well the boy wants a remote start for his cherokee. comments on how hard
to install which ones to buy etc, thanks in advance. john jr

 

Been thinking of doing the same. I'll have mine installed ... cost to
install is minimal and prevents me from screwing something (electronic)
up. As far as I know, they sense rpm to determine when to shut off the
starter else turn for a predetermined time (had to set that up on my
subaru, micro switch, wasn't enabled quite long enough), sense the
engine is running else they wait then attempt a restart, flash the
parking lights to let you know what's going on etc etc

I use the Clifford. However, my system has been in the Jeep since 93.

Installation isn't hard, but it is a slow and picky process. If your
not comfortable with working on the harness and routing wires then you
probably should have a pro do the job. Also professional installation
will give you a better warranty. The Clifford only gives you 30 days
self-install but a year for pro-install and lifetime on the unit.

If I were shopping for a new system I would get it as part of a better
alarm. With one of those two-way pager/transmitter fobamathingies.

The biggest problem you will face in getting an autostart to work
if fooling the smartkey/passkey system if your Jeep has it. Most
vendors have a bypass module, but check that first.

you will need a 555u to bypass the key and a 455u to make the remote easyly
interface with the locks and such more money
