Remote Start - Manual Trans using FORScan

[Buck Your Bronco]

And on the key fob, as far as I can tell, cannot get anybody IRL to confirm, the manuals or lower trims (without remote start) use a 315MHz key fob, and the higher/Auto trims use a 902MHz key fob. This also explains why the keyless entry number pad is a different part number for with/without remote start. I do not know why they use different frequencies. The remote start keys are supposed to get a confirmation from the car if the remote start was successful, red blink did not start, green blink engine started successful. Can anybody confirm this on their broncos? There should be a way to change frequencies thru Forscan, I believe thru IPC, but again, was not able to get that to work for me.

Interesting - those frequencies aren't close, and the more immediate question is if the radio inside the Bronco can handle both. Do you have confirmation that the frequencies are software-defined instead of requiring a radio module swap?

No, just speculating. The forscan forum has a thread where other cars in Europe are able to swap frequencies based on forscan, but that’s in the IPC which I’ve been having issues reprogramming. Have a request into the forscan developers so just in waiting

The technical change isn’t the issue or the challenge. When a neutral switch goes bad on a bike, or on a car with ASS, there’s a human on top of a brake lever/pedal to react to a mechanical failure mode. Not so much with remote start.

If the switch fails ....its not like it will suddenly shift itself into gear?...?!

@Buck Your Bronco Are there any updates to the progress of getting remote start to work on the manual?

I really hope someone cracks this!
