anyone out there have a push button start on there dodge, besides the srt10 guys? i wonder how much that would cost. i know its just one more thing you have to do to start the truck but i think it has a COOL FACTOR

 

40 bucks, check on ebay. The install is easy and there are numerous write ups out there on the forums.

 

yeah i was wanting to get one too

 

Henson Motors is a good place to get it from. Here is their eBay store or you can give thema call.

Here is mine:

 

There is a guy on dodgetruckworld that had his mounted in the power outlet spot inside the center console. I thought that was a pretty cool idea.

 

man that looks awesome helopilot!!! so do you have to use that to start the truck now or can you start it with the button and the key? also did you do it yourself or have someone install? how much did you pay all together?? i cant wait to get mine!!

 

You turn the key to the on position and then you push the button or you can use your key just like normal. Installing it is easy, you can hook it up from the two big terminals on your starter or you can tap into your steering colum harness to jump the selinoid.

 

i have the key start, you press the button twice, it turns on, then you stick the key in the igniton to the "On" position...

 

My question is. Once it is installed while the engine is running and that button is bumped will it spin the starter.

I know the straight wire to the starter would but does Dodge have something that stops this in the SRT?

 

You have to have the key in to unlock the steering colum.

I paid 40 bucks total and installed it myself, took 10 minutes.

There are two ways to hook it up. The way I have it, the key will not start the truck period. Or you can have it set up so that you can start with either key or button.

On the newer Dodge trucks, the computer is smart enough to sense that the vehicle has already been started and it will not engage the starter with the key or the button.
