Removing a remote car is not so hard anyone with a basic understanding of automotive wiring. When installing a remote starter, it makes various connections to the car’s electrical system. This requires some knowledge and lots of testing to verify proper connections. I will give you the best techniques that how you remove remote car starter easily.

For removing your remote safely you need this equipment:

Wire cutters, Electrical tape, and basic hand tools (for removing interior panels)

Follow these steps:

First Step: Locate the remote starter. Usually, you can find it under the driver’s side of the dash near the steering column, kick panel or firewall. In a typical installation, I use nylon wire ties to attach a remote starter wiring to the factory wire harnesses. Use the wire cutters to remove these.

Second Step: Disconnect the wire harnesses from the remote starter module. After disconnecting the harnesses, remove the module and set aside. The unit may be reinstalled into a different vehicle.

Third Step: Follow the wiring from the connector to the car’s wiring harness and cut the connection as close to the factory wiring as possible. Be careful not to cut the factory wires, but just the aftermarket ones. Use electrical tape to wrap the connection. Be sure to cover any exposed metal left at the junction.

Fourth Step: Examine the starter wire. Many remote starters manufacture equip their units with a function called ‘Anti-grind’. I installed if, it is possible that it cut the starter wire during the original installation and will need to be reconnected. If this is the case, solder the two ends of the severed wire together and use electrical tape to seal the connection. Disconnect the remote start tachometer wire. I commonly find this attached to the vehicle’s fuel injector wiring. Seal this connection with electrical tape.

Final verdict: Removal of a remote car starter is not a big deal if you are a newbie, and if you can follow my process you should fix it perfectly.Hope you follow the procedure and solve this issue.Thanks in advance.
