The vehicle will start, but will only run for 10 seconds.

1. Is the remote start programmed for voltage sense? Try programming the unit for low voltage

reference. If this does not work, a tach wire should be used.

2. Check diagnostics.

The climate control system does not work while the unit is operating the vehicle.

Either the wrong accessory wire is being energized or more than one ignition or accessory wire
must be energized in order to operate the climate control system.
