How to get remote start to work


Recommended Posts

I just recently purchased a 2015 Ford Fusion.  After looking at the Car Facts report I found that a remote start option was installed.  After talking to the dealer, they said not a chance, it must not be right.   When I got home I was looking through the display, I discovered a remote start option that allows me to turn it on and off and set the duration.  So that got me thinking… After some online investigating, I found this part (7J-19G367-AA) near the fuse panel.  With all the searching that I found, I am convinced this is the remote start module that was on the Car Facts report.

My car is a keyed start with the flip key fob.  It only has the Lock/Unlock/Trunk Release and Horn button.  Through my digging I found that a Lock/Unlock/Lock command can be used to start the vehicle.  I did try with no luck.  I did also find that you can program the module by turning the key 8 times, again no luck.

Does anyone out there have suggestions??

Does your label show 2 more digits in front of the "7J"?

That would be helpful
