Angry Any porblems with remote starters on AT

I had a remote starter added to the vehicle and It the car tries to start but then goes off it tries again and again I have to take it back but is there any reason why this happens other than the installer did not do it correctly?

easy fix. all you have to go is "re" set the ignition timer. there are different sets u can set the seconds on it. i had to do that myself. i had the same problem. it was fixed in 1 min haha. =)

It was set to crank longer but again the second day starting from cold it did the same thing.
2nd it was to the tachometer but still did the same thing @ cold last they said they going to try some electronic to piggy back with the starter device but why so much trouble?

i really believe its cause the ignition second timer. its set to short on default. you'll need to set it higher around 2.7 seconds.. i thinks thats wut mine is on.. on my Viper remote starter
