hi all

thanx
Yes adapt a Compustar antenna to it... lol
Just having fun... it can be four things;
1- Bad Ground (always the same old school comment) (hey the bad ground can be at the antenna, check the cable integrity)
2- Bad Power (pretty rare, why not!)
3- Bouncing RF in the vehicle which frequency this r.s. use and in which car did you install
4- the antenna or the remote have a bad crystal heterodyne oscillator.
1 & 2 are easy to check and solve
3- depends on the vehicle and RF frequency of the starter
4- Return defective components

If you fail on your first attempt, at least destroy all evidence you tried!
Where are you trying to remote start it? City, suburb? The one-way ultrastarter r/s i install work AWESOME in the suburbs (no RF interference) and then fall flat on their faces in the city (with the big buildings, etc). I literally have had to put the keyfob to the windshield to get a response in the city, but that SAME vehicle and remote starter i've had up to 1/4 mile in the 'burbs... i think interference is a big deal on many 433mhz systems, particularly non-spread spectrum varieties.
How are the batteries in your keyfob? Some of those units sit on the shelf for many months ..even years.
