Hi all...

My sister-in-law has a 2004 PT with the Sentrykey. I put a RS900-VII in it a few months back, using the existing factory keyfob. Just recently (according to her) the car would just die while going 60-65 on the freeway (happened twice). This after using the RS for about 2-3 min before taking off. I installed the Omega PKUCH bypass and the vehicle has started with the RS just fine for the last month or so (abour 50+ times) without a hitch. Is there a known issue with this unit and a bypass with that car? I can provide any details if needed. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

The RS-900 have been very reliable for me. I have never heard of a rs causing the car to die at highway speed. I would pull all the fuses on the remote and disconnect the bypass and see if she still has a problem. At least you will be able to eliminate weather it was the rs or not...

I totally agree. I think my S-I-L is cursed. I put an Omega in her old '97 Taurus and she had plenty of problems. I put a RS900 series in my last 7 DC minivans and none of them had issues. Besides when you hit the brake the RS switches control back to the native electronics. I don't understand. But I will disable it for a few days/weeks to see if the problem continues. Thanks!
