I was perusing the forum and saw the remote start for a MEP set for sale and my brain started wondering "Has anyone rigged a remote start up to their truck, and if so, how?"
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!

There are 24v remote start kits out there. The problem on the older trucks would be the engine stop.
Older trucks have a pull stop lever.What is the problem that exists with the engine stop with the remote starts? Is it by-passing the shut off solenoid when attempting to start, or when trying to shut the engine off?
Not taking it that way at all.Guess I'm particular but a PMCS is required before moving the vehicle so pointless to remote start it from anywhere since before one starts it they need to check if all systems are a go.
I have a CDL and if I were to have done a remote start on my CDL test I would of been failed before the truck built up air pressure.
Cool idea to have and is nice in a Class 1 to Class 3 vehicle but these rigs need PMCSing before leaving our driveways to prevent accidents that will give MV's a bad name. Good example, look at the 40 plus footer Class A diesel pushers going down the road with 90 year old man with cataracts and a colostomy bag strapped on towing a Jeep or more, not a ounce of responsibility there be taken.
Not meaning to bash the OP so don't take it that way, I'm just picky.
