my remote start works just fine except only for a copuple seconds then shuts off. i was needing to know if anybody knows how to fix it.

You need to have the unit programmed to sense rpm and hook up the sense wire to an AC source like a neg. coil wire or if DIS then the neg wire on an injector. The module needs to know the car is running.

If you want more info post what kind of unit you have and how you have it hooked up.

Or on some units you can connect it to the charge light on the dash.

I believe it should be the - wire of your ignition coil.
