Troubleshooting: Remote Start The remote start will not activate the remote start 1. Check remote startup diagnostics. 2. Is the neutral safety switch plugged in and turned on? 3. If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, make sure the remote start is programmed for Automatic Transmission mode. 4. Is the remote programmed to the system? 5. Can the remote start be activated manually by applying a ground pulse to the H1/10 White/Blue wire? 6. Check the harnesses and their connections.
1. Is the remote start programmed for voltage sense? If this does not work, a tach wire should be used. 2. Check shutdown diagnostics. The climate control system does not work while the unit is operating the vehicle. 1. 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. 2.
