Video install Keyfob Remote Start Perimeter Plus Security System for 2020+ Escape Maverick and Bronco Sport

[Cdubya2020]

I made a video on how to install the Perimeter Plus System on the 2020+ Escape it eould be the same for the bronco sport and maverick, here is the link:
Anyone who is on the fence about install can be relieved that the install takes roughly 5 to 15 minutes, you DO NOT need Forscan or IDS to enable anything on the 2020 or newer escape, bronco sport or Maverick as we already have remote start enabled due to the Fordpass app. The unit can be purchased anywhere from $130 to $200 from ford, part number is KN1Z-19A361-A. I decided to install this because I have bad cell signal in my area and want a reliable remote start that does not require cell service and it is nice having it on the fob. The added bonus is it gives you a perimeter alarm with motion sensing as well. I hope this helps someone as I could not find much info about it online. I purchased mine through a ford dealer on ebay for $170 after tax. This also can be added just for the alarm, just leave the jumper off if you have remote start already on the fob. I have listed the install manual. It shows explorer but it shows how for all the other models as well.

Just to add to the above:

I literally just picked up mine from the dealer yesterday, paid 215 and used all my ford points from the Mav purchase. Installing now, thanks much for this!

I just got under here and found the techs just double mounted one side of my OBD port, supposedly because they couldn't get a ratchet lol...

Also I've got a nz6t-14f642-ae Smart Link and Spireon GPS, which I'm going to plug the Perimeter System into, as my OBD is directly connected.

Zipped up, remote start works but even at full sensitivity and rereading and retrying the security enable mode (it's enabled) I can't get it to react with either chirp or alarm. Bought for the remote start but would like the main alarm function working lol, not sure if I messed anything up beyond not mounting the VSS to the firewall for direct vibration transfer??

Does anyone know if its possible to temporarily disarm the perimeter plus system?

I followed these steps to enable it. Step 34 references the enable/disable feature:

You can do that in settings. If you select Perimeter Sensing, it only arms the doors/hood/tailgate.
You can also set it to ask every time you exit, I disabled that.

EDIT: This screen is NOT necessary/useless on a Maverick. It is for vehicles with Interior Sensors so you can disable them but leave the rest of the Perimeter Alarm activated. The Maverick DOES NOT have Interior Sensors, so this screen doesn't do Anything.

Thanks but alarm doesn't show up in the settings on my truck.

After you installed it, did the options show up in the vehicle settings???

No.

No.

I swear when I first got my Maverick I had the alarm settings in my vehicle setting on screen. Then later when I checked, it was gone.

I don't recall whether or not they were before I did the installation, but I checked afterwards and they were not.

I think it may be displayed in the Lariat but not the XLT.
BTW, it's not displayed on my XLT either.
