Extended Range Antenna Remote Start

[italiancholo123]

I bought the extended range antenna for the remote start thinking it would come with some sort of instruction or diagram. And it’s nothing more than an antenna in a bag. Has anyone installed this yet? From the instructions I found on fords service site it says to stick it to the readies mirro and run it to the module. And of course the instructions aren’t updated for the maverick yet so I have no idea where to run it. Any experience with this?

This picture is in the Perimeter plus security installation instructions:

Kinda vague, I agree...

The antenna only extends the dedicated remote start fob it will not help your oem keyfob activation distance. I installed mine a while back, instructions are fine it's literally just an antenna; stick it where you want and run the cable back how you prefer I snaked mine down the A pillar driver side, module sits just above the trailer control panel behind the dash. its vestigial for me, planning to remove when i install the uv tint on my windshield if you have any questions about how i did it ask it really is pretty straight forward so I'm not sure what you're looking for steps wise

If you have a smart phone and download the app, you can start your truck from across the USA. I have my truck scheduled to start M-F at 6:30am for my drive to work. And 2:45pm for the ride home. Warm in the winter and cool in the summer when I hop in. Forgot to unschedule when we went to ATL and the neighbors thought someone was trying hotwire it but didn't see a soul.
If I'm misunderstanding the issue, my apologies.

Super cool and unrelated. Obviously the app works wherever you are but I'm not loading up the app or getting in my car at the exact same time every day.
