hornet auto start every day, 476t remote

The manuals are available to download in .pdf - I linked thru the www.directed.com website. Just use the drop down menu to select what model you have. http://www.hornetcarsecurity.com/Support/Guides.aspx good luck!

I have not tried calling DEI tech support. I'll try that. My remote is a Hornet 476T, 4 button: lock, unlock, AUX, Horn(panic). See it on this page--> http://www.al-eds.com/Directed-Electronics-476T-p17969.html?gclid=CMTBspWD8JYCFQpuGgodCye_qw I start the car by pressing lock and unlock at the same time for a sec.    All 4 buttons have a function.

i have a hunch. how many times do the lights flash when you start the car with the remote 1 or 4 times? if they flash more than once then that means pushing the lock and unlock buttons at the same time is sending the alarm into something other than a normal remote start. i was reading a hornet manual of the hornet 563T remotestarter and it said that pushing the lock and unlock buttons together enter the timer mode but it also starts the car. also try pushing the horn/panic button twice, maybe 3 times in a row. does the car start? if it does than that is the actual remote start button. a normal remote start usually requires that you push a button twice unless the installer programmed something different. anyway please try this and let me know

Hey I have hornet 2-way alarm on my GTP don't know if it will help you but the 24hour on it is lock and panic together once and it starts in 24 hours or turns it off if its set.

...mine is the 554t

Hey soundnsecurity, I saw that manual too - if I remember right, that's for the remote with the * button. But when I push lock & unlock simultaneously to do a remote start, the lights flash once then they come on solid once the car starts (on the H2 there are truck lights lining the top of the car that are on when headlamps on). This is the remote start I've been using for years and I've only just now had this 24-hr start thing going on. Pushing the panic twice, thrice - appears to do nothing at all. When I press & hold, the alarm goes off, PANIC~. Also I notice that when I remote-start without first turning alarm off, the alarm goes off (always has been this way). I guess this makes sense, but thought I'd mention it. fgrant98 I tried using the lock & panic together and it seems to have reset the time it auto starts, now at 3:20p (time I tried it, day before). But it didn't stop it. Thanks for the responses guys, any other ideas?

"Also I notice that when I remote-start without first turning alarm off, the alarm goes off (always has been this way). I guess this makes sense, but thought I'd mention it. " ah ha, now im pretty sure that your remote starter is a completely separate device from your alarm and that the installer found a way to program one single remote to operate both. if it were an all-in-one unit the alarm wouldn't go off when you start it while armed. now seeing that this is probably the case there is really nothing i could tell you to do without actually seeing what is under your dash and how it is wired together. the remote you have is for the alarm only, this is why there is no separate remote start button on your keypad. what most likely is happening is that when you press the lock and unlock buttons together it is just activating a extra aux channel from the alarm that send a signal to the separate remote start module that tells it to start the car. the only thing i can tell you to do is have somebody at a shop check it out and until then you can still stop it temporarily for your trip by grounding the hoodpin like i said a few posts earlier.sorry i couldn't help more

I'm not sure I agree that the alarm is separate from my remote starter. I downloaded and read several manuals and there were plenty that had the same 4 button remote and directed you to start the unit by pressing lock and unlock simultaneously. but you're right, it doesn't make sense that the alarm goes off. I attempted a few other things (combos of buttons) and when the car started yesterday, the alarm didn't sound...   go figure! (and this time it wasn't in valet mode) WHERE'S THE HAMMER!!!??

Hey guys. Like i said before, i dont have any manuals to my starter/security system (hronet obvioulsy) i was seeing if you guys could help me out. i dont even know the model number of my system in my tahoe. i have the same remote as all of you (lock,unlock,AUX,horn symbol)..
