It's set for tachless, tach wire is not hooked up. How does the remote start work in tachless mode? When I had the key in without the bypass wrapped around iginition it started and stayed running in tachless mode. When bypass is wrapped around ignition, truck will start and shut off after 2 secs with or without key in ignition.

I'll guess I could hook the tach wire up and see if that's my problem.

When you have the key in the ignition is it forward to run or just off? if its off and the remote start works its your bypass causing your issue. If its on and the remote start works your not powering up an ignition that needs to be.

I would check to make sure yoou powered up all the ign. and acces. wires. You can get the tach at any injector also, just use the wire that is not common. I dont beleive the starter will engage at all if you do not have the bypass hooked up properly.

With key in ignition in the OFF position and bypass wrapped around key cylinder - truck starts and shuts off within 2-3 seconds.

When key was in ignition in the OFF position without the bypass wrapped around the key cylinder - the truck started and stayed running suing the remote starter. Worked in bith tachless and tach mode

That is because the truck is seeing two transponders. It will not start with the key in the ign. and the ring wrapped around the ign cylinder. If the truck stays running with the key in the ign. and no ring around the cylinder then it is the bypass. Try moving the bypass around the cylinder to a different location. In my experience the ring has to be out toward the edge as far as it can be.

Once the truck starts is it still looking for the bypass? Truck will start without key ignition, just doodies off within 2-3 secs, I will try moving the ring toward the outer edge.
