4105L 1-Way Remote Start System with 4-Button Remote

Everything works perfect if you know what you’re doing. THIS IS NOT Plug and play. It is a wire in unit that you have to splice into your factory wires. My truck is older so it didn’t have a plug and play one for it. This thing just works awesome had no problem putting it in and everything works on it

For the price I paid for this system, the value is amazing. I bought one for each of my cars, they took about 1.5 to install and run the relays, new wires, and get everything set up. If you have a chip in your key, you will need extra parts to make the remote start portion work. I didn't need this, which made it a breeze to install. As others have mentioned, it doesn't come with "Installation Instructions", it also didn't come with a wiring diagram. It does come with a list of what each wire does, but that's about it. I strongly recommend you get this professionally installed if you're not familiar or comfortable with automotive wiring. The relay diagram is for a negative pulse door lock system. Also, a bitwriter is convenient, but not required, you can program it with the valet button and your fob. One thing I found annoying is that it doesn't come with a remote LED light, if you're handy you can solder one on the board where the mounted LED is and run it to your dash. Overall fantastic product for the money. Range has been good too, works from about 300ft away in a building.

With a little help from internet resources was pretty easy. We used it to replace a faulty mid-2000s car starter. Basically just repinned wires from old install and cross referenced the wiring diagram from the old and new system, and used the new antenna. Started up first try and also used the door lock unlock.This unit has a ton of features that we didn't use (installed in a 2005 toyota echo), like alarm siren output and rear defrost. It's also possible to activate this unit with a cellphone but it appears you need to create an installer account with directechs.com.

This system was easy to install and the directions were easy to fallow. Works every time and plays nice with Subarus. (Older ones I can verify. I Installed one for a customers 01 Outback and bought one for own car a 03 Outback) However, I am an auto tech and did have access to the vehicles wiring diagrams to make sure I was connecting the Avital wires to the proper circuits on the vehicles. If you do not have your vehicles wiring diagrams or are unfamiliar with your vehicle, you should do your home work first before trying to install. Avital's directions are easy to understand and tell you what its own wires/outputs control, but you need to know where those functions are on your own vehicle so you can connect the Avital system in. All in all, if you have your vehicles diagrams installing this device is easy. You can sometimes coax your dealer to print off a copy of your vehicles diagram(s)...we like donuts too.

This starter did not come with instructions, and when my mechanic tried to phone the number listedfor help, no one answered the phone.This was a very big disappointment for me.
