So the winter beater that I bought came with a dead Compustar remote. Previous owner never used it, didn't know anything about it.
I put a new battery in the remote and bingo, it works. Connects to the car, unlocks the doors, great. It looks like it also has the remote start functionality, but somehow it's been disabled. When I try the remote start I can hear some clicks and whirring under the hood, but nothing. It tries 3 times and then gives an error on the fob.
Anyone have any familiarity with these and knows what it could be? Seems like something is just disconnected somewhere - maybe it was draining the battery or who knows, but I'd like to see if I can figure out whether something's broken or whether it was disconnected for a reason. Just to know what's going on. Remote is a 2-way like the image below.
