12 volt solution remote starter

[Chucky313]

So I installed the remote starter with the app module on my 13 LX and I'm very impressed. I had the factory remote starter it's good but it's "factory" but in order to install the 12 volt starter I had disable the factory starter ( it was pain in a$$)

Through the app, you can lock/unlock, start it/cancel start, open/close the half tailgate (automatic tailgate), track it if it gets stolen, battery voltage, outside temperature.

The truck shuts off when you open the door when it's running. ( Toyota safety security )

Is it worth it ? Yes it is specifically during the winter. It's nice warming the truck before you leave to or from work.

Looks like it's got some nice features. Have a link to where you purchased the kit and install docs for a LX/LC?

I had no issue with the factory starter, for the 12 volt solution to work, I had to disconnect it from all ecu's, I got this really because of the app. I wanna start it before I leave work in like 10-15 mins.

How does the app connect to the truck? WiFi, cell?

I believe it's via a 4g network. It's got good coverage overall, but my app isn't as glamorous as @Chucky313 's comparatively.

Does it mean you have to buy a cell plan? Or do you have to buy a subscription from them?

they sell 1/3 year subscriptions I believe. The annual plan is around $100 iirc. I can't remember for sure. "carlink" is the app you use. 12V solutions just supplies the hardware.

It's a year subscription from them. It's worth it in my opinion.
