My neighbor has a 98 expedition that had a auto command remote starter in it that died.I told him to buy another DEI remote starter and i would swap it out for him.He bought a Ready Remote model 24926.I just transfered the wiring from the old unit to the new one,and the vehicle will crank but it won't start.Any suggestions

did you hook up a tach wire?? What bypass did you use??? DEi 556U, DEI 555F, or similar

That's just it,the systems are both made by DEI and the previous model didn't need a bypass,and didn't use a tach signal,it used the voltage sensor.

I'm just going to program the tach wire because the voltage sensor is telling me that the voltage drops to low when the vehicle tries to crank.

Tried both ways,and vehicle will crank,but not start.I tried setting the crank time longer,but that didn't work either.Any suggestions?

The most reliable way to install a starter is by using a tachometer monitoring connection. I would recommend hooking it up. With that said, voltage sensing should work fine. DEI systems do not like a battery that is weak, I would suggest having the battery load tested.
