Factory perimeter alarm

[Hollywood1]

I have a 2024 Edge ST and I would like to add the factory perimeter alarm ML3Z-19A361-A. Does anyone know if it’s a simple plug and play or if I need to get it coded?

TIA

According to Levittown Ford, adding the factory perimeter alarm to a 2024 Edge ST with the part number ML3Z-19A361-A is NOT a simple plug-and-play installation and DOES requires dealer programming.

Thank you. I don’t mind paying to have it activated but I can’t stomach paying to get such a simple thing installed. I can’t even find instructions for it.

Your ST should already have a Perimeter alarm. The only function the VSS would add to your ST is the shock sensor. 

 

I found 2023 installation instructions (here) and no special programming is required for VSS functions since if already have the key fob remote start from the factory.

Whoa, ho, ho. After reading Omar302's post, I did some more digging. Seems Levittown was wrong. (But not me, of course .... :-)

 

Here's what I'm finding now;

 

"ML3Z-19A361-A is the part number for the Ford Perimeter Plus Vehicle Security System, a shock and impact sensor module.

 

After a simple plug-and-play installation, the module automatically activates with an ignition cycle. Dealer programming is only needed if you want to add the optional remote start feature."

 

So ill just sit here on the patio, feed the squirrels and hummers, drink my martunies and think happy thoughts. 

 

Let us know if you decide to go ahead and put one in.
