Why is my Ford Escape remote not working?

All you have to lose is ten minutes or so. (It’s an old Windows trick, but there may be some code that isn’t being run because your Escape “knows” it’s already enabled. By disabling and then re-enabling it, that may give the software the chance to set things right.)
