I got the Mopar one installed after , but there is a button on my key, has x2 on it. I press that twice and it starts. also, make sure your doors are locked first.

I'm not sure how it works on the JK, but if it has a x2 on it, hit the lock button, then the remote start button twice and hold it the second time, should do the trick!

Is it factory installed? If so, directions are in your Owner's Manual.

Yep...just hit the button twice. Then horn beeps twice and jeep starts. If you start hittin buttons all crazy ya hafta manually start then cut it off. That kinda resets the alarm. It will auto cut off after 15min. Or you can cut it off by hittin the button again.

you can disable the horn honk on locking function (how to is in the manual) and then you get marker light flashes upon locking and double flash before remote starting.

You just push the upper button on your keybob two times quickly, and the engine starts and keeps the doors locked for a maximum of 15 minutes, then it will shut itself off again.
