Remote start needs to be enabled on a 2008 Focus?

Question

Looking into doing an install on a 2008 Focus.  Came across this thread:
https://fortin.ca/en/qa/103382/09-focus-remote-start-works-great!-However-the-heater-fan-does-not-run-untill-the-key-is-turned-on./

Wondering if one of the Fortin guys can verify if Forscan is needed or not.  Haven't come across this before.

Answer 1

Hello,

No it is not needed.

 

On this vehicle the ign and accessory circuits are powered so the heater controls will work when remote started.

 

Best regards.
