Well my roommate and I fooled around with it today, and we finally got it to crank! Several times. It wouldn't start EVERY time, though. In fact more times than not it wouldn't start at all, it would turn over and then just die. The THEFT SYS light was of course on. The only thing we did different was use a different key. The key we were trying the past couple days wasn't the one I've been using the past year or so, but once we went back to using that key it cranked every so often. We did get a reading, finally, 7.95 kW. We had tried many times before to get one but it turns out his ohmmeter was fuxxed. Hahaha. So we went and bought a new one and finally got that reading. We tried soldering the resistors together to that resistance and put them in there and the car would crank every so often, really no different than when it wasn't there.
Anyway since I CAN eventually get it to crank now, and can get a reading, would I be able to get the remote start? I guess I could call ahead of time and let the installer know the situation, or maybe try to install it myself. Anyone know how much the parts/labor run ?
