I must be missing something here... which happens alot

if your signature is correct you have a 2020 fordpass wasnt introduced on the super duty till 2019. so the guys with 2017/18 had to use a different way to access the truck. theres a way to add fordpass to those trucks i posted the link.

Have you done this? I read through it, & all we need to change parts wise, is the TCU and the antenna? The rest is just programming

Got mine replaced with 12volt.solutions.. works like a charm, response time is much quicker. Easy to install + program. Overall real happy 😁

My truck would time out if it sat for a week, with the oem remote accesss I would have to start it with my key. With Drone mobile it starts fast and all the time. It shows thelocationn of the truck and were it was remote started. I canpresss the oem key fob 3 times and it will start!

Anyways, with 12volt.solutions I can start with OEM key fob. Two ways to do it.. lock/unlock/lock, or press lock and 2x remote start button, both options work. But I've mostly got this to start from phone, super convenient. GPS location is just a bonus.
