FAILED REMOTE-START
There are several different installation factors and devices that must work together in order for your vehicle to
Remote-Start properly. In some cases a failed Remote Start is not the fault of the Remote-Starter itself. Here are
some things to consider when the Remote-Starter fails.
• Unmaintained Engine. If you have problems starting the vehicle with the key then the Remote-Starter will have
the same difficulty.
• Low Battery. A battery’s voltage can drop to less than 4 volts DC (1/3 of the original) during cold weather
starting. Ensure your battery is working properly and is able to provide the proper current needed to start
the vehicle in extreme temperatures.
• Low Fuel, or water in the fuel tank. Keep your fuel tank full as much as possible to prevent the build-up of
condensation in the tank..
• A corroded or broken Hood Pin switch. Visually inspect the hood pin switch frequently. Cover with a dialectic
grease to prevent corrosion.
• Trailer wiring. Corroded or improperly wired trailer wiring may cause the park light signal to bleed into the
brake signal. This will cause the Remote-Starter to shut down as soon as the park lights are turned on.
• Problems with the Bypass Kit (if installed). If you are able to put the Remote-Starter into Ready Mode, Idle
Mode, or Turbo Mode, but you are unable to Remote-Start the vehicle then the Bypass Kit may be failing.
Several Remote-Start attempts with a failed Bypass Kit may lock your vehicle for several hours.
• Dash warning lights. The dash should display in exactly the same way when either starting the vehicle with the
key, or with the Remote-Starter. If the dash displays any warning lights (Check Engine, ABS, or Theft) once Re-
mote-Started then something is wrong. Stop using the Remote-Starter and have it looked at immediately.
TIP: If your vehicle is experiencing any problems either starting or running with the key have it looked at by the
Remote-Starter’s installer first. Having the vehicle worked on by another service centre may void any warranty and/
or guarantees on the Remote-Starter and its Installation. Additionally the original installation centre may refuse all
fees incurred by the latter service centre (if any).
