Start-X Remote Starter Kit for RAM 1500, 2500, 3500 (2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017) Trucks | Key Ignition | Plug & Play Install | Lock 3X to Remote Start | Zero Wire Splicing

I ordered this unit for my 2015 Ram 1500, and it arrived within 2 days. I went through the setup process (easy if you pay close attention to the steps) and brought the module inside to finish programming on the computer with the supplied USB connector. The unit would not flash. I called customer service and was connected to a tech in minutes. He walked me through the process, including the download for the final program, and realized I had a bad module quite quickly. He asked me to send a picture of the module, which i promptly did, and he immediately sent me a replacement. Worked perfectly. Do NOT spend $100's of dollars to have a remote starter installed by a shop! This unit is exactly what you would pay $700 +/- for at a fraction of the cost, and works perfectly. It uses the factory tip key as the remote, thus giving you much more range for the startup. I highly recommend this product, and the customer service is top notch! It required very little dismantling (pull the dash panel off), and took all of 30 minutes to program and install. I am duly impressed! I found the instructions clear and concise, as long as you follow them to the letter. Best bang for the buck you can find!

I just installed it today, and so far it's working perfectly. The installation took me maybe 20 minutes, the longest part probably being the software install and flash on my laptop. It's cheap, it's straightforward, and it's exactly as it is described. I'm happy with the product.

installed in 40 minutes total time - installing - programing and put everything back together. Worked perfectly - just follow the directions.

I can’t believe how easy this was to install and program! Maybe 30 minutes from start to finish with programming.

Is about 10 months using this and most of the time works fine. Was easy to install. Is working fine. Few things that i found: *While truck was running, i unlocked the doors and i opened the left rear door and truck stopped. Not sure if that supposed to happen. *One other time i found my truck running and locked and i never started in the first place, so not sure at this point what happened. *As for if you have the truck running from the remote, and then you open the door the truck should stop in 45 sec. if you do not doing nothing (i mean put the keys in the ignition and turn it on, and foot on the brake pedal) - this never worked for me, will try again and update this if it works as their manual say. >But 95-98% works as it should.

I was tired of living like a mere peasant. I bought this remote start for my 2016 RAM 1500 to upgrade my status from mere peasant to normal mortal. This Start-X provided me with the social upgrade I was after. Highly recommend!!! Actual time to install from removal of dash and to reassemble and test was 20 minutes. Great product. Thank you Start-X for the social upgrade.

Install was a little tricky with the programming part but the actual hardware install is super simple and instructions clear and easy to follow. You will need a computer to program your device but there is install videos that explain it pretty clearly. I’m just not a tech guy so that part gave me a little trouble. 30 minute install at the most. And works perfectly now.

It’s worth for money I installed on 2014 ram 1500 it’s working perfectly fine and easy to install

Plug and Play easy to install, very happy with this product. Took about 20mins install

(1 month update) Functionality ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ease of installation ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kept registering my 2017 ram sport as a 2015 classic. I had to mess around with it in the weblink but you can figure it out if that happens. It definitely works though. The dash says “key in ignition” when the doors are closed and the trucks locked, and it says “door open” right after that but it’s not bothersome if you’re not in the truck. 1 month update: the command start still works, I’ve noticed the fob is a hit or miss for the command start, it does not work everytime you try to start it easily, it takes multiple attempts to start. (Still works) sometimes the truck doesn’t lock for multiple attempts, I’ve had to use my key twice to open my door. when you enter the fob to drive the truck after you start with the fob it’s a straight 50/50 if it actually turns over or shuts off on you when you put it in gear. It’s not ideal but not a bad trade off for the Alberta winters to have a warm vehicle lol. I plan to resync it again eventually.

Super easy to install. Works great. I like that you can shut it off from the fob as well.

Instructions were pretty straight forward. Easy enough install, didn’t take long. Took a few tries to get it to connect but it said if that was the case to just restart the process and after a few tries it worked. Downloading the “software” or whatever it’s called to program it didn’t take as long as I thought and the second I started the programming it took no more than 5 minutes. Went out to plug it in and worked like a charm.
