, the next day I opened the hood for something, can't remember why at the moment, and when looking around I noticed the hood switch by the airbox was bent way down. Looks like a small rubber bellows. I bent the bracket back up, shut the hood and tried the remote. It worked! Cancelled the appointment with the dealer. So that may be a good suggestion if you've been under the hood lately....

 

Yeah if you open the hood with the engine running on remote, it kills the ignition

Mine did this a few times, I changed the remote battery. All was good. Mine never attempted to start though. Mine would get the lock blink but would not get the start x2.

I think remote start eats the fob batteries. My Wife's Caravan goes through the batteries too.

 

i am having same problem right now noticed that when truck is in park it doesnt register on display between tach and speedometer took the cover off the console shifter and dont see any adjustment for the cable but there are switches and sensors also will take it to dealership in morning to be scanned

 

Hi pcarlton76,

Pass along the year and mileage of your truck. I'll see how I can help with that remote start.
