Ok, I've hit a hiccup. Vehicle 2014 SE, no heated seats or wheel and no power liftgate. I've installed the antenna and hood switch. I've set the remote to on and the options on the display, the key working to lock/unlock and start car. The remote start will not work. I cannot find the option in BCM (not as built) to enable the hood switch or perimeter alarm. Those 2 options are not in there. Can someone help with this. I have the adapter hooked up to a netbook and it seems to be functioning correctly as I was able to change the number of signal blinks, set the remote on (0148) and set it to show in the display (IPC change) last setting or auto for the remote start temperature setting.
Any help will be appreciated.

Nevermind, I didn't know it was 2 processes. One for the FOB and one for the key.

Ok, so I bought this unit from Ford Fairway, (living in Canada and trying to buy some stuff from the USA can be a PIA) anyway I finally got it but did not install as yet. It came with one key, I took the key to an Auto Service centre ( Canadian Tire) and was told I can only get it programmed at the dealership. is this accurate? Can I not get it cut and do the FOB-learning process or is that different from the key programming?
Here is the reason for my asking.
I had also bought a knockoff key (without remote start button) from ebay and had it cut at Home Depot for free, buddy said i'm SOL if it does not work. I did the FOB learning process and it would lock and unlock the doors but the key does not start engine. Why? did I get a dud or is the FOB learning process in manual different from key programming from the dealership.
I don't want to screw up the OEM key that came with the remote starter.
I would like to do this complete instal myself. I have the Forscan info for Hood Switch and Remote start. I think I can. I already did the turn signal to 6 blinks instead 3. Thanks for your replies.

It can be done under remote scan. It’s under the BCM settings

New to site. Is there a vendor's forum or only personal classified selling?
TIA

You'll need to enable hood switch function via IDS (at the dealer) or you can do so via forscan.
Can you enable remote start thru forscan too or only thru IDS (dealer)?

Hi, I'm new to forum and a 2014 Edge SE with no push button start and no power liftgate. Can some help me find the correct kit to add remote start. I saw a few post down but that person had the power lift gate option. I found the kit on Ebay but not sure if it correct or can be found at a better price. TIA

HI all,
I am the owner of a 2013 Ford Edge SEL 3.5 L V6 with about 157,000 km on it.
I am not even close to what you would call a "car guy" but I have been enjoying watching videos on how to change brakes, flush the coolant, etc. I visited this forum a while ago as I was trying to figure out how to properly jack up my car.
I look forward to being an active member on this forum.
I just joined a few days ago too. Just bought a 2014 SE. North Etobicoke. Where in TO?

Ok, nevermind again, I found the problem, me. Even thought the option of perimeter alarm or Hood switch does not show up in BCM, it works. I was not pressing lock before the 2X twice. Hope this help someone.
