You have to be within Bluetooth range and connected via Bluetooth for those to function. This is by design.

The other features, lock, unlock and remote start can be done out of range of Bluetooth.

Ok, well then re-setup PaaK. If Bluetooth isn't connected then those icons will remain greyed out. There's no getting around that. At this point you have to figure out if it's the phone or the car. My guess, and 99.9999% of the time, it's the phone.

I had the same problem, and after removing the PAAK completely and re-setting it up, it started functioning. I think it has to do with correct pairing of the phone with FordPass. The Bluetooth connection is 5 numbers followed by MACH E. I had that but it didn't work. So I deleted that Bluetooth connection, removed PAAK completely and started over and it worked after setup. I just tried it again - walking up the car with no key. After I "woke the car up" by pressing a door button, it connected and unlocked the doors, all icons were not grayed out, and Bluetooth was connected. FordPass 4.28.0
