I have my climate control settings set to “last setting”. If I get in the truck and start it, it remembers the last settings. If I remote start the truck, the steering wheel heater turns on and the passenger seat warmer turns on at full setting. It’s very odd. I think the previous owner may have messed with something. Has anyone experienced this? Any areas to look into?

Only in cold weather or all the time?

If I remote start after sitting overnight, only the drivers seat and steering wheel come on at max heat if cold enough outside to meet parameters. Otherwise, it starts with whatever I left it set at when I shut the truck off for both driver and passenger seat. Hope that helps.

Hello, Have a 2019 F150 Raptor. Does anyone have an idea how to set the climate control, when started with the remote key ?
There must be an outside temp setting, giving instruction to the truck to start the heater for example. How to change this ?
Also, is there a way to set up the remote key with whatever climate control I need. EG, AC on, seat AC on full etcetc. Is there a way to set the key up ?
Best
