Okay , I finally got it installed. I don't know about other models, but on the hybrid I found it a little different. There is no plug in on the back of the OBD port. Follow the cable form the back of the OBD to the next plugin .You will probably need to cut the zip tie holding several cables together. Unplug the cable there. That port will also look like an OBD port. Turn it around to the backside and you will see a cable with a tab that plugs into it. Release that cable and that is where the security cable plus in, between that plug and where you just unplugged. Now just put everything back together. it's a PITA , but doable. The remote start worked with the fob and the basic alarm worked without doing anything. To activate the sensors see below...

Everything works as it should, but the security display on the cluster display doesn't show. Maybe you need to do something in Forscan to get it to show up. Hope this helps someone

Interesting that it does not have the enhanced security but at least it turns on from the fob

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.

I had this bookmarked for over a year.. just installed this AM, with no prior understanding of how the connections would work, this video and the install document got me up and running.. thank you so much!!
