bypass module issue, 07 navigator

Installed a new xk04 into a 2007 Lincoln Navigator only a few weeks ago after the previous modules were unlearned from vehicle anti theft system. DEI had stated that it was an issue they have heard about a few times. They told my boss to add a relay to the TX green wire from module. 87a and 85 to ground, 86 to ignition 12v+, pin 30 to car side of cut wire and pin 87 to module. Has anyone had experience with the same issue? I did a remote starter last Saturday in a 2006 Ford explorer and it came back in today with same issue. My boss from that job had a key in box installed by other installer and that fixed that vehicle.The wire I'm test'n isn't doin' what it's supposed to be doin'... I am so glad I printed that tech sheet, with the wrong info.

Do it right the first time... or I might have to fix it for ya

xk04-pkford will not work on most 06+ ford vehicles, it needs to be reflashed to xk04-pkf3 and the blue wire then needs to be hooked up to ignition. Shaughn Murley

Will the xko4-pkford work on a 2008 Escape?

no, it needs to be reflashed as well. I have stopped using the xk04 on new fords all together, and use the ads-tb-fmShaughn Murley

If you fail on your first attempt, at least destroy all evidence you tried!

i just had a 2007 escape go south as well with an xk04. would the reflashing to a different firmware have solved this problem?
