Hey I'm not an expert at remote starts I've only hooked up one in my life I have two of them one in my Durango & one in my Dakota Dakota was installed by best buy & Durango was installed by pc richards I'm not positive but I think tach wires are the same color on all remote starts and mine are purple the tach wire on the Durango is hooked to the #3 fuel injector wires & the Dakota wire is hooked to the coil but the tach wire is purple look back at installation directions you might have a defective remote start unit remember I said I'm not an expert I'm just going. By what I have I really hope this helped you oh by the way the van has an automatic tranny right? Good luck

is there a check engine light on? There are numbers of things that can cause this.

Had the same issue with our 1999 chevy astro van, would crank but would not start. It had been raining and windshield had a leak, after 2 days of no rain it started. Pulled codes and was the Security system in the ignition switch. Hope this helps.

here you go...

have 99 astro same problem changed ignition coil runs fine.

can you hear the fuel pump buzz when you first hit the key /make sure it's getting fuel also try checking the timing belts //might of slipped..

you might have water dripping on your distributor. Need to place palstice over ac line so the water drips away from distibutor. Then by new cap, rotor and distributor.

The control module is located just behind the ignition coil. Sorta hard to get to but we got it and the van is running great.
