Red light on
Hi All, red light on dash sometimes and will start and cut out immediately 3 times or more.
Press the remote to lock it and then itโ€™s fine.
Any ideas.
Thanks

My spare remote has always behaved like this, never found a reason why.

My day to day remote starts the car first time, as it should do.
My spare remote will only start the car after I have re-locked and unlocked using the remote. Seven years it's been like that, so have just learnt to live with it. Fob battery change made no difference. It started with a kiss, never thought it would come to this.
SIII CSW Safari, limestone, (JAC 914N). Where is she now?

It's not a car, it's a way of life!

Should be that remote fob battery is too low.

once fob battery changed go outside the vehicle with doors closed, I stand close to the drivers door as the alarm module is under the dash above the drivers footwell. click the lock button on the fob four times and it will re sync. Then unlock with fob and make sure its on the same ring as the key and it should start first time.
If you have two key fobs only have one fob with you each time you do this as having both fobs in close proximity can cause issues.. so leave one indoors. Do the first fob re sync process and start the vehicle. . Then stop after a minute , take new synced fob in doors bring other one out and repeat process.
