Night Fury Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 '05 Pont GP GTP I guess what I want to know is what all disables the remote start? I know one is the check engine light... And I think another is a mis-start then a wait... But sometimes it seems to do it at random.... It works about 95% of the time though. I still haven't been too far away to start it either! w00t! Also, my Remote lock, remote start, and panic button work fine and from seemingly forever away, but I CAN NOT get the remote trunk or remote unlock to work...

3pt1lumina Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 I am pretty sure it is all controlled through the BCM. I also think you need a GM Tech II to re-program it. Here's my reasoning for saying this: I work at a Pontiac/Buick/GMC dealer. People are always bringing in cars and want the optional remotes put on their vehicles with the remote start option. I'm assuming most of these cars are equipped with the option so that is why this is possible. Anyways, the techs take about 20 mins to re-program the two remotes, and I know they hook up the GM Tech II... how it is all done I have no idea. Hopefully someone else will chime in on this.

1990lumina Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Any GM car with the factory remote start that I've seen has the option to turn it on your off in the information display thing 9oil %, mileage, etc..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Fury Posted January 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 I don't want to turn it off! And yess you can turn it off thru the DIC... I was just wondering what conditions disable the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismellrealbad Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 i think it may be an issue with whatever module controls keyless functions. those fuckers arent can-bus yet right? does unlocking work with the lock button and trunk popping work with the trunk button in the car? youll probably need a tech 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Fury Posted January 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Yes, the functions work fine from inside the car. And the Remote start still amazes me... I was deep inside the theater where I work, and my car was parked way out back and I tried it for the hell of it... I finally get out side and whaddya know! My car is running!
