'05 altima remote start issue

your settings should be 1. Door Lock - whatever of the 2 work 2. Parking lights - Off (there is a delay which you dont want anyways) 3. OEM Alarm - OEM Enable the dball sends factory data codes which mimic the factory alarm. if you have this feature off, when the factory alarm arms those "codes" are not understood by the keyless entry module. oem alarm enabled wont set your factory alarm off. Only the premium version came with a factory alarm anyways. the keyless entry module still uses those exact codes. change the settings and post your results i will be using fortin/idata combinations only now.

I'm with you Ted. It seems like everybody on here that uses the xpresskits has had issues... haha. I haven't heard many from the idatalink/fortin people.Kenny

Okay...I got around to trying the settings on the DB-ALL and no change. I had it set to enable, disable, and no action. All three had the same results. The door locks and trunk would work well for a few minutes, then I would move the car or start it and then nothing again with the Python remote. Factory key fob still works fine. Also, the light on the DB-ALL still lights when the lock/unlock/trunk button is pushed, but no result. As a note, this feature did work flawlessly when it was D2D. Not sure if that helps with troubleshooting. Thanks guys!

the solution: buy a fortin or idatalink module you can connect the d2d cable and still have w2w connections. try that and see if your problem stops.Ted

@tedmond...Thanks for all the advice, and I think that your latest solution is the best. Just remove the DB-ALL all together. Which unit would you suggest, the Fortin or the Idatalink? I have no idea about either one of these or which one I need. Again, I apologize for my ignorance when it comes to this stuff. I just don't want another issue like I am having with the Xpresskit. Thanks!

do as i suggested. reconnect the DBI d2d cable from the unit to the bypass. You can run the d2d in parallel with the w2w, incase some features dont work over data.Ted
