APPLY Dielectric grease (the same as small packets of, Spark-plug Dielectric grease OR Light bulb connection grease, purchased at any auto parts) Symptoms: Lock and Unlock buttons work as normal, but pressing Start does not produce any response from the vehicle.

It always worked great, but last fall after a couple days of heavy rain and finding a windshield leak on the pass side, both the remote start and keyless entry stopped working. Forgot to mention a little detail, the remote starter stops working and that we are using the original remote of the car for the remote starter. I have to manually set it before I leave the car, it continues to run, and then I hit the stop button once Im out of the car then its set for the night. Now you can control your vehicle's locks, security system, remote start system, and trunk release with your cell phone. lock/unlock features are working and same result with both remotes. Thank you.

Hit LOCK and TRUNK at the same time for 1/2 second I think your issue is Valet mode, not passive mode. didnt even know it was autostart equipped! It does act like it tries too and by that I mean that it will act like it has a dead battery in the truck. After almost a week it starts and shuts off immediately and then starts again and shuts off. I hit the lock button, then I did it again to hear the horn, then I pushed the remote start twice and it worked. I just get lights flashing she wont start. That said, if everything else is functioning properly, it could be that you have just put it into some sort of silent mode. You saved me hundreds. However you said that it is like the dead battery scenario.

When I start using remote starter, the heater or heated seats do not come on. Any ideas? Sorry I am late in responding..

The vehicle is to old to have its own security system to shut off the pump. i have a compustar car starter and when i go to start my car it will turn the car on multipul times but will not start. Linda, You would need to determine what brand and model remote starter you have you may be able to tell this by looking at the remote. It could be any number of things Id use this post as a guide and if you are not able to solve the problem, I would take it back to the shop that installed it and have then do a troubleshoot on it. I have to disconnect the battery and reconnect it to get everything working properly again. First you will need to find out what make and model starter it is and then you will need to contact the manufacturer or the original installer to get programming instructions for the remote.

Still, no car lights or horn honk when we try anything. I just had the battery replaced in the car, and now the remote does not start the car. Pauline, I really wish I could help.

In the morning I hit the button to start the car. the picture on it constantly shows the doors are unlocked, even after I push the lock button and it actually locks the doors It locks and unlocks the doors and starts the car, however I always have to go check to see if it is running because the remote doesnt show that either and doesnt show time remaining before it turns off. Hi: Thanks. when I press start, the lights flash 15 times quickly. Hi Mitch, I came across your topic and it helped me last time when my remote starter went into valet mode. I have done the valet reset on each remote, trying it several times with no luck. Thoughts? I have a Prestige remote starter not a Compustar.
