OEM Remote Start Help!

[johncomp99]

Hoping someone here is able to give me some better answers than my dealer. I purchased a used 2012 Expedition EL Limited earlier this year, the previous owner had the Ford OEM one-button 100 series remote start system installed...I’ve ended up using that feature a ton and wanted to the longer range bi-directional version that was available for that series.

The dealer called Ford Key and they said if I bought the DL3Z-15K601-A remote and a DL3Z-15603-C Aerial ASY/Antenna Asy I could use my existing harnesses and module and be good to go.

After purchasing I took it in to the dealer to install the new parts and they said they couldn’t make it work because there was no way to connect the bi-directional antenna to my existing module.

They said I would need the AL1Z 19G364 A: Kit- Remote Starter, but that the kit is discontinued and not an order-able

Also got these part numbers in the picture, not sure why.

my question is, what modules and parts does this kit include and is there anyway to use these key fobs and antenna I’ve already bought?

Select year make and model,
Look for "accessory installation", click it
Scroll down to electrical and look for remote start 2012 truck

Do you think they are saying that I have to add the anti theft system in order to use my bi-directional fobs and antenna?

Ok, so I finally got enough time and light to craw under the panel and pull out my module. Looks like they are correct, this module has no connector for the new bi-directional antenna like what is shown on the installation instructions.

Am I just SOL or can I get a module from another vehicle that would work, or are these modules tied to a specific model?

It almost looks like the software cartridge is where the extra antenna socket should be.

I do have the mykey with Sync Securilock Interface Module installed also.
