Sorry to anyone who was about to go to bed....Also I'll be away next week so I might not get part 2 out until sometime next weekend, plus I needed to order a $40 dongle to flash a firmware update on to the remote start.. what a crock of shite.. #shouldhavegottenaviper

[@deanaragon3263]

Is there another way to contact you besides Instagram? I have Tahoe questions

[@louiepalomares9263]

Have you thought about changing the door handles to black ones ?

[@mikebrazelton8618]

I have a 2004 tahoe, which compustar kit number is that

[@acanfield87]

Realize this is an old post, but based on your hashtag above do you recommend Viper remote start for our GMT800s?

[@jrvasquez5623]

Yes tahiti is back i missed her

[@v8foraheart884]

Frickin finally an up to date video of a remote start for this era of Tahoe

[@arianmartinez5529]

FINALLYYYYYY LOVE THE TAHOE VIDEOS MAN

[@raserx63]

I just recently bought an 05’ Z71 . I’m doing a lot of the same tinkering and cleaning now. I had to address the suspension first , shocks , bushings , upper control arms. Easy trucks to work on for the most part....except for the seized upper control arm bolts😡. Definitely got some ideas from this series 👍

[@rockman12345100]

I have an 05 chevy colorado i want to do the same on. Just wondering if you had any luck with this?

[@vamoneygroup]

I spent 5 hours on an upper arm. 4 hours trying to get it out of the knuckle.

[@codyleger2944]

Love the tahoe content have a 2001 myself!

[@danieldoernen9983]

Doing that myself would definitely be my nightmare. Respect, Matt!

[@BobPegram]

Shrink tubing, you need that or the insulating tape that melts into itself. That means you slide the tube on one side and shrink it with heat when you've finished soldering. No wrapping with electrical tape, it always comes off. Wire nuts are for in house wiring only.

[@lsxmatt]

I have some but I didn’t cut the wire so I couldn’t slip it over. I put alottt of layers of tape.

[@Ryan_1997]

Harness on eBay is no longer available

[@kingluisescareno6386]

I got a question did you make the heater and ac start on with the remote also?

[@jimmyc7803]

have a Tahoe myself. Loving the vids. from new springville, hope to run into you one day and say hello.

[@64bit72]

Install the 07 column shifter on your Tahoe :)

[@MiguelGarcia-nl3ci]

Great idea😁

[@rdelacruz1987]

@@MiguelGarcia-nl3ci What does that do other than aesthetics ?

[@excelle]

I have a 06 Tahoe. Great video Matt. Didn't know this was even available for us DIY guys!

[@nikogto]

Matt, first off, love all the vids. I have a 2005 Z71 Suburban I'm slowly making the way I want. Just got the same brand of remote start system, but model #CS7900AS today for Christmas. I REALLY don't want to wire up more than the remote start system. Can't find any installation instructions anywhere. Do you know if I can use my factory key fib to start? Or should I go ahead and get the same one you got as an upgrade? If I need the upgraded one, does or how does it get programmed to the compustar module? Thanks for any help, and Merry Christmas!!!

[@jordangrey8626]

YES!!!!! some Tahiti content!!

[@Chevyshow]

Is there a video of you installing this on the camaro?? That’s the reason for me coming here 😅

[@Legendary_Frank]

The auto start I bought has a purple wire that has to go onto the obd purple wire but when it’s in my obd port doesn’t work what do I do

[@ashleigh253720]

I have a 04 tahoe that I bought a keyless remote for. It goes into programming mode but once I click the unlock and lock buttons together ( supposed to wait 15 seconds I've waited a full minute) it never programs. What am i doing wrong?

[@GTOproject]

Your passenger door module could be faulty. The one on my truck is and I’m having the same issue haha.

[@lord-REDACTED-]

Here for team Tahoe!

[@413pl3]

Can you add a shock/impact sensor to that kit?

[@morenoangel633]

Finally the Tahoe is back!!! 💯💯

[@patrikwesterberg1306]

what was the name of the remote starter you put in your Tahoe and what is the name of the website. Patrick

[@lsxmatt]

Its a Compustar, I got it from bestbuy.

[@isaacocasio3165]

Can you post a link of the tester you’re using? Great video btw!!

[@KhaiMahase]

ill probably go the t tap way just because if i cut the wire by accident i may not give a good connection back somehow. I think use t taps is fine, its way quicker as well. I wanted to solder but i dont wanna mess anything up. Great video tho! I will be doing all of the wiring for our dodge, I just will use t taps no the solder. I got the cm-dc3 as well

[@Shaggy050]

Omg finally tahoe stuff

[@KhaiMahase]

Great video. When you mentioned that harness for the parking lights, you were talking about door locks. I wanna program an aftermarket compustar remote to open and lock. I paid for that so I might as well use it lol. Not sure how I connect it tho. Diagram doesn’t say.

