SSM 45893 – 2017 Escape – EMTC – Ford Original Accessory/Factory Invoiced Accessory (FIA) Remote Start – Unable To Enable HVAC Module Settings During Kit Installation
Some 2017 Escape vehicles equipped with Electronic Manual Temperature Control (EMTC) may lack the ability to enable the Heater Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) module settings when installing a FIA scalable or Ford Original Accessory (FOA) remote start kit.
The remote start – HVAC parameter identified in the product installation instructions may be missing in the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) Programmable Parameters Remote Start menu.
During remote start kit installation use IDS release 100.05 or higher and enable the HVAC module feature under the Programmable Parameters Remote Start menu.
Failure to enable the HVAC remote start parameter will result in a lack of HVAC operation during a remote start event.
Service Information & Reprogramming
Software necessary to program electronic modules to the latest calibration level, perform module initialization (PATS), and set Programmable Parameters on Ford, Lincoln
and Mercury
vehicles.
Ford Module Programming (FMP) is a software application that allows subscribers to program electronic modules on Ford, Lincoln
and Mercury
vehicles. It can be used for:
- Reprogramming emission-related (OBDII) modules on some vehicles manufactured in 1995 and all vehicles manufactured from 1996 to the present
- Reprogramming or reconfiguring non-emission-related modules on many vehicles (UBP and MS-CAN not supported)
In addition, module initialization (PATS) functions such as Keycode Erase/Reprogram and PCM Parameter Reset can be done using this application.
J2534 Device
using Ford Module Programming (FMP) can Reprogram and Configure most Modules.
