is there anyway to bring these pictures back to life?

Should all be back up now

i will get them reposted, i switched hosting companies

is there anyway to bring these pictures back to life?

Finished the DIY and posted videos here

Ok got everything done today so here is the rest

Hood Pin Installation

40) Open your hood and you will see the place where the hood pin will install too

41) The plug for the hood pin switch is just under the hood pin switch mounting point, unplug this from the factory plastic piece

42) The hood pin switch only goes in one way so push it into the mounting hole until it clips in

43) Plug the plug you unplugged in step 41 into the bottom of the hood pin switch

Installation is now complete!!!

You will then need to go to your local dealer and have the remote start activated with IDS. I have heard and seen a lot of different prices for this....HOWEVER it took my dealer all of 30 minutes to do and was $45 for labor. If your dealer is gouging you or charging something else I would either report them to Ford, or find another dealer

Here is how the remote functions

...and here are the new Remote Start MyTouch Menus

OK...I might have missed it but where do you connect the first antenna (the one that has body clips attached to wire)?

 

Step 29

Do you have to take it to a dealer now to have them activate it?

Yes, and I just posted the DIY here

Oh and one more thing! Where did you buy from and what was the price?

I got mine from Josh at Tasco Automotive Group, I am not sure if he wants the price posted so I will just give you his email address: jlaliberte@tasca.com

The original email I sent to him read

"....Hello, I have a 2011 Ford Edge and would like a price on the BB5Z-19G364-C remote start kit. Thanks!...."

I will say though that its was under $280!!

36) Re-attach center trim piece


37) Put spare tire cover back in place(if you removed it)


38) Re-attach the floor trim piece you removed in step 5


39) Put the cargo cover back into place



At this point everything is buttoned up.....except for where you want to mount your LED and Valet switch, right now they should be sticking out of your fuse box cover. I will let you decide on where you want to mount these to best suite your personal preference



The other thing that I did not put in the guide yet is the hood pin switch. This is required for the installation(Part # BT4Z-19G366-A)...I did not put it in this DIY yet because when I ordered the remote start I forgot to order it...:-( The part is ordered and will be in this week, so as soon as it is in, I will include it in the DIY. The hood pin switch is VERY easy to install, should not take more than 20 seconds.

Once everything is installed you will need to go to your dealer and have the unit activated via IDS. From what I have read the price is varying from dealer to dealer, our dealer here said it would be $79 to do. Again this will be done this week and I will post the results/process/experience as well as a video of it in action.

I hope this has helped, I know in watching the video(that video was from an F-150), that was posted on other thread/forums it would have you believe this install takes 30 minutes...while it might be possible to do it in that short of time, in my opinion to do it right it will take you a bit longer. While the install is not hard at all on the Edge, there are just a few more steps you have to go through.

28) Set the left rear panel back in the vehicle so that you can reattach all of the wiring to it
Attach the grey plugged harness for the light


29 Attach the grey plugged harness from the remote start antenna module, and the black & white square plugged harness from the remote start module to the panel





30) Tidy up all your wiring using electrical tape or wire ties



***Its worth noting here that the multiple body clips on the antenna wire harness are not used or attached to anything on the 2011 Edge ***



31) If your vehicle is equipped also re-attach the wire harness for the rear seat fold down switches and the 12v outlet



32) Re-install the left rear cover panel


Make sure you reinstall the 2 plastic body clips in the panel to the floor


33) Reattach the cargo net anchor


34) Using T50 Torx bit reattach seat belt anchor





35) Place left rear cargo/storage tray back into place

21) Begin routing/securing the led, and valet switch to the front of the vehicle along the factory wiring harness, using electrical tape, or wire ties



Route the wires through the black plastic piece from Optional Step 20b


Continue following factory harness past the B-Pillar


Route the 2 wires through the drivers side factory loom in the door way


[imghttps://photos.smugmug.com/DIY/2011FordEdgeRemoteStart/i-ZWWv7CN/0/O/edge_rs077.jpg[/img]

Once you have these 2 wires up front near the fuse panel under the dash you can then close the plastic doors that cover the wires in the door way


22) Go ahead and then tighten the 2 10mm screws, if you used the Optional 20b step


23) Re-attach the B-Pillar cover


24) Reinstall the plastic trim piece in on the drivers side door well



25) Next we will install the shock sensor, remove the protective film from the double sided tape and attach shock sensor to vehicle


26) Plug the shock sensor into the main remote starter wiring harness



27) Plug the square vehicle wiring harness plug into the remote starter wiring harness




Its now time to reinstall the left rear cover panel

Its now time to mount the remote start module


This is where the module will mount


16) Remove the protective film from the velcro on the remote start module and attach to vehicle fender well



17) Plug in the 5-wire antenna wire to the remote start module


18) Using extra wire ties clean up the excess wiring



19) Now attach the main harness to the remote start module(The plugs are poka-yoked so only one will fit the plug on the remote start unit)



Now we will run the led, and the valet switch to the front of the vehicle

20) Open the drivers side door and remove the plastic trim piece from the door way(no tools required, and good pull will do)


While your here go ahead and pop open the plastic covers(we will be running the wires along side the factory runs)



20) Remove the B-pillar plastic cover(no tools required, a good pull will do)





20b **This step is optional, but it makes things eaiser**
Where you removed the plastic cover in step 5 there is a black plastic cover that houses the wires. If you lift up slightly on the carpet there you will notice 2 10mm nuts. Remove these, but do not remove the plastic piece. We will leave this loose so we can route our led, and valet switch through it

Since you are only allowed to post so many images at a time I had to make multiple posts....