[@odarriusnailer4196]

Are you able to use your boost auto parts key fob for the remote start ?

[@lsxmatt]

Yea, you just need to press lock 3 times and it starts

[@413pl3]

Has anyone installed this kit on a 1999-2002 Chevy GMC Truck or SUV? Did you also add the shock/impact sensor?

[@tennesseetreasures124]

pretty sure I saw that Camaro at Battle in Bama a few weeks ago.....I tried to catch up but had a hard time😂

[@haydenreyes4621]

So is this gonna work with your boost auto parts key fob?

[@lsxmatt]

Its suppose to but we’ll find out.

[@godbluffvdgg]

Thanks so much for the upload...This really helped me........................................To know to hire a pro for my silverado...:)...

[@kylewelch9488]

How did you get the Compustar firmware I called compustar they said only dealers have the firmware to make the remote start work?

[@jesus_0395]

Tahoe vids 4 life

[@jonnonyas2691]

To much BLAH BLAH BLAH get to the point already....Sheezzzzzz

[@mason2me]

Huge props to you for the camera work. I've spent some time in that little torture chamber, and visualizing anything under that dash is near impossible, let alone getting a decent camera angle.

[@jessieszostak843]

So I have a question I’m about to install one and I would like to use the remote that The remote start system came with so what I need to wire up the powered luck to the remote start or can I just wire it the same way you did and program the remote to my truck?

[@ClutchReboot]

Hey man I seen you swapped your key fob to the new/updated style. I was wondering, can you use your remote start on it ? My remote has a star button to remote start but I didn’t see any type of button on the new remote. Thanks!

[@davidhardy2678]

You don't have to solder those connections bro, just do a military splice and wrap, zip tie, and tape.. much easier and time saving.

[@dutch971]

Where’s the TSBs and wiring diagrams form BBB Industies gone? How can we get them again? Anyone?

[@Pancone19]

Well done man!

[@kcroc44]

Hey brother Matt, by chance can you explain the wiring diagram for the relay to add 2nd acc

[@shawnhughes615]

Miles on no check codes at all just exterior problems what’s your thoughts

[@johnathonpereida]

Would this system work in a 2002 suburban??

[@lorenwitham7627]

Not one single comment about locks which is the hardest part. You must plan on having 2 remotes or had someone else do it for you...

[@Hotrodclint]

Go watch part 2

[@ericmoore7445]

I just got one of these hope it will work on 2000 dodge durango.

Been looking an hour + for THIS video! thanks!

How did u change the steering wheel to a modern one?

Do you have electrical issues with your Tahoe??

[@joshuavera4547]

I kinda want to get a Tahoe now.. thanks alot 😅

[@_jasonseverson]

Hey man great video! I just bought a 2010 Tahoe but the fact that it was once a government vehicle (boarder patrol) it doesn’t include the remote to start. Would you say this was worth the buy?

[@_jasonseverson]

I live in AZ right now and a remote start would be ideal with this 115 degree weather!

If I lost my car remote can I get one replaced

Is it with it for me to continue to put $ into my 02 Yukon I bought for 1500 it now has 200000

[@drupeydrupez]

If you’ve kept up with maintenance you still got a good 100,000 left, besides even when you reach that much buying another motor is cheaper then buying a new car and you get to keep your upgrades 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@msia40004]

I have a 2006 suburban i recently bought with 204,00 miles on her and even though shes stock and lags a bit to go into reverse.. i know i know the trans is on its last legs i feel any way... im keeping her and modding the f out of her beacuse i love her. If the engine or trans do go out at some point ill replace those being that it will be much cheaper than buying a new car. I love my suburban.

[@lsxmatt]

I have 224,000 on mine. Imo if its clean and theres no rust go for it. I’ll change and engine or do anything mechanical over any kind of body work. Especially having to deal with rust!

[@juaniequintero3528]

Would this work on a 06?

[@David_Bellows]

Should be plug and play for that one

[@raptor0356]

Hey man! Don’t know if you will see this, but I just got the DC3 module installed on my Silverado with the same Hardware harness, and everytime it remote starts it shows the emergency brake light, and says service brake system. The emergency brake isn’t engaged, and after driving maybe an quarter of a mile it goes away and only returns when remote started! Wondering if you experienced this! And if you know a fix also I told the compustar pro dealer and they looked at it and looked at me with confusion, and said they didn’t know.

[@lsxmatt]

Did you tap into the correct wire for the brake pedal shutdown? Does it actually turn the truck off when you press the brake without the key in it?

[@raptor0356]

The compustar dealer installed the remote starter I should’ve said that so I’m guessing they installed it right, and I did tell them before I left and they had someone look at it and they said they didn’t know what is causing it they checked the wires. this is the first time I have ever seen that message pop up on instrument cluster. But yes to answer your question the truck does shut off when pressing the brake with no key! I may just have look for myself when I get the chance and see if they tapped into correct wire.
