Default Fob Remote Starter

If We don't continued paying the Enform Remote Subscription. Would the FOB remote starter work? Weird but I can get mines to work since yesterday.

I never had Enform and the remote start works. The remote is RF (radio frequency) so nothing to do with the app or subscription.

Thats what I thought.
I tried both remotes and nothing... it has been working all this time but seen yesterday's snow storm and freezing temperatures. Very weird.

I don't have a Lexus remote start, but on my CTS-V if there is an issue the remote start won't work.. For example, one time the remote start wouldn't work so I started the vehicle manually. As soon as I started it the dash warning came on alerting me of low pressure (nail in tire) in the right rear tire.

I later found out from my SA that the remote start will not start the vehicle if there is any issues with the car. Not sure if the Lexus remote start works the same..

Must of them they do. If the check engine light is on , emergency signals, hood open. It won't start.
None of these are my problem.
Will keep you posted but so far on the NX forum alot of them when the Subcription Expired the FOB stop working.

I don't have the enform system but the older RES+ system and my system works just fine without a subscription.

i personally think this is a waste of money. i have it and i didn't bother to renew the subscription. the system worked only half the time using the app.

Before the GX I had a Honda Civic with drone mobile. Can't tell you how much I miss that system 😭. I want to stick to Lexus manufactured products but if after market is the way to go then that's what I'll do.

Did you resolve the issue? I just realized that my 2010 also has remote start and tried out yesterday and it worked fine. Pretty cool though and I can see it's useful during those California cold mornings when it get into the 40's hahah
