Ford Sport-Trac remote start problem

Not to butt in but the ford bypass is a similar style to the 555f. The problem with these is that the transponder in them will freeze and not work in cold weather. That's where the PKF really shines. You are making it a little hard on yourself if you're using a relay from the dark blue wire to trigger your bypass. You can use the blue (-) ignition out from the 3 pin connector to drive your bypass directly. Actually, we carry a version of the PKF from Omega that plugs directly into all Omega remote starts. It is $19.95 but it doesn't include shipping. I hope this helps even more. Mike

Mike, tell me more about this Omega bypass. What is involved? How does it plug in? Do you have any technical specs on it? Will it work on my 2001 Sport-Trac?

You can check out the installation sheet at http://www.kickyride.com/db-pkfinstallsheet.pdf. It consists of 5 wire connections at the PATS receiver on the ignition switch. Then you just plug in the small 3 pin connector to your RS-7K. It functions just like an extra key (like the 555F but without temperature related short comings). Another thing to keep in mind is that most of these bypass kits give the typical programming procedure. Most of them do not tell you that some ford vehicles vary from this "key learn" procedure. The best thing to do is consult your vehicle's owner's manual on how to add additional ignition keys. That is the sure fire way to program one of these bypasses. If you are interested in the bypass, just email us off the forum and we'll get you fixed up.Mike
