I have an astrostart 5200 in my 2003 Silverado. It has the 5 button remote with the multi colored buttons. It lost program and stopped starting the vehicle. I was able to reprogram the tach signal using the dip switches. It works now but only runs for two minutes. The remote has instructions but they dont seem to change it. I need dip switch programming instructions for setting the run to to the longer setting. Also when I would remote start it the parking lights would come on, now the headlights come on when remote starting it. I would like to know how to change this back if to just the parking lights on when remote starting. Really need some help as its very cold outside. Any input is greatly appreciated.

The issue with the parking/headlights.... interesting to say the least, NOT a programmable feature!

I figured out the parking light problem. They are wired to one of the programmable outputs and needed to be programmed. Horn would honk when I locked the doors two times with remote, would like to get this back. Also need to figure out the door trigger for killing the radio after shutdown. Thanks for your help.
