Have an Astra 1000RS-2W remote start unit in an '04 Yukon. Many times it will start and run for less than a minute and just shut itself off. Using a bypass (GMDL-BP I think...) that has a 1 wire connection to the datastream to control bypass & locks.

I'll call the company too, but you guys have been good. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I just installed one in my 2003 Trailblazer , using the same bypass as you, first few times i started it, I noticed the same problem, but has been installed 3 weeks now and working fine.

Did you recheck the wiring? I believe the wiring is similar to the Trailblazer , I used white /parklamps,blue /org=grnd running,grn/wht= brake,blk/gry=tach,yellow/ start on the harness,red /power,blk /grnd.use the grn,blu to hook up to your gmdl for the locks.

I have not hooked the hood pin up need to get another I broke the damn thing.

let it run 20 min to learn the tach should be it

Read the instruction book a few times as it's a little confusing as to how to set the system up, if you have a problem write me , i can answer some of your questions and this site is a wealth of knowledge.

Good luck on contacting Astra, I sent them an email asking a question 3 wks ago and still haven't heard form them

Hey OhioMike, no reason to respond if you cannot be constructive is there?

To everyone else here that has replied to my few threads, thank you! You have been very helpful.
