got remote starter but a/c won't work right

I know this is in the wrong thread but i am not getting any help in the electronics thread. I put my remote starter in and everything works right except the a/c. It will turn on and the fan in the front will come on but it won't blow air out. anyone had this problem and how did you fix it?

The fan for the AC doesn't turn on until the car is warm. This is so the AC doesn't blow HOT air into the cabin.

Did you have the car on and wait for a couple of minutes? Try waiting for a little while and see if it turns on.

i just went out and checked it. the car is still completely warm. the ac fan in the front of the car turns on but the fan inside won't. when i put the key in the ignition the a/c will stay on the same exact setting except it will blow air out then.

Dont really understand, your A/C comes on but it doesnt blows air?, then in your last post the ac will stay on same setting except it will blow air out? what?

Do you have the accessorie wire connected to your accesories? also is ur ac on when the car is off?

sorry for the confusion guys. my ac is on and everything just does not blow air out. i can have the fan speed on 4 and it shows that its on 4 but does not blow air out. now when i put the key in and turn it to the on position so i can leave the air will start blowing out. i have the accessory wire connected correctly im almost 100% sure about that.

My head hurts reading this thread. The AC works ONLY when the car is on. It should not be blowing anything when in first ACC position and should only blow air, not conditioned air at the second ACC position. And what does the remote start wires have to do with anything. As long as the car is ON, the AC should work. If it doesn't, I think you might have other problems.

just check your wires, im not exactly sure not knowing the 2000 as much as the 2k2 i have. In mine you need to connect starter, second starter, 12v, ignition, access, and second access. The second access needs a relay and DO not connect it to the same wire. it's a completely different wire.

did you install it? You might want to take it to a car/audio place.
