Remote Start

When the weather's taken a turn for the worst, there's hardly a feeling better than knowing you've started your vehicle before you've even gotten in for the drive. Want to enjoy that convenience, too? Install a remote start system.

Having one can mean being able to turn on both your heater and air conditioner according to whether it's cold or warm out. That means a warm-up for your engine and cabin, a defrost for your windshields and car windows, or, alternatively, cooling off your seats, armrests, steering wheel, and the rest of your interior.

How remote start works is pretty straightforward. Simply press a button (or a pattern of buttons) on your keyless entry fob. The remote transmitter inside the fob then signals a radio receiver (a control module) installed in your vehicle.

GM remote start systems, for instance, can have many other features as well -- two-way communication support, compatibility with select security systems, you name it. Two-way functionality can tell your remote when it's received a signal. An integrated car security system can detect everything from collisions to theft -- just pair it with one of those optional two-way remotes. Then, if anything happens, the system can let you know.
