Same thing going on here and I just got it back from the dealer service center today and thought they may have screwed something up. Thanks for making this bud! 👍🏼
check engine light on PO035 due to haveing work done on the front at a repair shop, code was not on berfore that... any way..... I had no idea that would affect the remote start, Thank you for the info... now just need to get the Turbo Charger bypass valve circuit investigated and why thats on......
Awesome video. Thank you! Did you share the link to the scanner and I miss it? Is it true you can disconnect the negative terminal to clear codes as well?
Thank you so helpful 100 💯 glad I found your channel I will subscribe for this information you put out hard going all over the UA-cam looking for the specific information. Thank you.
Ive had the p0016 code (later had two of the cam phasers, timing chains, guides, and water pump replaced) and I was able to use remote start.🤷♂️. Ford's remote system actually just sucks and needs not to be so complicated with the key fob. Using Ford app to start vehicle is nice though. No issues there.
It's very common but not normal. System is very dependent on clean and proper oil. If I run into the problem, I always check oil level and milage since last service .
Hello, thank you for the video. I bought my car, a Ford S Max, and it only has one key. I wanted to add another key. I bought a second used key, but the same number. I took it to the key programmer, and after attempts and difficulty, he programmed the key for me, but it only works when you put it inside the key place, and it does not work remotely and does not shut down. The doors would not open. He told me that if I did as you did with the video, the key would work and be programmed. I tried several times, but the method did not work for me. Do you have any advice to offer me based on your great experience in this field? Thank you.
Might Have to get one from the dealer. Programming them can be quite difficult. Who knows, maybe the used one had issues before. Let me know how it works out for you. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Hopefully, you didn't spend too much time trying to fix the remote start. Wonder what Fords reasoning was behind that? Thanks for watching and commenting.
No Engine Light. Remote start still won't work. What I did notice is when I lock my truck it honks 2x indicating a door is open but all the doors are closed including the hood and no door ajar light is on...
@@RobertG-y7g I also had the same issue with my 2015 f150. It was the hood switch. It was intermittent to whether or not it would display it on the instrument cluster as being open or not, and I wouldn’t always get the two beeps when locking as indicating it either. Tried the bending the hood switch bracket up and it didn’t work either. Turns out the plunging mechanism itself was bent a little. Grabbed another one from the junkyard for a few bucks and threw it on - remote start works every time! Hope it works for you!
If you press down the hood switch with hand, and it still doesn’t work, what’s the next thing to check? I don’t get the double honk when I lock the door.
My F150 had a dead battery. I changed it out. hooked up the red and neutral and now remote start wont start. no check engine light. doors are shut... and hood sensor is making contact.
bought a 2013 Expedition..... remote start worked fine for a while then stopped.... the engine will fire up, and then stop.. took it to a local dealer then they started trying to milk me for as many hours as they could....... after 3 hours they said they still have no idea what was wrong BUT they could go deeper and get MyKey involved if i wanted for a few more hours, which they could not specify .... I told them NO and left, for all that money I could buy a different one installed..... Nobody can help me
Are there any trouble codes when it shuts off? Do you lose all electrical or just motor shuts down.? Let me know how it works out for you. Very interesting problem.
Hmm, maybe try clearing codes anyway. I'm not sure what codes Ford engineers use as cut off. Might have a not pcm code? Let me know how it works out for you. Thanks for watching
@ToddNofsinger my hood switch plunging mechanism ended up being bent a bit. Spent a few bucks at a junkyard for a replacement and it works every time now!
I can understand disabling the remote start If you have a bad misfire or other engine damaging issue but a hvac code? That's crazy. Thanks for watching.
I have a problem with remote on my Mustang. I do lock the car, everything is shut from hood to trunk. To try remote start I press the buttons on the remote, I see the remote flashing red light. But I can't see any response from the car no light or horn. I have changed the car battery as well as the remote battery and there is no check engine light I seek help!🥲 I dunno if it could the reason but I can't see the P of Parking in illuminated in red as the others if I shift to R,N,D,S. I can see them illuminated except the P.
I would definitely look into the no "P" The PCM might not be getting a park signal. There is a little micro switch in the shifter console that controls that. Hope this helps. Let me know what you find. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for posting this video, the same exact thing happened to my 2015 Ford Mustang, now I know why the remote start is not working
I like seeing comments about my videos helping people. I'm glad this one was able to help you. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Glad my video was able to help. Thanks for the great feedback.
Man thanks for posting this video. I was wondering why it wouldn’t work on my truck but now I have my answer 😅
Great video. Had the exact thing with 2014 F-350. Already use the Blue Driver OBD2 tool and love it. Cleared the code and it worked. Thank You!
Thanks for the great comment. Blue Driver is a great little code reader and can't beat the price.
Man you know what are the most common problems when this happens ?
Like I have to worried for this or not ?
Thank you for your videos men👍🏻
Could be any number of things. I don't think it happens very often. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I definitely learn something I didn't know. Thanx Shaners!
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Wonderful presentation! Thank you!
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Really great presentation of effective troubleshooting steps

Hope you get your check engine light issue fixed without too much hassle or money. Keep me posted. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for posting this!
No worries! Glad you enjoyed it thanks for watching and commenting.
The hood switch fix!!!🎉🎉🎉
That's it! Thanks man.
You're welcome. Never thought that would affect the remote start, but it does.
Awesome video. Thank you! Did you share the link to the scanner and I miss it? Is it true you can disconnect the negative terminal to clear codes as well?
Yes, link is in the description. Glad you liked the video. Thanks for the positive feedback. I appreciate it.

I don't know why they would disable the remote start. I like the app too, nice and basic.
@shanersmechaniclife3164 I don't know either but like I said, I was still able to use remote start even if with check engine light on.
thank you so much for this video
You are very welcome. I was surprised when I came across this. Thanks for watching and commenting.
So the cam shafts and the timing chain on eco boost is normal? I have that problem right now as we speak.
It's very common but not normal. System is very dependent on clean and proper oil. If I run into the problem, I always check oil level and milage since last service .
Yeah i have a 2016 and just ran into the cam sensor problem
Mine stopped working since the throttle body was damaged, I already ordered the new throttle body I hope it works again
I hope it does too. Let me know how it works out for you. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great video! New subscriber here. Thanks!
Thanks for watching, commenting, and subscribing. I really appreciate your positive feedback.
I tried the hood switch fix, my engine light does not come on when the vehicle is running but and remote start still does not work…any suggestions?
Thanks a million!
Great to hear about my video helping you. Kind of stumbled across this one night. Had to share with everyone.
Thanks bro.
No problem. Thanks for watching and commenting.

‘14 escape same thing. “Wife states remote start not working “
Found faulty evap purge valve.
Hopefully, you didn't spend too much time trying to fix the remote start. Wonder what Fords reasoning was behind that? Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@shanersmechaniclife3164 i work on heavy equipment and Mack and cat always do stuff like this so as soon as I saw that light I knew where to start 🤙
