Hi, I have a 2006 Mazdaspeed 6 GT. I was having my cousin put in a remote start in the car, he has done about 700-1000 remote starts so he isn't clueless. He was putting in a bypass for the proxy key as well. After the install the car wouldn't start at all. He and his boss went over the install the next day and couldn't find anything. Thinking the car had lost the key codes I had the car trailered to the local Mazda dealer.
They decided to remove everything electrical out of the car, claiming it could have faulted the PCM. They even wanted to pull my bass knob which runs to my after market amp since the didn't know what it did.
After all this they "tested" the PCM and told me that it was fried along with the factory alarm, and the proxy key sensors.
Is it even possible that a short in the remote start could cause all this, without any fuses going or anything???
They are saying it will be $2300 or more to replace these parts.
If there is no other option can a used PCM be used on the car and does anyone have one?
Please help!
