it depends on what the system in the car is set up for.

just because the fob has 4 button, doesnt mean the unit had an output for each button...find the info on the systen that is in the car and see what it says

Well it is the stock alarm that comes on the 2001 Ford Escape. I think that there was a post with the system info in it. I know that the system is easy to add the remote start so i figure it has an extra output since i dont have remote start. I know people at www.escape-central.com have changed from the 3 button FOB to the 4 button FOB and they all work. all i need to know are some ideas of what to hook up and how to do it. ANY IDEAS WELCOME.
