  1. it either needs a longer crank time

    changed from voltage sense to actual tach

    or its a vehicle issue. if its not every time Id tend to lean to the vehicle being the issue and not he alarm. my old cavalier would do it every once in awhile.

    This. don't change programming yourself. you had it installed professionally and have a lifetime warranty. have them check for you whether tach is hooked up and not voltage sense or virtual tach. make them honor it. If tach is hooked up the threshold needs to be changed. Know that it is the holidays now and it is the busiest time of the year for them. call ahead and schedule an appointment and make sure the most knowledgeable installer at the shop can look at it for you. its really not a common problem, especially with DEI products, for vehicles to not start like that. i always run tach in all of my installs and its rare that a vehicle doesn't start consistently. when tach is learned the brain knows when the engine has started. if it doesn't start up the unit would hold the starter a little longer depending on the tach threshold as well.

    What t-money is explaining to you is to change the unit to read tach. the only problem with that is it wont work the first time because tach would have to be learned. if you do what he says it wont remote start anymore, though it is what needs to be done (after tach is connected). your best option for now would be to change it to virtual tach or voltage sense (whichever it is not on) and test. before you do all this though, take it to the installers.

    EDIT: he said 3 chirps, thats crank time
