Thanks for this info. I need to verify these things to the dealer. I just found out that the green w/ violet stripe was hooked to a plain red wire. Maybe this is the one why I can't bring the transmitter to learning mode.
What year/model is your truck?

The way travis had me test it was to manually latch the latch on the door and then use the roller rocker switch for the dome light bext to my headlight switch to verify door trigger. It would turn my test light on with the domelight. On my f150 there were four black/blue wires but only one worked that way.

All good info but I still have a question, will an aftermarket remote starter still activate your personal setting such as delayed headlights upon entry/exit and memory seats?
As you well know when you unlock your truck the seats and pedals will go back to the driver setting, in my case my wife is shorter thus the the seat is all the way up.

If he doesn't answer he's probably jammed under a dash or something. Just leave him a message. He's always quick to call back. He can tell ya what to look for better than me since I was going by his instructions.

Question: The older Ford (Code Alarm) Gold model (1L3Z-19G364-CA) is available on ebay at a pretty attractive price. Will this system work in the newer model F150s? Is there anything "different" that I'd have to do when wiring it in?
Thanks
Thanks

He actually turned me towards the Code CA530 for my wifes Expedition. He prewired it for me as well. The 530 has the same remote only much nicer carbon fiber look. Wife loves it an all I can say is "damn" with the range. I walked almost two blocks down the street I bet and the unit was still getting the signal.
Thanks for the info. I'm still debating. This is actually for a 2006 E-150. As far as I can tell, no PATS.
