check the hood pin and make sure it not broken if its broke or not adjusted right, if making contact it will give a signal that the hood is open and will cancel the start to see unplug the wire and try it

the switch has to be on to remote start

also make sure the wires on the back of the switch are not broke

think i found the installation manual for this starter if you tell me how many flashes the led one the brain under the dash i might be able to tell you the problem better

that is after a failed start and before the brake is pushed

if the brake is pushed it will clear the codes

You are hoping for 5 flashes (hood pin problem)

The hood pin on these units is magnetic (total crap) You can replace it, but the unit requires some programming changes.

There is NO clearing of codes.... if there is a no start situation, the problem must be fixed before it will start!
