MyKey + PAAK

[TowPro]

can we program a PAAK into a MyKey slot? (yes I have read what I could find on this)

Also, if we have 2 phones programmed as PAAK, and we both get into the car with our phones, which Phone wins the memory position?

If I unlock the car from the passenger side (me and my PAAK) before she unlocks the car from the drivers side with her PAAK, will her Memory position (1) still become since she came into DS door?

Ideal would be if her PAAK was MyKey for memory 1, and my PAAK was not in memory, than when the few times I drive, I just push 3, wait for seat and get in.

Also, the setting where seats move back when shut off car, is that setting unique for memory position ? (I want it, she does not)

1) No, PaaK cannot be a MyKey, because the procedure requires insertion in the slot to program. Procedure in the manual.

2) Whoever is in the driver's seat.

3) Yes, driver wins.

4) Each phone can be tied to a profile. Each profile matches a button. As answered prior, PaaK cannot be MyKey.

5) Seats move back for everyone. The closer they are to back all the way, the less they move.

I don’t think MyKey is what you think it is. You really just seem to be asking if you can link a profile to PaaK. As Rick said, yes you can.

Thanks everyone. General, your right. I now see mykey is more to program limits, like a new drivers.

yes I guess a profile is linked to the Memory button (1-3) and its these profiles I need each phone linked do. And its ahsame the seat back on engine off applies to all profiles, this means I can't use it since she hates it, (and its her car). I love it in my F150.

PAAK can be used for a MyKey. That's how I initially set it up for my son.

Really? How do you put it in the slot?

Supposedly but definitely not always. In both my Mach E and my Lightning, if my wife drove last and is in the passenger seat with a fob, the fob beats the phone (in this case an iPhone 12pro).

Think of it as rock-paper-scissors with inconsistent rules.

You select the mobile device option and then I believe press the lock button on that phone but it's been a while so I don't quite remember.

So rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock?

ok, so I got my phone installed, and yes if I open passenger door with my phone, then wife opens drivers door with her phone, the seat moves forward.

but Now I can't get the seat to move to my memory location when I open with my phone.

What doesn’t she like about it? I wouldn’t have thought it would be objectionable.

At 5' tall, when the seat goes all the way back she can't even reach the steering wheel

Amen brother! I keep hoping Ford makes portions their software open source so we can change behaviors. There are times I think the software was developed by drunken lemurs.

Once the MyKey is set up, how can I change settings. It's acting like I'm the guest with the FOB
