Supposedly they lock automatically after 60 seconds.

According to the on-line manual, anyway.

Get mine installed tonight after work. I am going to tell him not to screw my tranny or computers up....

We ran out of time, gonna have to finish tonight. Got the brain wired and antennae put in. Install guy, since he's doing it for me on the side in his free time, wanted to know if he could finish tonight. He's cutting me a deal, so I'm not going to be a douche about how fast it's done....lol.

I told him about your issue and he said it's most likely a very simple fix: Whoever installed yours forgot to wire up Ignition 2.

Found something cool about my remote start I didn't know. I have been real careful to make sure I turned off the wipers so when I started it in the morning I wouldn't wipe out my wipers from ice and frost. Found out this afternoon that when you use the remote start it disables the wipers till you put the key in the ignition and turn it. I thought that was pretty cool

That's actually good to know. It's kind of a pet peeve of mine with my wife. She always leaves wipers on. If there's built up ice or snow on the windshield they still try to go when you start the car. Drives me nuts.

Still waiting for mine to get done. May get it done tonight, may not. My installer is also a car dude, and his motor needs some work. His motor guy is helping him tonight, so if they aren't done, I don't get done....lol.

It's all good, though. Buncho gear heads trying to pool knowledge to help each other save a few bucks. That's what I love about these forums.

my guy fixed it today. check engine light is still on for now. i just need to go to autozone and clear the codes. your guy was close to the problem. he wired ignition 1 and igntion 2 up backwards. took him 10 minutes to fix it.

i followed the instructions online on how to keypad lock the remote but cant get it to work. this remote is finicky!
