I had a remote start installed at Best Buy/I did purchase it there. When I went to go pick up my car. It didn’t start, I had to leave it there pick it up the next day. The guy that installed the Remote start said “ my battery cable was loose“ Never had any issues with my battery cable being loose before this. Three days later my car wouldn’t start again. I returned to Best Buy and have them remove the remote start. A week later my car doesn’t wanna start again,And now I can’t get it to start at all. Please help
Thought I'd be slick and use the remote start so I could read the multimeter hooked up to the battery with the hood popped! Glad this short video popped up first. Thank you very much. Video liked.
One thing they should warn you about before deciding to get a remote starter is that it does not work well from behind the car. I have to be within 30 feet of the back of my car where it is in a detached garage, and then walk back inside the house to wait for the heater to warm the car up. I wanted this thing so I could start it from inside the house, but instead I have to go clear outside and walk up to the garage, then walk back to the house to wait. (Out in a parking lot, I can start it from 100 feet if I am the front of the car). It seems hardly worth the $350 I paid for it if I have to go outside a ways to use it to start my car at home.
My family has a 2012 Ford Escape with an aftermarket remote start but with a different problem. In our case the taillights and license plate lights won’t work if you start it with the ignition key, but do work only when you remote start the vehicle. The remote start system is made by Viper.
I installed the H011SAJ401 Subaru remote starter into a 2010 Outback. Everything works except the car will not start. goes into and out of service mode, beeps horn etc. Battery is at 12.6V. IF Subaru dealer service tech did not pair the starter brain box to the the vehicle security brain box, will the remote start not engage the starter motor?
I don’t know a whole lot about aftermarket systems, this info is mainly for factory remote starts, I would contact whoever makes the remote starter they would have a better idea.
Checked all of the above… still won’t work … well it works but this latest prestige alarm remote start only runs for 15 seconds …. Plus it’s not a genuine remote start as when you start it unlock the door turn the key to ignition and press the brake to put the car into drive the car shuts off every time …so you have to manually start the car again … security measure bullshit … because you own the car and have the key in your hand
Thx! I have a pro start recently took my car in to have spark plugs changed its worked for years and now all of a sudden it does not start and the shop won't help me, kind of pissed
i have Nustart 2 way remote starter and i use this when cold season comes., Now my issue i could remotely start my car however fob key wont lock or unlock door. even car shut off still unable . Anyone know how to fix this?
Remote start worked on my 2020 RAV 4 but few days ago i activated locking windows via physical key and unlocking windows via physical and remote key too by car scanner and then this remote start system decided to stop it's work Pressing 2 times lock button and holding it at the third time = no result to activate engine What's the problem and how to activate remote start?
I have a nustart and all key buttons function properly but when I try to start it, it turns on the screen in my car, makes a noise but doesn’t actually start the car, can anyone help?
@ Turn the car on accessory mode(for mine I had to turn the car on). With your foot on the brake, hit the auto start three times. Then say “I am not in Kansas anymore.” Ok, maybe not the last part.😜 My remote start worked after that.
My problem is that 1 out of 5 the car start but shuts down after 1 sec.... The rest of the time its perfectly fonctional ! Whats up with that ?!?!.! 2015 forester.
@@interestingchannel5661i hope so ! I'm thinking it might be the spark plugs ?? Mine does it quite often but always stars second times with no issue... It must be something stupid !

maybe go get a refund
Don't sound right. Check the battery.
it depends which one you get
Im havin the same issue i have a one way system
Awesome video👍👍👍
Will it work if ABS light is on
Hi. My Viper system starts the car but no longer unlocks the doors. You have any idea what the problem is? Thanks.
If my key fobs battery is dying will that make my key sound low and not remote start? Its like its trying
Wow! Didn't know about doors not being fully closed. Hopefully it's not the sensors as it sounds expensive to fix. Thanks.

Does the anti-theft system interfere with remote start? Mine starts the engine but then shortly shuts off and displays the anti-theft dash symbol.
Hmm good question, does your remote start ever work? Is it an aftermarket anti theft system?

Perfect for safety !
Is there a work around to bypass the check engine light so the remote will always work.

2001 Honda Pilot engine starts and stop by itself no key in ignition ,the next day my garage was full of fumes, help
My heat won’t start until I’m physically in the vehicle & put my foot on the brake.
Did you find a fix? Got this problem too.
Unfortunately I did not. I don’t even bother with remote start anymore especially if the electrical won’t start until I’m in the vehicle
That’s normal
Check to see if the remote start setting quiet start is on. If it is turn it off, and see if that works.
Yea my wife's car is the same, I'm trying to find the answer to this fix
Thanks!!
Hey dude this van is brand new ok 2 years old 22k miles.....it's worked like 2 times

Try doing the procedure to pair the fob.

Got one today and in the same boat :(
What if the tire low air sensor is on?
Won't effect it.
Thanks kurt
None of these apply to me and mine still won’t work on a 2015 Dodge Caravan
I would only add one more scenario. If your car was getting work done, it could be in safe mode. That is what ended up being my problem.
How do you kick it out of safe mode?
@ Turn the car on accessory mode(for mine I had to turn the car on). With your foot on the brake, hit the auto start three times. Then say “I am not in Kansas anymore.” Ok, maybe not the last part.😜 My remote start worked after that.
😂 Maybe I should shut my hood 😂
I had a new battery installed on my Chevy equinox and ever since that time the remote engine start up does not work.
Same
Mine will only start if I'm inside the car.
My problem is that 1 out of 5 the car start but shuts down after 1 sec.... The rest of the time its perfectly fonctional ! Whats up with that ?!?!.! 2015 forester.
I have same problem on Outback 2014
Maybe someone knows what the problem is?
