Lincoln MKC issues with heated driver's seat activating on remote start, radio turning on in reverse, and black backup screen requiring new battery after APIM replacement on Lincoln MKC

Some Lincoln MKC owners report experiencing issues with the heated driver's seat not activating during remote start, which may be linked to the Thermal Electric Device (T.E.D.) that controls the heating function. Additionally, some owners have encountered a black backup screen after replacing the Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM), indicating a potential power-related issue that might require a new battery to restore proper functionality. It is advisable for owners facing these problems to consult with a certified Lincoln technician or dealership for accurate diagnosis and resolution to ensure their Lincoln MKC operates optimally.
