Looking for a remote starter, I want a fairly descent remote start for an 03 f350, it is a diesel so it needs the delay in the start to warm the glow plugs...i want it to start (turn off if possible) lock and unlock, and i seen a few with a alarm on them, theres a screen on the keyring thingy,,,which one do yall reccomend? THANKS TO ALL
I have the AutoPage RS1000. There are a couple things about it that are screwy right now, but I think I just need to update some settings and I haven't gotten around to messing with it yet. The screen, and range are great though.
I have been installing these things for about 5 years now. Any thing made by DEI (viper, python, clifford, avital, Directed, and a few others) is going to be the best on the market. I have a DEI in mine, but I got it at cost. If I had to buy one and I was paying normal price I would get an Audiovox. In my opinion they are about 99% as good as anything DEI makes, but cost close to half as much.
I have a Python and it will do everything described in your first post. It can even roll down the windows if you add a part to it, plus every option you said. No complaints here! It was about $400 installed if I remember correct?
when it says built in turbo timer, is that the relay for the glow plugs?
No,the turbo timer is to cool down the turbo,to help provent coking.
When it can be used on a diesel,it will say diesel compatable.
And its not done with a relay,most will use a timed start delay.Most will wait 10,20,30 secs before starting,when set up that way.

99% of remote starts will have an input for the wait to start light. You wire that input into the wait to start light and it wont let the truck start untill that wire looses power (which happens when the light goes out) . The units arent going to say if they have that or not. I know all DEI units will have it, and I belive all audiovox do as well. I dont know where you live or who you plan on installing it, but if you live anywhere near me Id be happy to install it for you. If you have anymore questions feel free to PM me, IM me (AOL IM: gr8drummr1), or e-mail me.
