2way remote feedback on second remote operation

0 votes

I have a Kia Sportage LX 2011.

I have 2 remote fobs, one 2way and one 1way. 

The 2way remote used to update the status on lcd based on the operation using the other fob, or even the car original fob. For example when I used the other fob to lock/unlock, or to start the engine, the 2way fob was updated to show the new status.

But after a service by the installer, I had to re-pair the remotes with car, after which the 2way remote does not receive the updates from car when I use the 2nd remote or the original remote fob.

Any idea on how to make it receive the updates/feedback from car again?

 

Thanks.

What brand/model is that?

It is a Compustar CM7200 unit, with the 2way remote model 2W705R.

As a side note, before the recent change that made it not to update the status, it used to have some delay to update the status. For example after locking the car it took about a few seconds to show the locked status on remote. But now the status is updated immediately after the command is sent to the car.
You will want to contact the manufactuerer of the remote starter, Compustar, or the shop that has installed the product.
