    So I just did some searching with a lot of different VIN's of all trims and years on Ford Parts and it looks like all the TPMS sensors from all years operate at 315 MHZ so replacing them should not be required. Have you considered stopping by a tire shop and having them reprogram the sensors? They don't have to remove the wheels or anything to do that, many have a little tool that they can just walk around the car with and do in a few seconds. Not sure what they would charge, if anything at all, but that could be worth checking out. It would be logical that the TPMS sensors lost sight of the exact module they were programed to. 

    I haven't taken a long enough drive to see if they'll relearn, I have the tool to do it somewhere around here, I'll have to give it a shot and see what happens.  Sounds like they just haven't mated with the new module yet.   Thanks for all your help!

    Glad to hear you were able to get it to work. I was beginning to think that this method only worked for me. The TPMS thing is odd because changing them for the new frequency makes perfect sense. I have no idea why they all the sudden started working on my Titanium. Maybe there is something different about those in particular. I guess for anyone doing this, the sensors should be factored in to the cost. If you remember the exact things that need to be done with the hood latch, I would be happy to add them to the original post to negate any confusion. 

    I'm having a hard time finding tpms sensors with a different frequency so I'm not honestly sure if mine will work or not, I guess time will tell but definitely a good consideration and still better than having aftermarket remote start in my opinion.   I'll list below each thing I enabled on mine just in case it may be needed on other models of lesser trim as well.  Thank you for your willingness to keep this alive, I think it will help a lot of people.   I'm going for fog lights and factory tow hitch/wiring next, fingers crossed.

     

    BdyCM:   Hood Switch - changed from "not present" to "present"     Remote Start "enabled"

    FCIM:  Remote Start  "enabled"

    SCCM:  Remote Start  "enabled"

    IPC:  Remote Start  "enabled",     Remote Start climate settings "enabled"

    I did all of this on my 2017 SEL. At first, tpms was fine and didn't get any errors. Now it is saying tire pressure sensor fault after about 30 minutes of driving and hasn't gone away in a few days. Also, when I try to remote start it the car lights flash but doesn't start and the remote blinks red. I enabled everything in forscan that I had to I believe. Anyone have an ideas on how to fix the tpms issues or get the remote start working?

    I hope you were able to get yours figured out, but if not, you'll need to change the hood switch setting in the BdyCM portion, this is the reason for the horn honk and light flash.  The TPMS issue just requires a replacement of the sensors with those that match the new frequency. 

  4. I know this thread is old, but thank you for providing this information.  Just to confirm, this can be done on a 2017 SE model as well, you'll need to enable the hood latch switch though or you'll get the horn honk and light flash instead of a start. Just completed mine today, totally worth the tpms replacement to get factory remote start at a not factory price.
