hey guys, so i bought a ready remote do it yourself remote start install kit during the summer and never got around to putting it in. With the weather in MA in the teens now i wouldn't mind having it in the car to warm it up from the house like my truck use to. I know that i need to by some bypass for it but not sure which one. Does any bypass for a mustang work for any remote start? anyone have any advice on where to get one for a decent price? thanks!

Just search around. not sure on the best place, last time I checked Best buy had them for ~$40, but it's been a few years.

It's just any PATS bypass. Basically you put a spare key into the tumbler box and it constantly streams the signal to the ignition.

You can also accomplish this if you have a handheld tuner by simply requesting to have your tune modified to disable the PATS system. that's all the bypass does.

you can pick up bypass kits at Advance as well...they can order them...had to order one for a nissan maxima last week because he bought a remote start kit not knowing about it.

well i have an sct xcal 3 so would that disable it? or should i just get the bypass?

you can have it disabled via tuner

can i do it with the tuner by hand or do i need another custom tune made? i really like the 93 race tune that i currently have

im pretty sure that a tuner needs to write it into the tune

Yea, Just contact your tuner and tell them you need PATS disabled. Some will do it for free, others may charge you $20. Still cheaper and easier than the bypass.
