My wife's 300 has a mopar remote start installed by the dealer around 2 years ago, work fine till last week. It'll start just fine, and then shut off in around 5 seconds, try it again it'll do the same thing, start for 5 secconds, and shut off. Any ideas would be apprciated.

 

will it start up by the normal key?

 

Yes, everything else is as it should be, it's just the thing with the remote start runs 5 seconds, and shuts down

 

anyone else have any suggestions?

 

i have a question kinda not related to this but kinda is. i want to get a remote start installed in my pacifica i was wondering ball park how much it would cost and it they program it to the key i already have or if i need to carry another remote.

 

No they program it to your exsisting key, it runs about I think 450 or so, if I had the install booklet that comes with the kit, I remember there was something in there about my fault that shows up.

 

Could it be a door switch that is malfunctioning? Maybe the under hood switch is vibrating and shutting the engine? It must be a switch some where, maybe the brake light switch? The run time should be programmable but I doubt that a 5 second run time isan option.
My factory remote start on the 07 Hemi Ram will only let you remote start 2 times between normal key start cycles.

Good Luck
