How much range do you need for remote start?
3 miles it could also be affected by mountain hills and stuff like that. Only for this particular alarm system..
I don't think I need 3 mi of range but it's quite impressive that some malls can even go that high
@@sethmunoz3608 Get Mobokey. ;)
It's surprising how no where in the video or their website do they mention the cost. Not for install, not for products, nothing.
Instal $ 400 - $ 700
Not Really, they dont want them sold without pro install, and that is dependent on the shop.
@@rushunt2131 Why not go for MoboKey, its just $160 and around $300 for install.
So it basically does the exact same thing as the factory fob
Reading on the instructions is still been pretty hard for me to get access to the keys to disable and enable it's any way you can have a video that I show me step-by-step how to use the remote you talk about the remote but you don't show a step-by-step remote how to deactivate activate and I need to see that is anyway possible that you can make a video on that It would be great if you could do that I'll be great thanks
I have 2 trucks with cumpustar remoter system can i clear one from one truck and use it on the other truck
Hi, can you use drone mobile with the Compustar CS7900?
Yes!
Any security concerns with the systems (relay attacks, signal repeaters etc.)?
No answers Huhh? Sounds like a great company?
Want an answer to this too.
Yes obviously! There are way too many smart solutions that can help with relay attacks!
@@HammadYSiddiqi Get Mobokey. way better. Fends off these kinds of attacks.
I am going to order a set next week
Great to hear, enjoy!
Getting my T12 installed friday, it ran me $1090 after tax, but I also have a manual trans in my car, so it may be more expensive because of such.
How has it been so far? Planning on it also with a manual car
@@herbertruiz5090 its not bad. It will occasionally leave "reservation mode" so i cant remote start if i open the doors between me leaving it parked, and attempting to use it. Other than that its a great winter convenience
Hey Sean!
Do you know that there are now cheaper solutions on the market? Among them, Mobokey is a very good and affordable option for just $160.
Could you please explain the difference between "ALARM ALERT MODE: "HALF" & "FULL"?? in the PRO t13
No answers Huhh? Sounds like a great company?
Half mode means that you only get confirmation from the system when you lock/unlock your car. Full mode means that if your alarm is triggered, you'll receive an alarm notification.
am finna install this myself, take my money
I've worked at Ford 4 yrs, Jaguar 2yrs , Cadillac 3 yrs. Never have i ever once heard of a dealer doing these installs . My 2010 ford focus has one that was offered by ford BUT they no longer can get parts so i'm SOL.. Unless you mean "dealer" as in a local car audio shop... then sure
Sorry for the confusion. Yes, by dealer we mean authorized retailer, which includes local car audio, big box stores, automotive dealerships, etc.
I bought a CS-7900 AS and a drone along with bypass module. Now I got: alarm system, remote starter and I can use it with my smartphone!!!!
The T9 remote included in that kit is great, but smartphone control with DroneMobile is next level!
@@compustaronline I bet!!!👍👍👍💯💯
I have a 2022 dodge charger my Compustar car alarm t-13 detected a glass break error how can I fix that. My alarm go off everyday 3 times a day.
You still having this problem?
Can you please make the pro T13 available for the 2024 Nissan versa S?? I bought one from a certified pro dealer and they convinced me that it would work. Took my car in the next day for them to install it only for them to say that they couldn't get it installed because of the firmware not being updated yet. They won't refund me and I don't have any key fob or security system in my car...
PLEASE UPDATE FOR THE 2024 NISSAN VERSA S with standard key start
I'll most likely be doing this at Best Buy can I request they use the specific harness without having to splice into any wires?
Yes. If you want the specific t-harness for your vehicle and key type, look here: myfirstech.idatalink.com. Once you find a solution, look for a part number starting with "ADS-THR" in the Accessories row.
My wife just had bestbuy install this in her 2019 car and it doesnt work. WTF. Did this work for your car?
You have to charge the Remote via USB, so how long does it last on a charge, Dont want to have to plug and charge it every night
Anywhere from 15-45 days.
What’s the difference between T11 & T12 ?
The T11/T12 are the same remote. The T11 remote start kit used to come with a second 1-way backup remote whereas the T12 kit now includes a second 2-way backup remote, giving you command confirmation on two remotes!
I have one bottom Compustar remote start on my 2017 F150 stops working just like that,any ideas ???? Thank You.
Hi i have a Compustar 2WQ900AS installed and running in my 2004 Tahoe. Can I upgrade (plug and play) to the Pro T13 or have I re wired the complete harness?
