It sounds like there's no power going to the starter wire. Try and locate the brain under the dash for the remote start. It should be black and about twice the size of a deck of cards with a few harnesses hanging out of it. Usually it is zip-tied to a wire harness or bracket to keep it secure and from falling down onto your feet. There should be several wires much larger than the others, and you should see fuseholders on the 2 red ones. Usually one of the fuses is used solely for the starter. Check both fuses on these larger wires. Should be 30 amp green ones if I remember right. Also, while you have the brain accessible, write down the model number on the brain itself to help you in the future. Most DEI remotes can be used for almost any DEI/Viper/Your Valet system, so it's really hard to tell what you have just by looking at the remote. If the fuses are fine, you may need to take it to a shop (anyone that sells Viper and such). If you have a chip in your ignition key, it may also be the security bypass module that gets installed with the remote start. You will only have this bypass module if you have the little chip in your ignition key. Hope this helps, good luck.

Is the Hornet 569T subject to many problems?

No. Hornet, Avital, Valet, among others are all DEI (Directed Electronics Inc) brands. DEI is the maker of Viper alarm products. So, for those of us in the industry, we know that the "brain" on a Hornet system is EXACTLY the same as a Viper system.

Very Reputable and highly reliable!

DEI REMOTE PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
Need a DEI Remote Replacement Now? Try our all New Remote Quick-Find
Not sure what type of Replacement Remote you need?
In order to enter Learn Routine, the Valet/Program push button must be plugged
into the main brain's Blue 2 Pin Port (Look for a small black push button located under
the drivers dash or drivers kick panel somewhere). If you do not have the Valet/Program switch, you may order it at www.lesscoelectronics.com or www.lesscosales.com

1)
Open a door and make sure the dome light is on.

2)
Turn the ignition on to the RUN position or you may also start car.

3)
Within 15 seconds press and release the Valet/Program push button
to select the channel you wish to program. For example, press and release
once for channel 1 (arm/disarm channel).
For Channel 2, press and release twice (trunk release).
For Channel 3, press and release three times (remote start).
(Some DEI systems require different programming for different channels. You
can get specific installation manuals with remote programming instruction)

Press and hold the Valet/Program push button once more. You should get a
confirmation chirp/horn-honk or a flashing LED light (If installed).
If you do not get a chirp/horn-honk the alarm may have a jumper in
the alarm that has the programming feature turned OFF (disabled).

4)
Once the alarm chirps/horn-honks keep holding the Valet/Program push button.

5)
Press the button on the transmitter that you would like to control the selected receiver
channel. A chirp/horn-honk will confirm that the code has been learned. If programming
more than one transmitter repeat step 5. Old transmitter codes will be dropped only
if programming 4 new transmitters.

6)
Once the code(s) are learned, the Valet/Program push button can be released.

Learn Routine will be Exited if:

Ignition is turned off
Door is closed
Valet/Program push button is pressed too many times
More than 15 seconds elapses between steps
One long chirp/horn-honk indicates that Learn Routine has been exited.

I recently replaced my ignition in my Grand Am. Now my DEI Valet remote starter does not work. How do I reset it or get it to read my remote. I have the kind where you have to press both buttons at the...

Your bypass module has to be reprogrammed if, you have the type that is programmable. If you have relays with inline resistors then they have to be replaced with new resistors. If the ignition switch was swapped out for a new switch, with a new key, the resistance is no longer the same. If the entire ignition harness was changed then the remote starter has to be re-installed at the switch(behind the radio).

It all depends on what type of alarm you have installed on your Gran Prix. Make of alarm and fcc id number of the key fob would be helpful in determining how to put your alarm in valet mode, and still allow remote door unlocking, with alarm off.

You have to turn off your ignition and immediately press that 'eraser like button'(valet switch) for a second and release it. Alarm will then come out of valet mode and your remote should work, if it's good.

Re: Valet keyless entry RPN 473T FCC id: EZSDE1474P Bought this aftermarket fob for my 1999 Chevy Silverado (w/keyless remote) It did not come with programming instructions. Any help obtaining instructions...

The great news is you can program your aftermarket key fob yourself. The most difficult part of this process is locating the little activation button. You have to find your alarm box and follow the wires until you find the programming button.

If you need another aftermarket key fob you can find most models here for a great price: https://www.keylessentryremotefob.com/

Alarm is stuck in valet mode

This will work for many alarms, but not all:
Locate valet push button, may be hidden on or under dash somewhere. Turn on ignition, doesn't have to be started. Then push and hold valet button for a few seconds. Most alarms will chirp to confirm operation was a success.
DEI products require a slightly different procedure, and drivers door has to be open.
Some can be done through the remote.
Model of alarm will help alot, or FCC ID from back of remote. DC

My dei remote starter power up but doesnt start my car

My wife's car was doing the same thing and she took it to the dealer that installed it, they said it was the remote and she needed to order another one for $50. I looked under the hood and the fuse they had installed had blown for some reason. It hasnt blown again yet. But anyway that was what was wrong with hers. You might look for a fuse under your hood that is not factory. Ibelive it was a 30 amp. Good luck!!
