OK, This worked. I can confirm you can install ford a Ford Plug n Play remote start kit in a 2014 ford Edge SEL w/o power liftgate. These Kits are sold for F150, and super-duty trucks. Watch any truck install video and it give you an idea. The pictures from another post show where the target module is behind the driver's rear quarter trim panel. Use care when pulling it out. I did not take a picture, but you don;t have to rip the entire panel out. Just pull it back near the top of the seat belt. The TPM module is mounted to the Trim panel.
Purchased parts
- BT4Z-19G366-A Hood Switch
- BC3Z-19G364-A Remote start kit. 2 (generic) keys, antenna, and RF cable.
I did not have to mess with As-Built codes as it had "presets" ready to go for BdyCM and IPC module.
IPC changes were expected from previous posts. With all the Remote options added, just one row of AS-built changed.
BdyCM changed as expected, however, it did change block 57. I compared exports before, after and then compared them with win-merge. I forget to take screenshots of block 57 in forscan.
Since the Keys were generic (non-genuine), the Key Transponder had to be programmed separately from the remote built in to the key had. For the remote part, I had to program with 8 key cycles then press buttons on the remote. For some reason, generic keys are just a transponder pill and and remote fob kluged together
The generic (non-genuine) keys have a 2x button, but it takes 3 presses after lock to start the car remotely. I am not sure why, but it does guarantee a start every time.
Here are links to amazon items that I ordered.
Antenaa, RF cable and IKT