T13 pro is it compatible with old bmw E39??
Does the T12 fob display the Voltage like the T13 Pro?
Looking compustar here at whitehorse yukon
Find a dealer near you at www.compustar.com/find-a-dealer
I wanted to know, do you guy finance the 2 way remote T12? Or ever considered it for someone who just wants to buy the product but can’t purchase it full?
Try setting the turn dial on the DC3 to 10 before starting programming. Then adjust the programming on the DAS-II from there.
Car battery died after I left the lights on my Honda S2000 over night with a Compustar security system. Tried boosting it but have no life at all. Has to be something with the compustar. Does it need to be reset or something. Is it a security thing after the battery is disconnected or dies?
No, but it is possible that when your battery died, your system went into valet mode. Please lookup on our website or youtube, "How to exit valet mode".
What about kill switch
Is drone upgrade compatible with 925?
Yes!
What would it take to add a keypad like the RPS Touch or the newer KP2 to a vehicle with Ford intelligent access? Mine does not have a factory keypad, and the Ford one that can be purchased is not compatible with intelligent access equipped vehicles. I recently locked my key fob in the car accidentally, and had to retrieve my spare fob from home. I dont want remote start, phone app or anything like that, just the ability to unlock the vehicle from the outside should I inadvertently lock my fob in the car again.
Can I purchase from the UK?
Is the new T13 able to command Aux 1-7 ( if configured on a CMX with the OP-500) like the previous T12 was able to?
Yes!
Ha know where to buy it
We should leave one remote inside the vehicle right? So my question is what if robber somehow breaks into car? Could he start engine if one of the remotes is inside the vehicle
No you shouldn't leave a key or remote inside of the vehicle
@@compustaronline mi jeep JL got installed a remote start csx9900as but you are able to drive the car with no key fob mine is push to start, is this normal? if someone breaks my window during remote start can stole my car, any input?
Hello Guys. Do you have to have your factory key fob with you with the new T13 remote? My wife have a 2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio.
Yes. You will still need your factory key fob to drive your vehicle.
Do you need the factory remote to install one? My dog ate my remote and I’m looking for an alternative (dealership quoted me $280+ towing fee) plus it would be nice to start it with my phone.
If installing the T12 system, do you lose the functions/convenience features of the OEM key fob?
Nope! In almost all cases, all factory features are retained on the OEM key fob. The one exception is that while the vehicle is remote started, some OEM keyless entry features may be paused. That said, while the engine is off, all OEM keyless entry features should function as normal.
Does the prox sensor work on every vehicle with the pro line? I have a 2020 ram 2500 tradesmen. So that’s a cool add on if that will work on my truck. And would make it worth spending the extra money for the pro.
Proximity unlock is only available with the PRO T13 and PRO R5 remotes. Yes, it will be a great add-on for your rig. Nice truck, btw! :)
So, Do I have to purchase a "Start it" control module in order to function any of Pro R5 or R13 remote starters?
Yes, you will need the control module to be installed inside yoru vehicle.
did compustart dropped the PRO name with the 2021 remote lineup? i know the 2020 T12 used to be labelled T12 PRO.
The T12 is now a core Compustar remote, meaning that it is no longer a "PRO" product. This means that the T12 can be purchased and installed at ANY Compustar retailer!
can i cut the engine if my car is stolen also can it give me alarm when the engine is on run ?
Any of our 2-way remotes will notify you with audible and visual cues when the engine is running. Our security systems also have a Starter-Kill feature that safely disables your vehicle's starter when your system is armed. Even if a thief manages to get inside your vehicle, the engine will not start until your Compustar security system has been disarmed.
I have a 2018 Jetta with key start. Can I get rid of it agter installing the CompuStar 901 LTE? Also, whay are there 2 CompuStar fobs for a car?
You'll still need your factory key to drive the car. Many of our kits come with two remotes, with one working as a backup.
Are those compustar dealer installer verified ? I saw 1 video that his car was completely damaged on glove box,clips moulding costed over $2000 in repair and it didn’t even work properly. I m planning to have on my RX
Guess what, MoboKey is only $160.
I have SiriusXM Guardian Tracking and Uconnect on my Chrysler 300. Will these services still be available after I install a Compustar PRO T13 with LTE + a Drone X1 LTE Module?
Yes! Compustar systems are engineered so that all factory functionality is retained after installation. Better yet, you'll be able to control your factory functions from your Compustar remote and control your aftermarket functions from your factory remote!
