The Ford EcoSport has a remote start as an option, and it can be done in two ways. The first is the app you can download on your phone. This will Make your phone the key for the car. If you don't want to do this then you can get a normal key fob. If the key fob is not working then you need a new battery. All key fobs use the same type of battery, which is a cr2032 battery. These are small coin-shaped batteries and they will cost you about 5 dollars each on average. You can find them in the same place you would normal batteries. To change the battery you will need to remove the back panel of the fob.Some fobs are different than others. You may be able to simply pull down on the back and have the piece slide off. If so then you can simply remove the old battery and put the new one in its place.However, you may need to remove a couple of tiny screws before you can do this. They are not hard to get out, as long as you have a small enough screwdriver on hand.

You have to down load the Ford pass app from fords web site.Then you have to register your vehicle with ford.You have to have internet access on your phone.Follow the instructions on fords web site to setup your vehicle to operate the remote start. There is no key fob to remote start the vehicle. I don't know if the base ecosport model has the remote start feature. Mine is an se model.

My 2020 Ecosport has remote start, but can only be operated with the Ford connect app. There is no remote start button on the key fob.
