Is it standard on 13 LCs. If so mine doesn't work just tried it
-25F this morning. Plugged in my LX last night just to cut back on the stress of a cold start. Hit the remote start when I started getting ready for work and the truck was toasty warm when I got in. WORTH IT!

...but it now also shuts off when I step away with the key in my pocket. Example is if I step into the store for a soda with the family still in the car, I have to leave the key with them.
If you have one it will say it under the hood. After you open the hood look up and if you have it it will state this vehicle is equipped with remote start. I guess techs need to know this before the work on the engine?
Does someone have this PDF that they could post here? Did anyone figure out if it's possible to program remote start such that it doesn't turn off when you enter the vehicle?Going to have to try this to see if I have one installed.
Here's the Toyota instructions for operation. It has a lot of useful info on the system. http://www.toyota.com/t3Portal/document/omnav/OMTADG0290D/pdf/T-ADG-0290-D.pdf

Resurrecting an old thread here... It seems that Toyota disagrees. My wife's 2020 GX shuts off when you use remote start and open a door.It's a factory toyota oversight. My 2012 Grand Cherokee has factory remote start. I start it remotely and the doors stay locked. I unlock it by the handle with my FOB in my pocket and it stays running. I can hop in but it's not shifting or moving until I touch the brake and hit the starter button. Then I can go on my merry way.
I would be interested to see if the vehicle could be operated if someone was locked in the vehicle while its started remotely. The reason I'm wondering is perhaps a savvy tech could disable the part of the process that cuts the engine when the door is opened.
