For anyone who is interested.

I just completed installation of a Code Alarm 5053 remote start kit with Ford SecuriLock PATS bypass kit 8L3Z-19G365-BA in my 2006 F150 FX4 with factory keyless entry, and wanted to share the resources I pieced together to get it done. This remote start kit has keyless entry and remote start, but no alarm, so I didnt have to worry about tapping into door switches or wiring shock sensors or anything else too extreme.

First of all, this wasn't a super easy job at all. I have some minor electrical wiring background, and I'm an IT guy, so electronics normally don't scare me. But this one took a lot of research because there is no vehicle specific instructions at all. Once I peiced together which connections I actually needed, and which ones I could ignore, it wasn't too terrible, but I still had plenty of times I felt quite lost. Its also a pretty good pain in the rear to get at all the wires, re-route them, and tuck them up nice and neat in a cramped space.

Alas, after all my research, this is the wire mapping I came up with:

Here are a couple of the resources I used to create the wire mapping:

And this helped confirm how I needed to wire up the ford PATS bypass module:

And when I had trouble locating the right wires to tap into for door lock/unlock:

And this is where you get the pink/green and pink/yellow wires for door unlock/lock, down in the wire track (NOT the pink/green or pink/yellow going into the green connector about 8 inches higher up...):


With the kick panel removed you have access to the ignition wires and the horn:


I mounted the Ford PATS bypass and the Code Alarm module high on the kick panel under the dash, and there was enough wire to run the little transponder ring all the way over to the key cylinder. Here you can see the ring installed around the key cylinder and wires ran down the steering column, which join up to the other remote start wiring and route all the way back to the drivers side kick panel area:


I'm quite happy with the Code Alarm kit. I think my only complaints is that I wish the keyless worked exactly like the stock keyless. By that I mean I didn't wire up a priority door unlock (which unlocks drivers door only on first unlock, then the passenger door on the second unlock), and I noticed that if I lock the doors with the code alarm keyless it doesnt auto-dim the interior lights, it leaves them on to time-out after x number of seconds. I neglected to tap into the interior illumination circuits so this behavior may be because of that. But other than that, it works great.

Bring on winter!
