check the 3A and both 30A fuses on the relay satellite. Also make sure that the ground wire is going to a chassis ground and not to something under the dash.

The remote start will activate but the starter never engages. Check for voltage on the purple starter wire two seconds after the remote start becomes active. If there is voltage present, skip to Step 4. If there is not voltage present, advance to Step 2.

Check the 30A fuses.

Make sure the purple starter wire is connected on the starter side of the optional starter kill relay.

Does the vehicle have an immobilizer? Some immobilizer systems will not allow the vehicle to crank if active.

Check connections. The two red heavy gauge input wires on the relay satellite should have solid connections. "T-taps", or "scotch locks" are not recommended for any high current heavy gauge wiring. Also, if the vehicle has more than one 12-volt input wire, then connect one red wire to each.

The vehicle starts, but immediately dies.

Does the vehicle have an immobilizer? The vehicle’s immo- bilizer will cut the fuel and/or spark during unauthorized starting attempts.

Is the remote start programmed for voltage sense? If so, the start time may not be set high enough, or you may have to adjust the voltage threshold in programming. Voltage sense will not work on some vehicles.
