hey guys i ahvea 2000 tahoe and i installed a viper 791xv w remote start and when ever i remote start it the check engine light comes on and the tranny wont shift correctly. my first thought was that it was a bad connection on the the second ignition wire, but i remade the connection and the problem persists. thanks

Make absolutely sure that your powering the white second ignition wire. And not only that make sure it acts exactly like the regular ignition wire while the vehicle is remote started. Which means the white wire must have power while the vehicle is cranking. Do not remote start the vehicle and drive it until you fix the problem or you will be buying a new tranny.

CHEVROLET, TAHOE, 2000, Second Ignition
To avoid the check engine light from coming on and possible damage to the automatic transmission, the second ignition in this vehicle MUST be powered when adding a remote start system.
Check your wiring again against this. Make sure your jumper on the remote starter unit is set on second ignition.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it.second ignition wire? - Last Post -- posted image.
