remote starter question for group.

Jan 30, 2007 5 Replies

My 2001 santafe remote start only works when I hold the remote 1 ft. from the antennae.. Is their a resource or faq somewhere that might help in troubleshooting? Obviously the antenna is a logical place to start,I tried the only installer in town,but they wont touch it because they did not install it. nearest city is 5 hrs drive. the remote start is an astrostart 11`00 or 2100 series. thanks for your help. zenox.


Have you changed the battery in the remote?

That being the case, I would suspect a broken antenna connection in the receiver.

Easiest fix is to hard wire it with a 500' extension cord.
