[QUOTE="WestCoastDan, post: 458476, member: 23120"] If I'm not mistaken, the factory remote start is quite a bit smarter than we expect it to be. Will not work if the doors are open. Will not work if the trans is out of park (might work in neutral, never tried it). Engine will run for about 10 minutes then turn off if you don't insert the key and turn the ignition to run. Cannot "redo" a RS if it times out until the ignition is cycled. Radio and other electronics do not work when remote start was activated, until AFTER the key has been inserted into the ignition & turned to run. Remote Start (RS) will NOT work if there is an active CEL or fault code. And apparently it will not work if the hood is lifted. [/QUOTE]
