Hey guys,
Haven't been around for a while... still driving and lovin' the CX-7 (especially now that gas prices have dropped again - LOL)... however, I'm having a problem with the remote start. Was hoping maybe one of you guys have heard of this and/or know what the issue might be.
I have the smart key system and the factory Mazda remote starter.
If I'm sitting in the car, it works. If I'm outside the car away from it it doesn't. The shop that installed it said it needed reprogramming, so we went through the steps. That seemed to fix it. However, when I got the car home, it went back to not working.
Anyone know of anything? I can and will take it back to the installers, however, they don't do a lot of factory systems (we didn't use aftermarket because it doesn't "play nice" with the smart key) so any tips from people who know would only be helpful.
Anyone know the reprogramming steps? Where I could download the installation manual?
Thanks!
Amy

... exterior tomorrow. Got a road trip this weekend and was hoping the remote start would be fixed by then, but alas...
