04 ESCB 1500 - Security Disabling Ignition?

[fastblackcar94]

I have a CrimeStopper Cool Start remote start installed in my car. The shop that did the work said that I needed additional boxes/modules to work with the newer style truck. Occasionally, when I press the remote start button, the car will just keep turning over for about 5-10 seconds, then stop and retry. The lock symbol flashes on my cluster. Even with the key in the ignition, the car will not start unless the key is left in the ignition in the run position for 10 minutes. I have been lazy about getting to the shop to get this repaired since it is about 30 min away and I haven't really used it recently (summertime ) Just the other day, I inserted the key into the ignition and the same thing happened! I assumed this was a problem with the remote start module, but now it's doing it just when trying to start normally! Any reason why the remote start would work most of the time, but cause security errors like this occasionally? My dad has an 03 8.1L Suburban and my bro has a 03 TrailBlazer, both with remote start systems, and neither have this problem. Did the shop neglect to install the required equipment necessary for the 03+ trucks on mine?

It looks like you need a bypass kit....

Did the shop install a Passlock module-I don't see how they couldn't have? If not you need one, if so it sounds like it's not working correctly. Take it back to the shop.

You mean that the remote start doesn't work sometimes? Without a PassLock bypass, it shouldn't remote start.

 

I'd look into a DEI 555L or the previously mentioned ByPassKits unit.
