Has anyone else had this problem, using the remote start the a/c and radio does not come on until the key is turned into the ingition. It previously worked a couple of weeks ago, I plan to make an appointment to have it checked out. Just was wandering if anyone has run into this.

I have the factory remote start, an mine has always been like that. When using the remote start, the AC or heat would come on, depending what the outside temp was, but as soon as the key is turned to ON, then the climate controls would come on to the setting last at. Same as radio, does not come on using remote start till key is turned on.

Thanks for the reply, according to the dealership, no matter what the temp is at least the radio should come if it was on when turned off. I remember the first couple of times i use it the instrument cluster was also lite up. Then when the key was turned everything went off and came back on.

Never had the radio on or dash lights up when I remote started my 2010 Duramax. Just the AC was blowing on whatever my auto temp was set to.

OE remote start will absolutely not have the radio on until the key is turned on.

I must have been imagining things, you are all correct, dealership says dash and radio will not come on, but blower does not blow hard. Just like it was on the low setting, still taking to dealership to check the blower. Again thanks for the replies.

When the climate control is set to auto, like when you remote start, the blower will not "rev up" until the engine warms up a little. I guess it senses there is no need for the blower until there is some heat to blow.

That's what I've noticed with my '06.

Brought truck to dealership and found that it is functioning properly, you are all correct, a/c will not blow hard until the key is turned in the ignition. And definitely the radio and instrument cluster does not come on. Must have been a monday morning when i had tried this, lol

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
