How to Reset Dodge Remote Start
If you need to reset your Dodge remote start, the process can vary depending on the model and age of your car. Here are some tips based on the information available:
For Newer Cars (Five Years Old or Newer):
– If your car is five years old or newer, it’s likely that the remote start can only be reset by the dealership. This is because many new transponder keys can only be reset by the service department.
For Older Cars:
– For older cars, you may be able to reset the remote start using the instructions in your owner’s manual or by consulting websites like ProgramYourRemote.com to see if your car’s procedure is listed.
Specific Tips for Dodge Rams:
– On both new and older Rams, turning the key to the On position and then Off again can reset the remote start for three more restarts without using the key.
– For a 2005 RAM 3500, if the truck is in service mode, preventing the remote from working, you can turn the ignition key on, wait until the dash lights are done checking, and then press the remote start button quickly three times to reset it.
– If the remote start is disabled and the message “remote start disabled, start vehicle to reset” appears, starting the vehicle can reset the remote start.
Other Considerations:
– If the remote start system isn’t working properly, it may be due to low battery levels in the key fob, components needed to start the engine not working, or other issues such as the car not being in park or doors being open.
It’s important to note that the specific steps for resetting the remote start may vary based on the model and year of your Dodge vehicle. If you’re unsure about the process, it’s recommended to refer to your owner’s manual or consult a professional for assistance.
Remember to always prioritize safety and follow the recommended procedures for your specific vehicle.
