mostly self serve fixing them . id ask at a tint an alarm place
there is function to pair them again . have the remote tested if its putting out signal . point at a camera an watch . take it to autozone . listen to it on a radio close to it. you have 2 is the other working.
Try reprogramming the remotes: Turn ignition on, press and release programming/Valet button on antenna three times. You should here a short chirp, press the lock button on one remote. You should here a long chirp. Press the lock button on the other remote, you should here a long chirp. Turn ignition off. Test system.
That is your factory alarm. I will assume that this Prestige unit is a remote starter with keyless entry...and you are using the Prestige unit to unlock the doors. Apparently, the unlock wire is connected but, the factory disarm is not. You can turn off your factory alarm by unlocking the vehicle with the key.
You did not mention the year/make/model of your vehicle but, the issue appears to be the factory alarm. The installer failed to make the connection. If you intend to make the connection yourself I would need information pertaining to the vehicle. The (-) pulse before start wire for Prestige remote starters is black with a blue stripe. It is in a 4 pin connector at the module. This wire can be used to disarm the factory alarm before the remote start sequence.
Poor range can be caused by a number of things. Has this problem only been occurring recently? If yes, try replacing the battery in the remote transmitter since a weak battery can be a problem. If this is a new install, bring it back to the installer to have them check it. Other possible causes can be improperly positioned antenna, the alarm brain installed too close to an electronic control unit, the alarm brain mounted to a large ground plane or a defective alarm brain.
one purchasing the new remote audiovox will send you an instruction manual on the steps to programming the new transmitter. it is fairly easy, and they will give you the number to there tech department that if you have any trouble they will also walk you through it. hope this helps
