Hi there. Locate the controller to the remote start system and follow the wiring to the horn or chirp device. Then, remove the battery cable and cut the wire to the horn or chirp device and re-route the wire to the blinker hazard lights. Then hook up the battery cables and test the system. Now the noise should not be there but your lights will flash indicating that the remote start is active. If the system will not shut off, then the remote start controller needs replaced. If you need further assistance with your remote start sounding the alarm, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you.

Hold the “unlock” button on your key fob for 10 seconds until you hear silence. As you stop holding down the “unlock” button, press the “panic” button. You will hear an audible chime if you successfully pull off this transition. Simply press any button on the key fob, and the resetting process should conclude.
1 Beep – Refresh Failure: Reseat/replace memory, troubleshoot motherboard. 2 Beeps – Parity Error: Reseat/replace memory, troubleshoot motherboard. 3 Beeps – Memory Error (first 64KB): Reseat/replace memory. 4 Beeps – Timer Failure: Troubleshoot motherboard.
Damaged CV joint: The most common cause of a clicking or popping sound from the wheels is a broken CV joint. The CV joints, which stand for Constant Velocity, are essentially the wrists of your vehicle`s steering system.
If your Ram key fob is not working properly, you can contact our Ram service center to reset or reprogram the key fob. It`s possible you only need to replace the battery in the key fob. If so, our service team can easily install a new key fob battery for you.
Press the Lock button on your remote car starter. Within five seconds of turning it on, turn your key back to the “off” position (or press the start button again). Repeat the on-off cycle three more times—you`ll do four in total.
Electrical problems, such as faulty switches, sensors, relays, or loose and damaged wires, can cause various issues, including failure to start, stalling, blown fuses, bad lighting, or a dead battery. To draw your attention to the problem, your car will beep.
It might be a battery or alternator problem.
A rapid clicking noise when trying to start your car could mean there`s something wrong within the electrical system. Perhaps your battery`s dead, or your alternator, which charges the battery, isn`t working correctly.
A ticking noise when starting a 2019 RAM 1500 could be either an exhaust manifold issue or simply the natural sound of the engine. Many RAM owners confuse the normal sound of a HEMI engine for something more serious—but since you`ve owned your vehicle for years, it`s probably the exhaust manifold.
Insert your RAM key fob into the ignition and switch it to “RUN” while pressing the “UNLOCK” button. Press and hold the “UNLOCK” and “PANIC” button simultaneously, then release them at the same time. Press “UNLOCK” and “LOCK” buttons simultaneously, then release both. Press the “UNLOCK” again.
Coolant and Oil Pressure
Double check your engine coolant and oil temperatures: If the engine coolant temperature is too high or the oil pressure is too low, remote start is disabled! After you have let the car cool down for 5-10 minutes and rechecked the levels, retry the start procedure.
If you`re experiencing issues with your remote start after changing the battery, it`s possible that the coolant temperature in your vehicle is too high or the oil pressure is too low. If this is the case, then your remote starter system will be disabled.

Your Remote Control Lost Programming
Most times, the only reason your remote control loses programming is because you have a dead battery. Car remote starts can keep programming through some type of memory installed in its features. However, like any computer, sometimes they lose memory.

Fuel pump engages. Batery good, alternator good volts, jump start helps when wont start. Temp does not matter. Intermittent?
ANSWER : Hello. Thank you for writing in. There are several reasons your vehicle may only start when jump starting. The first and most common is a build up of resistance that is causing you to need a boost of voltage to get the engine started. This may be due to poor battery cables, a bad ground connection, a poor starter solenoid, and a couple of other issues. The first thing you want to do is perform a visual inspection of the starting system. Make sure there is no corrosion build up in the battery cables. You can also check the resistance across these wires and make sure you have a solid connection between components. You then want to make sure the starter solenoid is doing its job. It is responsible for taking the small amount of electricity sent by the ignition and turning it into a huge electrical charge that is strong enough to push over the engine with the help of some gear ratios in its favor. Do some more testing, and stick to the basics before assuming its something seriously complicated.
My 2011 truck does not start all lights on dashboard turn on like normal but it will not start and it started showing a advancetra
ANSWER : Hi there. If you are able to turn the key and the engine cranks over; but won’t ignite, the issue will be caused by an ignition or fuel system component failure. If you are unable to crank the engine over, this is due to either the ignition relay or the starter itself. You might benefit from having one of our mobile mechanics come to your location and complete a car is hard to start inspection.
I changed the fuel pump and truck ran great for 3 days. Now after 3 days, the truck dies. It will start running for a few minutes, then dies like before.
ANSWER : Hi there, thanks for writing in. I’d be happy to help. It sounds like you should disconnect the connector to the fuel pump and inspect it for any signs of getting hot. The female connections may be too loose on the fuel pump and lose contact after running and getting hot. If there are indeed any signs of problems, then I’d suggest replacing connector and adding dielectric lube to pins before installation. This should solve the problem, but if you continue to experience issues, feel free to reach out to us for help again.
I parked my truck for 5-10 mins. Tried to turn it on, now it wont start, called a tow tow truck 15-20mins later my truck turned on
ANSWER : It is very likely that you have a powertrain control module failure. This can happen often on many GM vehicles. I would recommend having the powertrain control module tested and replaced as necessary in order to resolve this issue. After the powertrain control module is replaced, a reflash procedure will be required so that the vehicle can relearn all of its primary engine data. Once the reflash is completed, your vehicle should no longer have this issue.
(08 f150 4.6L) Truck is cutting off when making a complete stop at red light or stop sign.
ANSWER : Check the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve and see if its dirty or not functioning correctly. I recommend removing the IAC and cleaning it out. If the valve was sticking before, the computer could have caught it and adjusted the idle to accommodate the issue. After having the battery cable off, the computer is in a learning cycle which means that if the IAC is not working properly, the computer will have to relearn and may learn to shut off due to a faulty valve, even though the computer says its good. If you need further assistance with your engine stalling out at stops, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you.
Why does my car struggle to start every 4th to 5th time?
ANSWER : It sounds like your starting issues may be linked to a problem with air metering or fuel delivery. A clogged or malfunctioning idle air control valve may show some of the same symptoms you are describing. The idle air control valve can be stuck in a cold start position which may work well if the car has been sitting a few hours, but as the engine warms up there must be a regulation in airflow. Consider hiring an experienced technician like one from YourMechanic who can come out for a closer look at your hard start situation and offer a more personal diagnosis.
Car won’t start, interior & warning lights flash & loud noises
ANSWER : Hello. It sounds like you either have a battery problem or you have a connection issue at the battery. I typically load test the battery first to see if it is failing. If the battery is fine then the battery terminals need to be checked for cleanliness and tightness. If those are also fine then it may have an issue with the fuse box or transmission position sensor. If you are going to have this repaired, consider YourMechanic, as a certified mechanic can come to your home or office to inspect the cause of the issues.
