    GM Remote Start AP8 option how to?

    hey guys, want to buy a few of this accessories, but have no idea if they will work on the hybrid trucks.

    I have a few Hybrid Tahoe s, and they come from factory with the remote starter.

    Does anyone knows what I need for making this installation, and what will be the procedure?

    Thanks in advance for any help

    That hard huh?

    Let's refrase it....

    I have on the glove box the AP8 wich means is remote starter prep.

    Part number 17801236 states that comes with 2 controls, a CD with instructions and a CODE !

    Now, every dealer here has no clue about the system install and is a NO NO for any help.

    Since I know I'll have to reprogram the BCM with a VCI code......question is :

    Does the code that comes in the kit is the VCI?

    I have the tech 2 and the USB new thingy.....will that allow me to reprogram the truck?

    Please guys, chime in !

    lo-lyf is how he spells it IIRC. I don't think he's done a STOCK style remote setup though. I do know he has done some Viper type systems, as have I. I don't know anything about the stock setup unfortunately.

    If you have a tech2 and it's updated, and you have access to TIS and you can connect to the modules, you can reprogram and relearn anything.
