HB Dino Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Does anyone know who to change the programming so that after remote starting, my 2012 F-150 Platinum will stop shutting off when I insert the key and turn to the run position?

akirby Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Does the key work ok if you don't use remote start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Hey HB Dino. Welcome to the forum. The only thing I could find that remotely resembled your issue was the factory auto-shutoff when opening the doors. I'm not sure if it would solve your issue, but the reprogramming is relatively straightforward. Here's a video on doing it on an Expedition (which should act the same as your F-150) Edit, this guy on another website had the same issue and seems to have resolved it using the same steps in the video. http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1163618-12-remote-start-problem.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQHb0mU0rvI Edited September 3, 2015 by Intrepidatious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverLS Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Mine always shuts off if my foot is not on the brake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twintornados Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Same here...you need to put your foot on the brake when you turn on the key, or it will shut off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Hope the brake thing is what it is (sure would make it a lot easier!) Our factory installed remote starter in our minivan does not require that. (I should know, I always reach across the front seats and put the key in then belt my kids in the backseat). Of course it also isn't a Ford so there's obvious differences. Edited September 3, 2015 by Intrepidatious forgot a letter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT90SC Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 If you hit the brake it should shut off. This is what keeps people from stealing it when remote started as you can't get it out of park without the brake. There are trigger wires for shutoff on the dealer installed version of the remote start. One is door open, and the other is the key in ignition switch. They are there to keep proper function of MyKey. The later ones could not be turned off in the module, but the trigger wires can be disconnected easy enough.
