Hi I isntalled a RS2-G3 remote start on my 2005 Ford escape. The remote start works fine and distance is great. I can't figure out why the 2way option is not working.

The kit came with two remotes. A 1way and a 2way remote. When I use the 2way remote the green light flashes a few seconds later the car starts. But I don't receive any lights on the remote letting me know the car has started. Only way I know is to look outside and make sure my parking lights are on.

Any help or info would be great. Thank you

Try reseating the antenna connection. If that doesn't work it may need to be replaced.

I did the antenna still same issue.

Decided to contact Crime Stopper that makes the RS2-G3 was told to re program the fobs. The 2 way remote works fine now. I guess they come preset for 1 way operation till you program them. Wish they put that in the operating book.

thank you for the help.

I do have another question I'm using same remote start soon in my friends 2016 Subaru Crosstrek it has a regular key.

His car calls for 2 IGN. 2 Start 12v constant and Accessorie.

The RS2-G3 only has one start wire. But I can program the Accessorie wire to be a second Start wire or program the IGN 2 to be a start.

Can I do without one of these wires or connect some of them together?

Thanks in advance.
