I have 2004 GMC Yukon XL with a clifford rs3.5 remote start. about a week ago I started having a problem with the accessories coming on during remote start. Most of the time the accessories do not come on when I remote start the car. The battery light on the dash is lit and nothing comes on. The car starts just fine. When I hit the brake the battery light goes out and all the accessorie come on.

Does anybody have any idea why this just started happening? Is there a setting for the alarm that has to be changed. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Bill

i've seen some crazy things happen when you don't fire your ignitions in the right order as well. ignition is pink. 2nd ignition is white. I'd double check this as well.

I checked all of the connections and they are correct.

Are there any settings for the alarm. Sometimes everything comes on and works just fine and sometimes the car starts but none of the accessories come on.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Bill

No it's not. It's a 5.3 V8 gas engine.

I'm sure U checked connections, but did U check (with meter) actual outputs from RS when it activates? Also U do have the correct OEM Alarm Dis-arm wire connected or R U using a DATA Module?

No I did not check anything. The alarm was installed by a dealer. It was working fine for about 2 months and then all of sudden it started acting up. The car starts but the battery light on the dash comes on and none of the accessories come on until I put the key in the ignition and turn to the run position. I have tried making sure that all acessories were off then remote started the car but the battery light still comes on and none of the accessories will come. The Acc. fail to come on about 9 out of 10 remote starts. Sometimes it will work just fine. I am clueless as to why this just started happening.

Could be a bad connection. Sometimes the Accessories take a lot of amperage and could have caused a connection problem
