Cant remember how to use the remote

If you have to press the vehicle's door lock AND the remote starter button...something is definitely wrong with the installation. If the prestige is a one button unit, try pressing the button twice within two seconds to start vehicle (press...thousand one, release, press...thousand two,release) this is the default setting.

If it is an add on remote starter, then you would use the factory remote to start it. If using the factory remote to start there are a couple of combinations to start it. Try lock, unlock,lock for Prestige/Pursuit models. If Directed models, try lock, lock or lock, lock, lock. If its a GM remote starter, press lock and then hold the remote starter button(circle with arrow.

Hello

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

The transmitter incorporates a small LED visible through the case which is used to indicate battery

condition. You will notice a decrease in transmitter range as the battery condition deteriorates.

Transmitter battery replacement is recommended at least every 10 to 12 months, depending upon how

frequently the transmitter is used.

To replace the battery in the APS620TX:

1) Remove the small # 0 Phillips head screw from the rear of the case.

2) Remove the rear cover to access the discharged battery paying attention to the proper polarity

orientation.

3) Carefully remove and properly dispose of the discharged battery.

4) Insert the new battery, close the case, then reinstall the small case screw removed in step 1.

5) If you accidently dislodge the circuit board from the transmitter housing, be certain that the rubber

membrane is seated properly, and the buttons are properly exposed from the front view of the case,

then insert the circuit board, and return to step #4.

It is the sole responsibility of the user to operate the vehicle this system is installed in a safe manner.

This device must not be used in an enclosed space like a garage, attached or detached, car port, or any

partially enclosed areas. Also this device must be placed in the service mode when dropping the vehicle
off for service to prevent injury to the service technician
These are the information about the battery replacement to your device. There is no other details given. Check the battery contacts inside the remote for any dirt or rust, which prevents the good contact for batter y terminals. If there is, clean it . OK.

That is your factory alarm. I will assume that this Prestige unit is a remote starter with keyless entry...and you are using the Prestige unit to unlock the doors. Apparently, the unlock wire is connected but, the factory disarm is not. You can turn off your factory alarm by unlocking the vehicle with the key.

sounds like your unit is in valet mode

You have to contact Audiovox by web or phone to order the dot matrix remote. It cost $85 + shipping. I'm lookin for a way to order online myself.

one purchasing the new remote audiovox will send you an instruction manual on the steps to programming the new transmitter. it is fairly easy, and they will give you the number to there tech department that if you have any trouble they will also walk you through it. hope this helps

if you need a remote you can buy one from audiovox.com and also you can download the installation manual and user manual in which that will tell you how to program the new remote for the remote start.

Hello hope this can help you. First check the starter wire, it is tan/lt blue located at the ignition harness. usualy during installation of the remote start system this wire is cut leaving you with two ends. one wire is coming from the ignition switch the other is going to the starter. the brain of the alarm hooks into both of these wires. if the repair man cut the wires from the brain and spliced them together he has just put the system back to OEM status leaving the alarm no way to engage the starter. I believe that may be where the problem lies but if not then I would say check your immobilizer bypass module the repair man mave have diconected that.

Thank you,
Luis
