thesavo Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) Update. The Generic kit that I got earlier this year is having an issue. This is the kit that I bought and would not recommend it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08YQT3V2Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The generic keys that came in the kit seem to have defective RS buttons after a few months of use. I would recommend a kit with better aftermarket keys or the official $150 - $300 kits from ford. I am having difficulty finding the keys alone. As stated in the first post of this thread; 164-R8067 is a supplier part number. When I search for that i get this link below. https://www.carandtruckremotes.com/factory-ford-remote-key-164-r8067.html They seem to have official remote start IKT keys and ilco aftermarket keys - Official ikt Price: $139.95 - Illco Price: $39.95 Official Ford kit. $150 https://www.fairwayfordparts.net/p-1-key-remote-start-fits-f150-super-duty-edge-and-flex-164r8067da8z15603a $300 https://accessories.ford.com/products/100-series-plug-n-play-4-button-remote-start-system-1 Edited December 1, 2021 by thesavo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesavo Posted December 7, 2021 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) I can confirm, the keys included in my kit are my problem with range and intermittent remote starts. The generic keys are not good. I replaced it with this from ebay and works like it should. Authentic rs key from ebay. I paid $110 after shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-2011-2018-Ford-Remote-Head-Key-W-Remote-Start-164-R8067-5912561-SEALED-/400622189183?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0 I spent $277 between the kit with bad keys and one good key. I would been better off buying the $150 kit from fairway. Edited December 7, 2021 by thesavo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesavo Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) So my wife and I had a few mis-starts with the remote start after adding an authentic RS key. 1. Press [LOCK] button on IKE 2. then double press [2X] button the parking lights would double flash and it would not remote start. I found the pin-point troubleshooting guide in the 2014 factory service manual. For those that are looking, it is under Engine starting not RKE. GROUP 3 - SECTION 303-06: Starting System Pin Point F is for remote start. I attached a PDF that contains only pinpoint F and separate PDF of DTC chart if it is needed Again, PinPoint test F is consolidated and just pertains to remote start. PM me if anyone needs the entire section. As soon as I had the troubleshooting tests in my hand, the remote start worked and I had nothing to test. So, Murphy's law for now. I have it ready in case it fails again.
