    you didn't install one of the anti-theft bypass kits

    If I remember correctly from my install some 5 yrs ago, there's three wires that tie into the alarm (power, ground, and a negative out while starting) and three wires that tie into the factory key cylinder (one that ties into a signal wire, and the other two split another), and there's a little bit of archaic programming (ignition on/off with key in and button pushing kind of thing).

    It's really no worse than installing the remote start itself

    It was installed at dealer or came from factory. It has worked until last year,I think it may be a switch or programming.

    Then my suggestion is to take it back to the dealer, or at least to a reputable car stereo installation shop and ask them to dig into it... that's assuming you lack the skills and knowledge to troubleshoot it yourself.
