Compustar S Controllers CM 4200
1WFM4R remotes
Car 2002 Alero
When the temperature goes below -20C or -4F the car will not start.
It starts for 2 seconds and then shut off and tries 2 more time etc.
It still does the same thing is the car is plugged in. (engine nice and warm)
I can start it easily with one turn of the key.
I have read on this Forum that...
"Nissans have two starter wires a cold start and a warm start you have to power both wires in order to have the remote starter to work properly on cold days."
Does it apply to an Alero (Oldsmobile)
Help, This is the 2nd second winter this is happening. We live in Winnipeg, Canada and 40 plus mornings a years are colder then -20C
PS the controllers was changed out between the 2 winters (due to something frying it), Different controller, same problem.
Can't reproduce the problem at the Garage (where it was installed) because once I drive it the problems goes away. Until it sits over night in -20C temp again.
I have also see on this forum, that the battery maybe low.
How can I test this without changing the battery.
