Setting my remote start AC ???
First off my apologies I know there have been a few threads for this topic was touched on but I haven't seem to find the answer I'm looking for. When I use the remote start on my vehicle the air conditioning turns on but it is very low. is there a way to change the settings so the seat coolers as well as max AC turns on when I remote start the vehicle ?

If you have it set to Auto, they will come on dependant on the temp. However, from what I've read since I don't have my truck yet to confirm. If you set it to Last Used, and crank things up before you shut it down it is guaranteed to come on full blast.

I don't have my truck yet to confirm full path in the menu options, but here is what the owners manual says:

• Heated rear window.
Automatic Settings
In hot weather, the system is set to 72°F
(22°C). The cooled seats are set to high
(if available, and selected to AUTO in the
information display).
In moderate weather, the system either
heats or cools (based on previous
settings). The rear defroster, heated
mirrors and heated or cooled seats do not
automatically turn on.
In cold weather, the system is set to 72°F
(22°C). The heated seats are set to high
(if available, and selected to AUTO in the

window and heated mirrors automatically
turn on.

Using your steering wheel controls. Click the right arrow button until you get to the settings option. There you can set the auto climate control on remote start function. Best to go through every window so your familiar with the options your truck has.
I can confirm the auto heater and seats heater in cold weather works fine. It's never been hot enough to trigger the cooling function in my truck.
