Default Remote Starter Lexus Installed

If it's company installed Remoter starter

Following process needs to follow for Starting and stopping

- Press Lock Button twice
- Press Lock Button third time and keep it pressed for 3 seconds

Observations:

- Car will run for 10mins and will stop
- As soon as you open Door it will stop car
- For starting and stopping - you need to follow same steps (Older version requires only pressing Lock button or Unlock button to stop the car
- Lexus will be fading out Company Installed remote starter and will rely on Enform Remote for all functionality (Which is very buggy at the moment)

Enjoy the Ride

Lexus Enform has the same shut off and we have to pay for it.




Whether it's a cold morning or hot afternoon, this feature lets you remotely start your vehicle to warm or cool the interior based on the last climate control settings. The engine will run for up to 10 minutes or until any door is opened, the brakes are pressed or the engine is turned off remotely.

I had the Enform remote for the few months I had an NX and I hated it. It didn't connect most of the time, took forever to connect when it did and took way too long to give status information. I plan to install SmartStart next year which I had on my Nissan Rogue and absolutely loved.

I have the smart start installed on my GX and love it. It still turns off when you open the door but it can be programmed to run as long as 18 minutes I believe and will allow 1 restart after that.

I personally think the turn off is a good thing as the restart allows your phone's bluetooth to connect automatically.
Are you able to just use your fob or did anything else change?

I can use my fob the same way OEM works but I can also use my phone from anywhere to check location, codes, lock, unlock, check to see if it's locked, unlocked, see if the alarm has or is going off and I'm sure a few more things that I forget.
