Car Alarms: auto start, alarmtek, valet 551t


Question
I have a auto-mate 3 alarm installed i my van. Along with that I have a valet 551T auto start unit. After many years of service I think that the auto start unit is failing. While driving the van the engine will randomly shutdown as if you have stepped on the brake while the auto start feature is in use. The engine just dies no sputtering or chugging that is why I think that the auto start feature is the problem. I disconnected the wire harness that goes to the unit but now the alarm will set itself even if the car is running with the key in it. Any help will be appreciated

Answer
Sorry, we do not service, sell or support
DEI car alarms, keyless entry or remote starter
systems here at ALARMTEK, and as such do not provide
any technical advice for it either.

By mutual agreement with DEI, I do not offer assistnace
to owners of they're products on this site.

AUTO MATE is 1 such DEI product.

However, to get some assistance for your issue with
faulty or malfunctioning DEI equipment, please
go to www.INSTALLSUPPORT.com to see if you
can get some help there, or contact a local DEI dealer
for the support that comes with the system you own.

Good luck with it.
