'13+ Ram 1500 Classic & '13-'18 Ram HD Factory OEM Mopar Remote Start Upgrade

Say goodbye to freezing winter mornings and sweltering summer days. This exclusive factory OEM Mopar 4th Gen Ram 1500 & HD remote start upgrade from Infotainment.com lets you start your 2013-2024 Ram 1500 Classic (2015 currently out of stock) from the comfort of your home or office. Simply press a button on your key fob, and your truck will be ready at the perfect temperature when you're ready to go.

This genuine Mopar remote start system integrates seamlessly with your truck's electronic security key, ensuring top-notch security while delivering unmatched convenience.

Intelligent Climate Control with Your Ram Remote Start

The Ram 1500 Classic & Ram HD remote start system is smart enough to automatically activate your climate control, heated/ventilated seats, and heated steering wheel based on the weather. Enjoy a perfectly comfortable cabin whether it’s freezing or scorching outside. With a range of at least 300 ft (91 m), you’ll have the flexibility to start your truck from wherever you are.

For added safety, features such as the power sunroof and windows remain disabled during a remote start event until you press the START/STOP button or the brake pedal.

This complete kit includes everything you need to activate the remote start feature in your Ram 1500 truck:

  • Security gateway module bypass
  • OBD Genie C-XBM programmer to enable the "XBM: Remote Start" option code

Important: You'll need to call a locksmith (most convenient option) or visit a Ram dealer to program the replacement RF hub and the two (2) new keys included in this kit.
