Looking for some guidance.
My remote start will start the truck, but it shuts down seconds after start up.
Thoughts/suggestions?

RTFM.

There is a whole host of pre-req's for remote start. Most if not all CEL codes as well as low fuel level will cancel a remote start request.

A defective hood ajar switch (on the hood latch) will prevent a remote start.

I have seen defective switches, and although the hood remains fully closed - it reports to the computer that the hood is ajar.