Will it work on A 1999 Toyota Avenue Chaser?
Our System Builder tool does not recognize your vehicle as a compatible model. Please contact an authorized Compustar dealer to confirm.
@@compustaronline thank you
Can this be used with kill switches? I'm talking to security specialists who are convinced kill switches cannot be used alongside systems like compustar and IGLA, because it would generate error codes.
If kill switches are activated on the fuel pump and starter, does that have any impact on this system? Have you guys come across vehicles that already had kill switches installed and then had to work around them due to error codes?
No answer Huhh? Sounds like a great company?
@@ELEVOPR Yeah this was a while ago, I think I remember contacting other companies working with this system and they replied, but I don't remember which companies they were and what they said specifically lol
You're gonna have to look through the channels working with this system.
Is there a option to use proximity entry with my factory key fob and remote start with my factory key fob?
Proximity will only work from the T13/R5 remote. But you can remote start with your factory key fob with Compustar systems.
Does the T12 remote work with the CSX4905S-KIT if you get it upgraded antenna 🤔
Yes it will, though you will need your installer to update your control module to support proximity unlock.
I have Compustar on my vehicle and now it is more than 2 years and it still fine, however, my 2 way remote was accidentally fell and stepped on and the screen has been black out but still working. Do i have to buy a new once? Is there anyway to fix this?
You can order a replacement remote at shop.myfirstech.com!
@@compustaronline thanks. But whrn i do, how can i make it work?
how long will be the engine on with the remote start?
Hi Omar, you can set up your system to run for 3, 5, 15, 30, or 45 minutes. It's up to you!
Is it compatible to KIA Cadenza (K7) model 2012 ?
Our System Builder tool does not recognize your vehicle as a compatible model. Please contact an authorized Compustar dealer by using our Dealer Locator to confirm.
If I'm outside the USA and purchase the remote start, are there any special requirements for an install outside the USA?
Car wiring and wiring colors may differ. Other than that, not much difference, especially if you're just up north in Canada.
@@compustaronline I've bought one for the Chevy Colorado and was looking to purchase a T harness, however the Colorado is the Asian market. Is the American T harness compatible with the Asian Colorado?
How do you purchase outside the U.S. like Australia?
Thank you for your interest in Compustar! Unfortunately, Compustar is only sold in North America at this time.
What is the cost to install in F350??
Cost varies depending on which remote you choose, additional special features, as well as your vehicle's car make, year, and model. We suggest contacting an authorized Compustar dealer near you for a detailed quote!
What the price on them t13. It install on a Infiniti fx35.??
Yes! Build your system and request a quote from a dealer today! www.compustar.com/system-builder
Would this system work on a corvette c8?
Yes
What are the key differences of the T13 vs the T12?
The most notable difference between the two is that the PRO T13 has a full-color LCD and includes our Proximity Unlock feature that automatically unlocks your vehicle when the remote is within 3-6 feet of your vehicle. The PRO T13 remote start kit also includes the 2-way PRO R5 as a backup remote, which also features Proximity Unlock!
Hello, im from europe, can i order compustar?
Unfortunately, Compustar is only available in United States and Canada.
Why i can not find a delar in Sweden,?
Hi Ayman, unfortunately all of our dealers are located in North America.
Are y'all about to split ways with best buy :(
Not at all!
It's a little hard to steal a car with an hour install time. No thanks
huh?
@@compustaronline Lol nothin
This is not helpful at all!!
Your website is bunch of bull crap
It says that it doesn’t support many car models but installers can actually make it work
Hi Dennis, sorry about that. We're hoping to expand our vehicle coverage - but are trying to take into account which vehicles our installers are willing to work on. You can technically add a remote start to a Lambo Aventador, but if only .1% of our installers are willing to take on a job like that, we have to list it as incompatible.
My wife just had this put on her 2019 car and it doesnt work. Bullshit.
Can we start and off car engine from mobile phone apps while we are on overseas ?
Yes. As long as your phone and car have cell reception, you can remote start your car from the DroneMobile app.
Wow, no one thought of asking price?
Hi Javier - any price we could provide would be a wide range that's not very helpful. Starting price for a remote start on a non-Euro vehicle is $299-$349. Hopefully that's helpful.
I have a 96 Ford. When I looked up wiring setups for the 15,000 foot range. It only had options for 99 and newer. Are there certain inputs that I need to have that kit? Is it possible to jumper? Is there a way to make this work? Never done remote starts but I do electrical work for a living
