Hey Jeff you might go to Sound choice and see if Gus could help you out with it. If anyone could do it I think he could. He may know how to reprogram it.

theres no way to do any thing with a tech 2 that I Have seen. I have looked a couple times. its the same remote start used on the gassers and belive the alarm moudule is preprogrammed from the manafacture. it would be nice to find a way to get more delay and a longer idle time but im not holding my breath.

I have a question because i'm curious. Sorry for the OT

Is the programing in the BCM for the remote start?
