Hi Folks.........we lost our remote for an Astro Start model 803 remote starter. Have an extra remote but it needs to be programmed, can anyone help us out and give directions on how it is done?? Thanks

open the hood
place key in the ignition & turn to the run "ON"
apply the brake once
within 10 sec turn the key from run to stop 3 times
if successful, parking lights will flash 4 times
press any button on the remote, when new code is learned, it will confirm with 1 flashing parkinglight
repeat the above procedure for each remote that has to be programmed (up to 4)
apply the brake
remote is now added to the system
close the hood

or if you can get access to the module

- Dip switch 8 up, push the start button on the remote, the unit should make some clicking noise.

- dip switch down and press brake. DOne

If you haven't got the remote programmed, try this again

open the hood ( make sure hood pin switch is properly grounded )

place key in the ignition & turn to the run "ON"

apply the brake once

within 10 sec turn the key from run "ON" to stop "OFF" 3 times ( off, on, off, on, off )

if successful, parking lights will flash 4 times ( if you don't get the parking light flashes, that means the above steps are not done correctly )

press any button for a second (led comes on, goes out and then back on blink ......until it stops flashing ) on the remote, when new code is learned,

it will confirm with 1 flashing parkinglight

repeat the above procedure for each remote that has to be programmed (up to 4)

apply the brake

remote is now added to the system

close the hood

This should do the trick!
