Progress on Luxlink: The Test

This...right here. Everyone new to the LuxLink needs to read what Solman said.
When I drive my car exclusively, the LuxLink works flawlessly...literally every...single...time.
Then, my wife will borrow the car for something. Next time I go to get in it, the LuxLink won't work.
Because she feels the need to open the door...take a breath...find her purse...find her cell phone...put her cell phone in her purse...take another breath...shut off the car and take the keys out...put the keys in her purse...get out of the car...close the door...realize the keys are in her purse...dig through her purse to find the keys...take the keys out...lock the door.
Women.

Habious....
Hard to live with them, but can't really enjoy life without them.
John,
Thanks for your patience, clarifications, and most of all talking Steve into another LL production run. While LL is definitely a "finicky" device, with a little practice and your excellent tutelage, mine is working as represented.
I think I may have one more small expense to support my LL... I'm going to get some new remote key batteries for my two keys. With all the practice and amazement watching and showing off the new functionality, I think I've drained them. Or it might just be because they're more than 10 years old.

Or is there a sequence you have to do to get it working again?

That is crazy!!! I always pull the key out first before doing anything but that's good to know.

No other sequence! In case you never noticed, if you open the door before you turn off the key/remove it, your headlights will NOT turn off if you have them set to auto-off. LL works the same way. As soon as you turn off the SC correctly everything works right-Door never opens until the key is OUT of the ignition. I find it interesting that periodically my lights did NOT turn off automatically and finally I found out from Steve why. Tricky, complicated cars we got here!

Today I went 3 for 3 on the remote start/top down and also 2 for 2 on the remote start + door unlock. Yes!!! I think the key is to have a fast thumb finger with the right timing.

Took my car in yesterday for the install. It took them 6 hours for the LuxLink and the back window mod.
I like the remote start and roof up/down, but I realllllly like the back window mods.
Everything works as advertised. I am a happy man

Thanks, so when they did your install, did they have to add a SW to the hood? I really should be reading your posted DIY a lot better to check if there was a mention.
