Remote start?

My ex has a remote start sticker under the hood and there is wiring and modules under the dash. It is a DEI system and I was curious if anybody knew how it worked or how to make it work. It only has factory remotes.

Standing next to your vehicle try holding down the Lock and Unlock at the same time.

Im guessing you would need the remotes. A good shop could look at it for you and let you know without trying to sell you a new system.

Looks like you'll need the remotes that came with the unit, found a kit on Amazon here

I put one in my wife’s minivan. Yo could set it up to use the factory remote. Try pressing the lock button 3 times.
