The remote works with the locks and alarm. It will start the car twice but it dies within seconds. After you try starting it twice the the next tries will do nothing. If you unplug the battery for a few minutes you again can start it up twice. The ring and black wire all look good. It really feels like a safety issue.



The other thing that bothers me is I didn't pull the key lock out before i pulled the entire unit out. The instructions (which were really well done) have you do all these extra steps first before you pull the whole thing out of the car. Obviously my way was much simpler which makes me think by not pulling the key lock mechanism out first before sliding the unit out of the steering column I tripped some type of safety switch.



Any ideas appreciated
