Could this be used as a push to start button in a car?

Like everyone said about the momentary switch.. Plus if you didn't know this already you would have to keep the ignition switch wired in because of all the accessories that need power. The ignition switch has multiple positions. Run is what powers the accessories plus the all the computer systems that read what is going on with your vehicle. Start is the momentary switch that powers the starter. Without a switch that supports the Run function your computers might not let your vehicle start. Just a heads up if you didn't already know... If the vehicle is pre 1988 you may be able to make something work with a momentary switch and no ignition switch but i'm not positive about that one. Like everyone said about the momentary switch..

Seconding what everyone has said, keep in mind that the rating for the momentary is as stated: "Works at 12 Volts 10 Amp, 24 Volts 5 Amp, and 110 Volts AC 5 Amp." Now, I'm not car guru, but I did take electronics courses, but make sure that your ignition circuits do not exceed those ratings!

You don't want the activator switch for a push start. You would want the momentary. Activator switches are pressed for on and then pressed again for off. They stay in the on or off position until pressed again. Momentary switches are only active while depressed. Like turning the key to start the car then releasing once started.

You would need what is called a momentary switch. It only closes the circuit while the button is depressed and open when you release the button.Tthen it would have to go to a relay as this switch would not handle the current neeeded for a starter.

I don't see any reaso why that wouldn't be possible. They are independent circuits, though they do work together when using the remote start. But using the keyless entry should work fine as a standalone function apart from the remote start. IMHO though, if you're already that deep into the install, it would be better to wrap it up all at once as opposed to going back in later unless there are other circumstances to contend with. Hope this helps.

Yes, if your phone or the smart starter is not working, you may use a brick. That will get you in your car every time.

Yes. I use mine to turn on the parking lights/fog lights on whenever I hit the unlock button. You can either activate the timer either with a -or+ pulse depending in the alarm system.

Yes you can but BEWARE THERE IS A CHIP FOR THE CAR TO START I Broke mine and had to pay almost $300 for a new key all cause I wanted to change the black part of the key fob

This is not a remote starter. This is just the key fob to manually start your car and lock/unlock doors.

As long as you can get power to your dash, it will work. I've used it without starting my car.

Yes. You might not be able to drive it in, if you can push it in it might work for you.

I have not read the manual regarding this buy I would say yes. We have it installed in our car and it turns on every time the car is started.

It will work just fine. If you're asking how to actually use them on your car, just Google how to jump start a car. It's all the same, doesn't matter what the model of your car is.

Not if you must have momentary power. The buttons on the fob are "click on, click off", and if your rear shocks are like mine, you could get to much air, to fast.

Yes. I have mine in my center console and I never touch it. I just get into the car, turn it on, and it's connected. I don't even think there is a button to manually turn it on or off.

Yes you can; however you have to push the start button several times to get it to start and it sometime s stops halfway around the can. I recommend you look for a different one.

I never tried it that way. I just use it for a trickle charge on my wife's car if we are gone for a while. Sorry

It can be used for that if you keep the ignition switch in "acc" position. However, be careful not to let the + terminal disconnected under the hood touch ground because that will short out this battery connection that you've made.

yes it can, I set it up for my dad to do just that. The only problem (I wrote in another review) is the 911 button. If you push it 911 will come, ambulance and fire truck. My dad kept pushing the 911 button and had a lot of activity. Why would they put this button on a device meant for people that can't see well? I took the device apart and removed the button, taped of the hold. No more 911.

There is a sequence I recommend you find and use for this remote start when using on a manual. It is a safety feature to prevent the car from going through people's homes etc. The remote start will need to be in manual mode instead of automatic mode in order for this to work. Although a pain I did this bc I didn't want to hurt anyone or anything. You will have to hook the tach up & the door pins when the brain of the remote start is in manual mode also. Good luck, it's a nice remote start!
