Remote start for 2k2?

Circuit City spent all day installing my Viper550 with all the options today. For some reason they couldn't get the remote start to work. When you press the button, it sounds like it wants to start but isn't getting fuel. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

And a completly unrelated question: I also had a 1 fared cap. put in today. I set all my audio settings back to how they were before but my system sounds a little different (maybe it's just paranoia). When you get a cap. put in do the amps need to be readjusted? I think I'm just paranoid.

Thanks for any and all help,
Matt

Matt, it may be the immobilizer working its wonders. I don't know about the Viper but i know the Clifford has a built-in bypass for the immobilizer.

Matt:
The 5th gen Maximas have a chip inside the key. What you need to do is use one of your valet keys and purchase a DEI 555U. The module from DEI bypasses your factory oem starter interrupt. I had to do this when I installed my fully loaded Clifford Concept 100.

Thats the same alarm i have. Mine works, you need the chip in the thinging that goes under the dash or it will never work. But being circuit city they prob have no idea.

they have my valet key with the chip in it in there already, it just won't start, one guy said it must be something new for 2k2s b/c they've done 2k-2k1s with no problem

yeah that's usually the case but i really trust the guy doing it and he did a great job on the rest of my system, he's never done a maxima before so i'd count him as inexperienced rather than an idiot
