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 Remote-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).
