if you ground the hood pin wire, the r/s will think the hood is always open and it SHOULD NOT start.   i am having the same "cold" weather start problem, and cant find tech support any where, but i am wide open to any suggestions to get this thing to start.

What vehicle?  I just installed into a nissan pathfinder and it has a second starter wire that needed a relay to tie into the first starter wire.  This secone wire is also known as the cold start wire.  If your vehicle has one this could be your problem. 

As for the hood pin alarm on the previous post, check your wire, did it get stripped going through the firewall?  It may be bare or broken?

I too made the mistake of buying one of these POS starter/alarm combos...The alarm worked great for me, except the shock sensor was either way too sensitve, or not even close.

The starter was krap, kept cranking.  I tried numerous times to contact the seller, tylerdirden, he exchanged the first unit, the second unti was shhh also, so I sold it as an 2 way alarm for what I bought it for.

Now I have a nu-start 2 way system to get working, I installed it but not getting power to the unit so when I have time I have to check it out again.  I figure there is solder between the new connection & not allowing a proper connection, does that sound about right?

Hey i did the same mistake and i had the same seller where you got yours from...Tylerdirden.  I was able to exchange my first one and it has this problem with arming after 5 seconds it shows all the doors are open...But sometimes it works properly and everything...I actually i know where this guy lives!

these alarms r junk and if u where smart i would stop buying them and get soemthing that is qualtiy.....i have had tons of problems with them .....customers bring them to me and they all have big problems and never work right....there is no tech support and no one to talk to about them......ebay does have good deals but some of the deals u get can turn to nightmares.
Where theres is a wire there's a way.

I am in the dispute process of ebay right now trying to get my money back.  What is a good two way system that is around $150?

I think it has to be a faulty system.  The Nissan was working perfect and then the first day it got cold it started doing this.  The customer is not happy so I am going to try a different system when he gets one.  Still waiting to see what happens with ebay.  The seller has 6 days left to respond or I win my money back.  If he does contact me I will try to get tech information if he is willing to resolve it that way.
