Scottie Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I have a new 2010 SEL with factory installed remote start. By default it locks the doors before starting. The booklet says it can be unlocked at any time via the PowerCode remote control. I assume this is the remote on the key, which will not unlock the doors once its started by the Remote start. The only way to open the doors I have found is with the key, once the remote start is used to start it up...does anyone have any experience with this. Is there a work around? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like something is wrong. I have the bi-directional remote and you push remote twice in 3 sec. to start car. It also locks the doors but using the key remote unlocks mine. You are the only one out of lots of us with remotes who has complained so sounds like something is wrong with yours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aboston Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I recently had mine installed and unlocking with the FOB is no problem. However, the factory installed remote is a weird beast. Personally mine usually starts the car but often doesn't give the proper feedback. Sometimes after starting my remote will 'beep', sometimes it blinks green, sometimes both, at times neither. All this variation when starting from the same place each time...My point is, the system is a bit wonky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
