About 20% of the time when I go to use my remote starter, the truck will start and then it will shut off. The message on the dash states “remote start disabled, start vehicle to reset”. It seems to do it more often when it’s colder, which is obviously a problem because that’s when I use the damn remote start. No CEL, plenty of fuel, no doors or hood open. Any ideas? Don’t want to take it to the dealer just to be told “couldn’t reproduce, that will be $100”

Mine has started doing the same thing? It doesn’t happen as often but it does happen from time to time.
Same as you, no CEL, plenty of fuel and no doors or hood open?

This has happened to me as well, but only a couple of times. Not enough for me to worry about it just yet. Would love to know what the cause is though.
