    After remote starting my truck the other night, the Fob buttons refused to work. Thinking it may be a dead battery I got the 2nd Fob and it did not work either. While pressing the buttons on either Fob the Red light did not come on. I drove the truck for about an hour and when I pulled back into my driveway they both worked ok. The drive was in the middle of the snow storm we were experiencing on Sat night, just wondering if the heavy snow might have had something to do with it. Been working good since then.

    Never had that issue once I learned I could remotely start with the factory fob. I had a top-of-the-line Viper alarm installed, and with the Viper fob, you can remotely start it up to a mile away.
