Keyless with Engine Running?

I found this while looking for other things. http://www.focushacks.com/index.php?modid=25

Anyone have wire diagrams for focus and superduties to cross it over for us?

I didn't know there was a trick to it? I do it all the time. I guess I didn't realize it wasn't supposed to work that way from the factory.

Stock will not lock/unlock while the engine is running, or atleast it shouldn't.

ReAX, I believe it is only '01 and earlier models where the keyless entry will not work with the engine running. 02 and newer it's not an issue.

I believe the GEM is what controls the keyless entry, and don't think you'd be able to do the same kind of wiring like in that link on our trucks to get it to work.

A remote start system would however override that and allow you to lock/unlock the truck with it running, or even remove the key while the truck is still running.

My 2004 will let me lock it with the engine running. I just hit 7-8 and 9-0 together and let it idle down while I get the pump squared away inside.
