1. How are your installations done?
We use only the highest quality shop supplies and
tools to perform the service work on your vehicle. Every remote start
system starts its life on our bench being prepped for your very unique
vehicle. up to 50 percent of the wiring fitment is done on the bench to
ensure that each system looks as " factory" as possible. At Method
Acoustics you will never see any cheap wiring techniques to ensure
integrity of the install we will use a organic core solder with a
variable temp ESD safe soldering iron heat shrink and 3M's superior
super 33+ temflex tape on all of our connections.
2. Will a remote start system void my Vehicles manufactures warranty?
The addition of a remote start system will not
void your new vehicle's warranty. Many people misunderstand this. The
Canadian consumer protection act basically states that even if you
installed an aftermarket product yourself. The vehicle dealer or
manufacturer would have to prove in a court of law that the aftermarket
product had a direct impact on whatever part or parts that you wanted
changed under warranty before they could void that portion of the
warranty. A properly installed remote start system won't have any
negative effects on your vehicle, or your warranty.
3. How is price determined?
When you call our shop we will ask you the fewest
non confusing questions possible, including; make, model and year of
vehicle. Does it have power locks, or any other convenience features?
Next we don't do "up selling" we never quote for "basic" installations
to get you in the door that would never apply to any of the cars today,
we believe that if your car has it, and the remote start system does
it, then you get it! We also don't believe in over inflated rates, some
shops will charge 6 plus hours for a job that doesn't take more then 2,
and our rates never change throughout the season! You don't have to
worry your quote is safe with us.
4. My remote does not work. What do I do?
Does your vehicle respond to your remote at all?
If yes, does it lock and unlock the doors? If yes then your system is
in valet mode. Either tap buttons I and III or Lock and Trunk
simultaneously on your remote. If no, have you tried reprogramming your
remote outlined in the user's manual? If either option does not resolve
your problem bring it in and we'll have a look at it.
5. My vehicle does not remote start. What do I do?
Does your vehicle respond to your remote? If yes,
what commands does it respond to? If no, does reprogramming your
remote work? If your remote responds to your system and does not remote
start it may be possible your bypass module or installation needs to be
checked.
6. How many remotes can I program to my CompuStar system?
You can program up to 3 remotes with any Alarm,
Alarm/Starter, and Starter system with the exception of the 2WSSR. The
2WSSR will only work with another remote (1WSSR) with the Alarm/Starter
Combo system. All current systems will take up to 3 remotes.
7. My 2-Way remote flashes "Hold"; on the LCD when I press any button. What causes that?
Your remote has a button lock feature. If you
hold button 4 down for 2.5 seconds that will engage or disengage that
feature.
8. I have a manual transmission. How do I set my vehicle up to remote start?
You have to set manual transmission reservation
mode. Reservation mode involves leaving your gear in neutral. You must
set your e-brake and a few seconds later remove the vehicle's key from
the ignition. Your vehicle will remain running until you exit your
vehicle and close all doors. The motor will shut down and your remote
will receive a page back (2-Way remote) and lock and arm the system.
