    I was seriously considering having a professional install this until I found this video -- it allowed me to get the installation done in less than 30 minutes once I had all the panels off and the harnesses exposed. I appreciate the time and effort you put into making this easy to follow. Awesome video!

      @@yagneshcontractor8793 it’s a plug and play setup and that’s why it doesn’t void warranty.. I have oem dash cam, lane departure, lane assist, collision control and BMS on my 2023 Rav4 LE Hybrid keystart.. everything works perfectly fine after the install.. no cutting or splicing of any wires.. imo install it you won’t regret it :)

    I installed it about 2 years ago on my 2020 Rav4 XLE Premium, but I also installed the celular module so I can remote start it with my cell phone and open the car door with my phone (Just in case I don't have my keys and want to get something). Since I have dash cams in my car with battery packs I programed the module to stay on for 60 minutes instead of 15. This way I charge my batteries during the weekend when I don't go out much. Good job.

    • @smitheys

      Wow! 60 minute run time, that’s crazy! Sounds like you have a decent setup going on too, especially with the cell module. I’m broke, can’t afford luxury right now. I looked and they were pricey.
      I appreciate that!

      wat cell module do you have and wat battery pack are you using. I have the same 2020 rav4 xle hybrid. but i already have the start-x installed, and probably going to get an igla security module installed as well. thanks for sharing also.

    Does this have an overtake feature? Meaning does it turn off when I open the door or will it keep running and I just insert the key press the brake and go? Thanks for the excellent video

    • @smitheys
      @smitheys  10 днів тому

      No, it’s just turn the key, hit the brakes, shift and go! Well, for the gas model. I don’t know about the hybrids or push to start.

      I really liked 12voltsolutions remote starts. It got pricey so I found an alternative. This kit is pretty good too. I haven’t had any issues installing it in a RAV4 or 4Runner.

      If you have that option, sure, but mine did not. The lower trims don’t have that feature. And unlock button?? It’s supposed to start the car with 3 presses of the lock button.

    Thanks for the tutorial, gonna try this on my 2021 Rav 4 LE before next winter. Is there any downside to installing this? Will it mess up any computer components in any way?

    • @smitheys
      @smitheys  7 місяців тому

      No problem! There isn’t any downside and it doesn’t hurt anything electronically. The only thing this kit does is when it’s remote started there will be a low tire light on the dash and a message on the radio until you turn the key and go. I don’t mind it too much because if it didn’t do that, the car would turn off when you opened the door (like some kits do), that was their work around (I called and asked them). I’ve had it installed a year now, with absolutely no issues.

    Hi, What is the range distance to start the car? Can you add some device to extend the range?

    • @smitheys
      @smitheys  6 місяців тому

      So with just the kit, your range is however long your stock keyless is now. They do make an extender that works a mile or 2 away and they also make another kit to unlock it with your phone with unlimited miles (connects to a cell network, if you have service of course). I have this kit and the extender kit, here’s the install on that: ua-cam.com/video/TpWpSUm8iWY/v-deo.html

    • @smitheys
      @smitheys  6 місяців тому

      Hahahah, yeah it’s definitely in there pretty tight! You have to press the tab and pull pretty hard while rocking the whole clip back and forth or side to side. I thought I was gonna break it when I had to remove that huge connector. You got it! Good luck. Haha.

      @smitheys Thanks for the quick reply! I managed to get it off. Here's another question: When you bring it back inside and program it and get the 100% Complete and need to bring it back in your car do you need to restart the blue light process earlier in the video or just plug it all at once?

    • @smitheys
      @smitheys  6 місяців тому

      @leri3365 just plug in and go! Don’t hold any buttons. You should be good to go at that point.

    I get a vehicle alert on my radio of tire pressure warning system. I was wondering if you or anyone has heard of this issue with the Start-X on a 2022 Rav4. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

    • @smitheys
      @smitheys  11 місяців тому

      It’s completely normal. The only way they could get it to work around all of Toyotas safety features is to start it without reading your tire pressure. Once you put the key in and put your foot on the break and go, it’ll turn off. The message on the radio just hit ok and it’s gone. If you let it run for awhile after startup the message will come back. If you start it, get in, and go the message won’t appear on the radio.
