This works for alarm only. If you have remote start as well, you will need to press the valet button 3 times. The valet button is a small red button that was probably placed somewhere along your lower dashboard under your steering column. It is to put the alarm into "valet" mode when you use it, which is basically to temporarily override the unit. The valet button is used as part of the programing process in addition to being how the valet feature is turned on and off. How to program AutoPage XT remote
you need to push it 3 times and then hold, to program the unit for tach, voltage or timer. It will not work until you actually program the unit on HOW YOU WANT IT TO START.
The Autopage XT-42LCD is used to operate two systems, the RF-420LCD and RS-622. Since you state that you need to activate a remote start that narrows it down to the RS-622. You can download the manual for this unit at the following link:
did you follow the procedure for programming the remote starter portion of the unit yet?? We get 20-30 calls a day because people do NOT program the starter to start a certain way. It is specified in the INSTALLATION manual that the unit needs to be programmed before using the remote starter.
If this is the vehicle's factory alarm that is being triggered then your factory alarm must be disarmed prior to the remote starter sequence. The Autopage unit has a factory disarm wire available for this purpose. When the alarm triggers again try turning the key in the driver's door to see if there is a factory disarm wire available in the vehicle or if the factory alarm is RF disarm only. If it is the after market alarm that is being triggered then you made need to decrease the sensitivity.
In some cases, if you hold down a button too long on the remote fob, the starter module goes into a setup "menu", which is possible. You didn't change the fob batteries lately, did you? It sounds like you will have to 'retrain' the fob with the starter unit so that it re-learns what to do when you push the start button. With the "Ultra" brand, you use the button on the windshield antenna to retrain your unit. I'm not sure about the Autopage brand. An installer should be able to reprogram it for you for $10, and that would be the easiest if you can't find the data by doing a Google search.
