As you know, a remote starter is designed to duplicate turning the key in the ignition cylinder. A remote starter can cause serious damage if not properly wired. Computers and modules are very sensitive to voltage dips and spikes and wires and connections can be damaged from from heat build up if they are overloaded. Bad results may often occur from incorrect installs. May be why it says to run a fused line off the battery as a precaution.
