What the FU$*....it scared the S*i$ out of me...I got in and hit the brake and everything shut off....has anybody else run into this...did the previous owner have this put on from the factory?????.....Try it out......

sounds like the other owner added an after market remote starter probably (valet 551t made by dei) it works with three positive pulses. which explains why you have to hit lock three times he saved you $229.95

i live in alaska and autostarts are hot up here... seeing as how you should let your car warm up in sub freezing weather....

anyway... Ive got the Clifford 3.5 alarm/autostart .... $500 rig .. got it for $145.... gotta love Best Buy as a second job...
