Hi,

Had an autostart brand remote car starter installed by my local
Honda dealer in Dec 2004. It always fails to start when the outside
temperature is around -15C or below. That's cold but not freezing
by no means, as it often gets -25C to -30C here on winter nights.

Bypass seems to be the problem, as the car cranks three times for
5 seconds before giving up. When I use the key, the car will start
within
2 or 3 seconds. Works fine when above -15C, but I want a car starter
that works in the winter, not in the summer.

I've brought it into the dealer now a total of 6 times, including just
a few
days ago when a newer version of the bypass was installed. Now it's
actually worse.

Anyone have a similar experience with an autostart brand remote car
starter? From the remote it looks like the "AS-2000 SH" model.

Thanks.
