OK I am not famaliar with these products so any help will be great. It is a astro-flex model 2100 remote start. Its on a 2002 gmc yukon. The remote start works fine but is randomly turning accessories on. Is this a feature with these or is this baby ready for my trash can. Thanx in advance...

I installed ONE astroflex back in the day and i'm pretty sure by now it's fertilizer in the trash dump. This was on a grand prix. I would check and see if the accessory is ran off of an external relay or internal. maybe the relay trigger is grounding out on something, but I know you know, when in doubt swap it out. Bryant doesn't know what he's missing with ultra, and I'm pretty sure a DEI alarm wouldn't do you any good seeing as though ITS A REMOTE START. Is it powering the climate controls or the radio? (orange or brown wire in ignition harness)

Its only tied into the orange accesory, I traced all wiring and re did several connections, install was really poor. The dealer is trying to be cheap but after explaining that it would be cheaper to remove astro and have a ultra put in, he seems to have understood that $$$. Anybody wanna buy a model 2100 astro-flex? posted_image
