Thats the number one reason i only put viper starters in.

I have been there more than once its not fun.

Last one i did was a ford one for a ford dealership and it was a waste of  5-6 of my life.

Where did you get your tach signal from?

Have you programmed the tach signal?

Are you sure it's a tach issue and not a security issue?

What happens if you start the car with the key, remote start it while it is running, and then remove the key?  Does it die right away or keep running?
