Factory remote start

I assume factory remote start was available on these trucks- curious as to what package it came in and/or what trims it was available on? Just wondering if there's a way to know "at a glance" so to speak.

If the key fob has 4 buttons, you know it's a RS equipped truck.

If it doesn't have it equipped, it can easily be turned on in the truck's computer and a 4 button key can be cut and programmed for it.

It's easy enough to install yourself on 2011+ trucks using the factory components.

It is actually available with all trucks, just needs to be turned on which you can use forscan. You don't need to add anything except a key to control it. The range will be poor so you should add the antenna. That is all you need.

Check my signature for the forscan spreadsheet and how to info for forscan.

It doesn't work on the 2009-2010's, only 2011+.

Did you add the extension that puts it up above the window?
