Remote Start?

[Mitch89]

I ordered one of these modules and installed it today.

They offered both 3x Lock and Lock-Unlock-Lock options. I chose the latter as I like to be able to have the horn honk to confirm it's locked, but didn't want to have it honking when I use the remote start.

Bit of Forscan programming and it seems to be working great!

Thats the exact one I installed on my unit. It came with a harness and was extremely easy to install.

So far I am very happy with my RemoteStartX:

It installed easily and has worked flawlessly for several weeks now. About a 5 second delay from hitting the key fob and the heater kicks in after about 5 mins.

I got quickly fed up with the FordPass remote start - rarely would hook up and then forced a key start if I didn't drive the truck for 24 hours - haven't gone back to FP since and don't really plan to do so except to spend the points from buying the truck.

The app definitely needs some work. I only drive the Ranger on the weekends as I work from home, I have a scheduled start for midweek (Tue 8am) but very rarely does it do it, and there's maybe a 20% chance the truck will start if I try with the app, the Start-X has been rock solid.

Do you know if there is way to connect this to our phones? FORTIN makes accessory parts for the module.

Just put this on my 2021 Ranger XLT w/301a and Chrome package on it. Super easy to program, takes longer to hide under the dash than to program. Had it installed in 5-10 minutes. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KHMGH3Z/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. Best $100 you will spend if you want to start from your key fob.
