this is a nice piece of equipment. Used one and it sure makes installs on domestics a breeze.

Wow!

And after all, it isn't a security issue.
Nice too for the next owner(s) - if YOU didn't keep it that is.
And fault repairs.

Random thought. We have car manufacturer specific adaptor leads for all the Bluetooth kits, makes them plug and play, why can't this be done for R/S? Admittedly before by-passes, Code did something similar for Mopar.

How is the range on these? I know you can add an extended range antenna, but how is it as it sits? I would assume its not as much as an aftermarket setup....

the controller is one unit, and the remotes/antenna is another.

you pair the 2 up and you can have a 2way alarm start with 1mile range.

If you do connect the remote / antenna of your choice (1way/2way/long range/etc) do they locks function as well as the remote start or does it only integrate the remote start? I just learned about these modules and I'm trying to get what info I can... but they seem pretty awesome.

Also, do they have them for other vehicles besides Chryslers?

Interesting, Ted but two things stand out, one VW model, why not all? Is that a South American built vehicle with Chrysler parts? The first of the new Minis had a Chrysler engine made in South America.
How is tach sensing achieved, through DATA on the T connector?

Ted, I just Wikied the Tiguan, it's Golf/Jetta based and built in Germany, Russia, China and Vietnam, but not South America and no Chrysler connection, so why the reference and if the Tiguan, why not Golf/Jetta or the Audi range?
I think it's a typo error, also the VW lighting colour is WRONG, parking or side lights on ALL, Germans (DIN standard) are grey primary colour.

By the way guys when a rookie posts with problems, how many times do you want to yell "check your wiring fool"?

More like... take it to a professional. When you have to ask how to use a DMM you should not be attempting a remote starter.

Or probably a few more like not RTFM* or looking at my signature lines.
*Especially with regard to not wiring up/programming by-passes properly or obeying/understanding second Ign./starter/ACC methods.
How many of these fools look at the colours we've suggested and assume without testing.
