2020 Ford F350 key takeover and trans "bump"

0 votes
Customer just called me and stated that after remote starting his truck if he presses the brake it won't shut the vehicle off. If he puts the key in the ignition and then presses the brake, takes the key out, the truck will shut off. When I did the install using an evo-fort3, pressing the brake did shut the truck off with the key not in the ignition. He also states that when the remote start starts his vehicle it feels like the transmission engages for a split second. It is and automatic. He says it feels like someone steps on the rear bumper.

The install you did simply activates the OEM starter in the bcm, so I doubt it is causing the transmission to "bump" when remote started.
