Re: STOP!!!! THIEF!!!! RV Alarm Systems

Not wishing to wait until Friday, I contacted Best Buy and told them

Just an update. I'm having a remote starter problem with the NuStart system.

If I remote start the van, and let it run through it's warm up cycle (default is

Re: STOP!!!! THIEF!!!! RV Alarm Systems

The Viper 5901 and the NuStart 8000 (which I chose for price) were the best systems I could find up

Re: STOP!!!! THIEF!!!! RV Alarm Systems

Hi again Dan,
I was just browsing this thread for an update and realized again that the price seemed a bit low,
but 2 wires might be enough to install a functional alarm system. I was under the...

Re: STOP!!!! THIEF!!!! RV Alarm Systems

I also posted this mini-saga in the "Security" thread, that another forum member posted

Re: STOP!!!! THIEF!!!! RV Alarm Systems

I'd say "yes" and "probably".
The install is probably a lot more complicated to be diy possible.

Re: STOP!!!! THIEF!!!! RV Alarm Systems

Thanks for the info. We may be in that neck of the woods before year's end, and

Re: STOP!!!! THIEF!!!! RV Alarm Systems
