  1. Whoever figured out that the computer is looking for 2.1k ohms of resistance in order to enable the remote start, thank you! I bought a pack of 2.2k ohm resistors on Amazon for just over $5, soldered one in and it all works. I did it a little differently though. Solder in the resistor to connect the black wire and brown/green wire coming into connector prior to the latch switch. I used a few layers of shrink tubing and electrical tape to protect it from the elements and then tie-wrapped it up to keep it from flopping around. Beats replacing the whole latch assembly or waiting for the dealership to fix the problem either under warranty or for a few hundred bucks. Easy fix, good luck.
