A: To avoid any impact on your warranty, remote start systems with firmware activation must be installed by a technician.

Q: What does the installation of the remote start system with T-harness include?

A: The remote start installation with T-harness includes mounting of antenna and hood switch, connecting/concealing wiring and a demo of the product's features.

Q: Do I need reprogramming, because my climate control is jumping around and my lights go on and off?

A: Probably needs to be reprogrammed. Could also be due to an installation wire fell out. I had this happened when my door indicated a door was open

Q: I just got the viper ds4+ remote start installed in my car, but now cannot connect it to the app even with following the directions.

A: I know this sounds like a waste of money but instead you need to if you can return the item the Viper and get the compustar plus drone. There are very many bad reviews for the Viper and even the installers of my compustar said that the Viper has problems with older and newer cars

    Greenwood Store # 230, Autotech, Geeksquad Rocks!

    I purchased items for installation in Nov of ‘22 and was supposed to have installation dates in Jan of ‘23. My original installation appointments were rescheduled twice and I ended up having to go to a Best Buy over an hour from my home to have the installations completed. I think it goes without saying that I was skeptical of the end result. However, I’m happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised with the service I received! Lead Autotech, Nick, at the Greenwood, IN store, was incredible! I had him tied up for a day and a half doing two remote start installs, a stereo with all the bells and whistles, an amp, and two subs. His installation looks incredible! Everything is tucked away and hidden nice and neat. He took great care in working around all other accessories that I have on my truck. Nick went from an installation on our tiny Fiat to an installation on our giant truck like it was nothing. He took the time to carefully explain all the details and functionalities of everything that he installed. I can’t say enough great things about Nick. He truly saved what was looking like it might be a a negative Best Buy experience.

    Remote Start upgrade on Classic Land Cruiser

    Product works Great and Mobile app is such an upgrade for an older vehicle, The Installer was amazing and did a great job. He was more than helpful and super knowledgeable. This cruiser is over 20 years old and it has been restored with care. He understood and appreciated my interest in this job not just being done, but done to the highest standard as this car is in perfect shape for its age. I am very happy with the entire experience and the product.
