My Remote Start Was Broken

My remote start has been broken on my car for ages (12-18 months) I finally went in today to get it replaced at Circuit City, it was going to be close to $300. They just called me and they were able to fix it!!! I’m pretty sure that there is no charge for that, so I just saved a few hundred dollars! I have no idea why I procrastinated this long, I could have had it working for ages now…

I have to say it’s really nice to have the remote start in the winter, but it’s just as nice in the summer to have it start cooling the car (especially when I’m wearing a tie or a suit). Mine didn’t really have much of a range but it was enough to start it from inside at work and that’s when it’s outside the longest so that’s when I need it the most.

Let’s hope it really works as well as the guy said, he said to give them about a 1/2 hour to put it back together (I’m at the Border’s across the street) so I’ll find out soon.

Later: It works great!!! They didn’t charge me anything! It was a fused fuse in a spot that wasn’t user-replacable…
