Hello Friends:
I Have A 2002 Ford Taurus Ses, And Went To Have A Bulldog Remote Starter Model Rs122 Installed Yesterday. When I Went To Pick Up The Car After Hours And Try The Starter, It Wasn't Working Right, And I'm Trying To Figure Out Why. Here's What Happens:
1. When I Press The Start Button, You Can Hear The Fuel Pump Come On, But Then Nothing Happens.
2. When I Press Start Again, It Will Start The Engine, But It Runs For About 6 Seconds, And Then Dies.
3. The System Will Attempt To Restart The Car 3 Times, And The Results Are The Same. It Dies After 6 Seconds.
4. On One Occasion, The Car Started And Didn't Die. But, Then I Heard This Horrible Grinding Sound, And Realized That The Remote Starter Was Trying To Start The Engine When It Was Already Running!!
-----
This Is Very Strange Behavior, And I'm Wondering If Anyone Can Direct Me To The Problem. Is It An Anti-theft Problem , Or Getting Around The Car's Security System? They Actually Had To Imbed My Second Key Into The Transponder Unit To Get Around The Anti-theft System Or Something Like That. Or, Is This A Wiring Issue?
Regardless, I Will Take It Back To See What Is Wrong, But Wanted To Check First To See If You Had Any Thoughts.
Thanks For Your Help!
