On my 2024 Xl Hybrid, I had the dealer install "Ford Perimeter Plus Vehicle Security System"
It enables remote start with the original key fob. Just press Lock-Unlock-Lock.
I don't use the security alarm
On my used 2024, I upgraded to 12V Agm, added a Bluetooth battery monitor and used FORScan change SOC to 90%. Don’t make any last minute changes before your trip. Save a few weeks of local driving to debug any maintenance or upgrades before your departure
You will want a towed battery charger to get 12V from your RV or the Maverick battery will get drained. If the battery gets to low it could drop out of neutral tow mode and damage the transmission.
I ordered “2x Remote Fob Transponder Chip Car Key 128 Bit for Ford Lincoln” https://a.co/d/dypwhn9 and had my locksmith cut them. I still have the original 2 key fobs so it was easy to authorize one of the new keys for full function and I did not progam the 2nd key.
I had a few spare keys cut for my 2024 Hybrid XL and wanted to test setting up Neutral Tow mode with an unauthorized key.
Everything seems to work correctly. I can go the through the settings and the dash says “Neutral Tow Enabled” but the key will not start the engine.
if you try to start...
