Remote start not working

[Tahoetim_42]

I cant find any answers on the forum that have this information. So my raptor wasn't optioned with remote start, I bought the antenna and 2 keys for it, installed the antenna, got the keys cut and programmed and such. Had my friend with Forscan turn the remote start function on and we tried it out and it worked. Shut it off and waited a while and tried it again... nothing, keep trying and trying again and nothing happens. I unplugged the hood pin and cleaned it out, still won't remote start. Does anyone know what the parameters are for remote start? It seems like something on the truck side (not antenna or remote). Thinking maybe a wire is loose, just not sure what sensors. Also no CEL.

Let's start with -- What process are you going through on the remote to start it?

Sometimes I get it right and sometimes it doesn't work for me, but 100% of the time it is user error (in my case).

Does it have at least 1/4 tank of fuel?

Mine did this once and it was because one of the door locks was stuck unlocked.

Id check that and maybe check the settings in the dash (odometer area) see of its on or off.

Start vehicle
go to settings,

select: remote start,
select: duration,
(is "off" checked?)
select: 5, 10, or 15 mins.
turn vehicle off
try remote start


Oh disregard i missed that it didn’t have remote start option already. So idk if this is even helpful now Oops lol.
