tpm419419 Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Most remote starts can be programmed for different time options. Bring it back to dealer so they can adjust it. You may have 10, 20, and possibly 30 min start options. Some also have a program to start the vehicle once an hour and then shut down if it is very cold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbf2530 Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 (edited) Hey fellas, on wifes 08 edge limited the ford remote start only runs 10mins then shuts down. Any way of increasing timer? Dealer only option? Here in Alberta 10mins is not enough, thanks Hi 95f150. :D If the information contained in other threads concerning this subject is correct, there are at least two timer settings for the Ford Remote Start system: 10 minutes and 15 minutes. I can not personally vouch for that information, but have seen it repeatedly posted. And while I believe the Dealer must make the programming change, the Remote Start User Guide should answer that question. Sorry, I do not have one available at the moment to look at. As Tom (tpm) stated above, the Dealer (or the Remote Start User Guide) is probably the best place to find the definitive answers to these questions. Or if someone has other/better information sources, perhaps they can post a link to assist you. Good luck. :beerchug: Edited December 7, 2009 by bbf2530 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi sirteman. :D You do not mention which model/version of the Ford Remote Start you have. However, you can try here: LINK: Ford Accessory User Guides In the "Select Type" dropdown, choose "Owners Guides". Then in the "Select Description" dropdown, choose "Electronics". You will then have a choice of three system PDF's to choose from. Hopefully, one is correct for your system. Hope this information helps. Good luck. :beerchug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
