2008 factory remote start problem

I installed a factory remote start, keyless entry, and alarm. Part # 7L3J-19G367-AA. I have everything wired locks and unlocks work, programmed the way it says to but when I hit the start button. It goes in to start mode but doesn't crank. PATS module is hocked up and working no security light is on. I can start the truck with the key hit the remote start button turn the key off pull the key out and the truck stays running. Any help would be appreciated.

Did you have both keys when you programmed the PATS? I know this was an issue when I did mine. You have to have them both to program the remote start correctly.

Also, I wish I had just gotten an aftermarket one. The "factory" Ford remote start and alarm kit is an aftermarket one with a Ford sticker on it.

Must be programming then. My wife had one and I had the other when they programmed mine. I remember it was a bit tricky.

Did you check if you are getting 12v at starter wire I believe it is a blue/white wire at ign. switch should be appox 12.8 after wait to start light goes out.

I have no power out on that wire during remote start but it does show power when I crank with the key.

OEM remote start

Hi
I have no definitive answer but you must check your hood pin or any other connection which are crucial. I have used them in non ford vehicles.

This time I am also installing an OEM starter on 2009 escape. I am unable to locate wiring for following can you please help....any images, would be of greater help...
1.Door Lock output
2.Door Unlock output
3.Park light output

Hi did you get your remote start to work .....i did mine and works...

did you troubleshoot.....hold remote start for 3 10 secs....horn chirps....the number of horns should tell you the problem....i guess your security by pass not programmed properly.....
1 chirp...security
2 chirp hood or brakes
3 chirp door
4 chirp...tach....

i hope this helps

You may be having this one but just thought it can help. When pressing the over ride button we often tend to press longer and goes into next banks......

Not starting

On my 2008 Ford F350, I have the factory remote start. When I first got the truck at 72000 miles it worked great. About 2 years ago it quit working, it comes on like it's going to start be the theft light flash rapidly. The horn chirps when I press the button and chirps again when it doesn't start. Any thoughts what it might be?
