Ive installed many remote starts on 2006+ GM vehicles and I found some of them have a issue when starting it with a key. They have to hold the key in the start position for a few seconds until it starts. I have seen this on a Saturn Outlook and a Tahoe. I even used a mix between idatalink and xpresskit bypasses and seen them on both. Has anyone else experienced this? Everything works great expect the starting delay with the key. There is no delay of course on remote starting. Im the installer that triple checks the wire before connecting to them so yes installation is exactly like the install guides. Thanks

Really? Have to hold it to start position for a "few seconds"? This is not something I have ever encountered.

I know its very strange. I can understand the Saturn's as they are notorious for passlock issues.. but then it happened on a Tahoe and im beginning to wonder

I think this sometimes happens if the fuse for the constant-power feed to the ignition switch gets blown. It's only 2 amps, so it's very easy to pop it while doing your installation.
I would be sure to test the constant at the ignition switch, and/or check that 2-amp fuse.
These cars will usually still start, run, and drive with the fuse blown, because the off/run/crank signal (in the same connector) is still working.
