OEM remote starter detection

If the vehicle has an active OEM remote starter it will program into convenience only (no immobilizer bypass). The reason for this

is to allow aftermarket security to be installed while keeping the factory remote starter active. If you wish for the interface to control

the remote start sequence, perform one of the following:

How to determine if a vehicle is equipped with an OEM remote starter?

An "ENGINE STARTER" sticker should be on the remote.

Press the remote control's lock button twice within 2 seconds, then press and hold the lock

button for 3 seconds.

The parking lights flash after 3 seconds. The engine starts and the parking lights flash

repeatedly for 20 seconds.

If the vehicle is equipped with an Add-On Lexus/Toyota OEM remote starter: The factory remote starter must be

permanently disconnected before programming the Directed interface as both modules cannot coexist. See "Physical OEM

remote start fuse location".

If the vehicle is equipped with a BCM Enabled Lexus/Toyota OEM remote starter: The vehicle does not have a physical

remote starter and only one module can be programed at a time. In this case temporally disable the OEM remote start system

using the following process:

1. Remove the fuse powering the OEM Remote Starter. See "OEM remote start fuse location"

2. Perform a "Soft reset" or "Hard reset".

3. Perform the "Module programming".

4. After programming is successful replace the fuse powering the OEM Remote Starter.