9) Once you have all of the wires removed, remove the 2 white plastic body clips from the panel



10) Remove the left rear panel



The first item to go in will be the antenna module


This is where the antenna module will mount


11)Plug in the grey plugged antenna wire(it is the one with several body clips attached to it)


12) Using the supplied white wire ties attach the antenna to the vehicle




13) Its now time to mount the antenna


Plug the black 5-wire harness into the antenna


14) Route 5-wire antenna harness through the plastic C-Pillar cover


15) Remove the protective film from the double sided tape on the back of the antenna and attach to rear window(You may want to clean the window with alcohol before sticking antenna to window)

Thought this might be a good DIY to have.
**First working on your own vehicle you so at your own risk**
**Second this is the way I chose to do it, and is purely for guidance/help, I do not work for Ford, nor am I a Ford Technician**

Tools Needed:
T50 Torx Bit
Body Clip tool, or flat blade screw driver, or needle nose pliers
Diagonal Nose Wire Cutter Pliers (dykes)

Optional Tools:
Extra Wire Ties
10mm socket
Electrical Tape

200 Series Kit (Part #: BB5Z-19G364-C)



Whats Included in the Kit



1) Open the rear hatch and remove the center trim piece(no tools are required just, raise the hooks, and a good pull will do)



2) Raise the rear cargo/spare tire cover and remove


3) Remove the left rear plastic cargo/storage tray


4) Using body clip tool/flat blade screw driver/needle nose pliers remove the 2 plastic clips on the floor from the left rear side panel(these suck...so be patient)


Also be sure to unscrew and remove the top left rear cargo anchor


5) Open the left rear door and remove the small plastic cover in the door way(no tools required, simply a good pull will do)


6) Using a T50 Torx bit, remove the left rear seat belt anchor




7) You can then begin to separate the left rear panel from the vehicle(DO NOT pull this all the way off yet, since there are wires attached)


**NOTE when you separate the rear section of the left rear panel from the vehicle, be careful when pulling away the black rubber molding as Ford uses a tan grease/sealant on this, and it is hard to get off of things)


8) With the panel leaned over unplug all the connections that are attached to the left rear panel

Did you ever compile your step by step guide? I was going to purchase my remote start this week, but have been on the fence about doing it myself or paying the dealer.

 

Thanks!

Brian

Sorry about the delay, I have all the pictures uploaded, and will do the step by step today. Don't hesitate, its definitely something you can do yourself.

I just finished the install of the 200 series and took pictures of the whole process. I will post a complete DIY later today.

This is correct. I just finished installing my remote start, "plug and play" and this was the case on the 2011. I purchased the kit on line for $180.00 which include 2 OE key fobs, (just had them cut) and a hood switch for $18.00. Installation took about 1/2 hour. which included the time to reprogram the keys. I then had the dealer activate the remote start feature on the vehicle computer. They charged me $39.00 so my remote starter system cost $237.00. I had 3 dealers quote me $550 - 700.

Works great!

I just go the "200" series plug and play remote start and today I searched both the under the drivers side and passenger side dash and can not find any place where the following 2 plugs from the remote start, plug into the vehicle. Are you saying these are located in the rear of the vehicle?

Hello,

 

I have a 2011 Ford Edge and I recently purchased a 200 series plug and play factory remote start, BB5Z-19G364-C. This may sound dumb but I can not figure out where to plug it in to. Does anyone know where to plug it in to? Or do you have the installation instrucitons? I have contacted the dealer and they are being less than helpful about giving me the instructions to install it. It looks like the one for the f150 that plugs into the TPMS modual, the one in the video on another post here but I have looked under both sides of the dash and I do not see the a modual that looks like the one in the video or any where else to plug it in to. I have also searched this and other sites and can not find where people plugged it in, just that they did it in 30 minutes or less. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Chris

I have the EXACT same question, today I searched both the under the drivers side and passenger side dash and can not find any place where the following 2 plugs from the remote start, plug into the vehicle.

1) No temperature control. It will run on the last settings or on Auto depending on what you set in the menu (at least for the factory driver package)

2) You need a hood pin switch. Only factory driver packages should have them already installed.

3) This has no bearing on whether the alarm/RS will work.

Great info, thanks for the reply!

Just purchased a 2011 Edge SEL with a Remote Start Bi-Directional 100 Series Plug and Play PN BT4Z-19G364-A. When I picked

 

up the car the dealer had the wrong remote starter installed. It was the type that had the start button right on the key. I made them

 

change it to what I ordered,which they did without any hassle. However the remote start feature works just fine but the find and panic

 

button do not work at all. I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem with this series remote starter? seems to me if

 

you advertise that the product has this feature as well it should work.

 

Any info on this matter would be much appreciated

Hey we just got our new 2011 Ford Edge and are looking at this. Couple of questions if you dont mind:

1) Does this control temperature, or do you just leave the heat/air on and it will be in with the remote start

2) Do you have to get a separate hood pin switch

3) Do you have the MyKey/MyTouch/Sync system, we do and are trying to figure out if this work with it

Thanks!
