Did you get your remote start fixed?? If it is beeping 3x and not starting it is in service mode.

Service mode is used whenever it is necessary to disable the remote start feature, such as during vehicle service. The vehicle will not start by remote if Service mode is activated.

Entering Service mode.

A. Turn ignition on with the key.

B. Press the start button on the remote transmitter 3 times. 2 seconds later, the horn will chirp and the lights will flash 3 times, indicating the system
is in Service mode.

C. While in Service mode, whenever a remote start attempt is made, the horn will chirp and the lights will flash 3 times alerting the user that the
system is in Service mode.

Exiting Service mode.

A. Turn ignition on with the key.

B. Press the start button on the remote transmitter 3 times. 2 seconds later, the horn will chirp and the lights will flash 1 time, indicating the system
has exited Service mode.

Hope this helps. If not let me know.

Sounds like its the Sentry Key is shutting it down (or the bypass module is faulty or intermittent.

Vehicle starts then stalls - SKIM/SKREEM Interface not learned.

A. Ensure 2 and 4 way connectors are connected
B. Ensure antenna coil is wrapped tightly around the ignition cylinder SKIM/
SKREEM antenna ring.

C. Re-learn SKIM/SKREEM Interface module (see page 15).

5. SKIM/SKREEM Transponder Interface Programming.
2 programmed Sentry keys are required for this step!
NOTE: Review and understand steps A-J prior to performing.

Quote:

A. Close hood.

B. Insert one of the two valid Sentry Keys into the ignition switch and turn
the ignition switch to the “on” position.

C. After the ignition has been activated for more than 3 seconds (but no
more than 15 seconds), cycle the ignition switch back to the “off” position.
Remove the key and keep it at least 2 feet away from the ignition switch.

D. Within 15 seconds of removing the first key, insert the second valid
Sentry Key into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the “on”

position.

E. Approximately 10 seconds after the ignition has been activated by the
second Sentry Key, the dash theft-security light will start to flash, and a
single audible chime (not the key-in-cylinder chime) will sound to indicate
that the system has entered “Customer Learn” programming mode.

F. Cycle the ignition switch back to the “off” position. Remove the key and
keep it at least 2 feet away from the ignition switch. Theft-security light
will turn off.

G.Press and release the programming button located on the custom harness.

H. Within 60 seconds, press the start button on the remote start transmitter (2) times.

I. Approximately 10 seconds after completion of Step H, a single audible

chime will sound and the theft-security light will stop flashing and stay on

solid for 3 seconds, and then turn off to indicate that the SKIM/SKREEM
Interface module has been successfully programmed.

J. The system will remote start the engine approximately 15 seconds after

Step H. Press the brake pedal to shut down the remote start system.

Note:

In some vehicles, during the SKIM/SKREEM Interface learn procedure,

the vehicle will start and stall on the first remote start attempt. The
second remote start attempt will be successful. This is a normal
condition of the learn procedure. If the vehicle does not start, refer to

the Troubleshooting guide on page 19.

Once a SKIM/SKREEM Interface Module has been programmed to a

WCM/vehicle, it is permanently assigned to that WCM/vehicle and

cannot be used on any other WCM/vehicle.

 

yeah tried it at lunch and now it doesnt even wanna do it during the day.

 

Which one did you try?

 

just tried the normal way to start it , did the service mode this morning. as far as the SKIm instruction, not too sure what those mean

 

is the module has gone bad , a after market replacement is pretty cheap might just go with one of those

 

Is your Key Gray or Black ?

Edit: opps I see you have an 07....the stuff I posted was for 02-05

My compustar remote start/alarm does this exact same thing on my car. But opposite only when the car is exremely hot (ie between runs on time attack course). I never did figure it out. I think it might have something to do with the altenator voltage output in extreme temps ??? I dunno

This is a thread im very interested in what the senior guys on this forum have for a answer.
