"Glow plug" figured prominently in those threads I read about remote
start not working. It might be worth a shot. Does it run a little
rough for a minute on a regular start? I don't know a lot about
diesels but I am guessing if a glow plug was not working, it would
miss a bit until it started "dieseling"
It may just be a loose connection I guess.


Oh, and charging the batteries didn't change any of the readings. Looks like I've got an ABS problem
and a glow plug problem.


10 things to check:
Improper Starting Procedure
Vehicle Not in ?Park?
Too Many Remote Start Attempts
Coolant and Oil Pressure
Unlatched Hood
Hazard Warning Lights
The Key is in the Car
Check Engine Light
Dead Keyfob Battery
Check the Manual-

Regarding # 4 in your list:

For what it's worth my remote start will only work twice (two, 10 min.
cycles). A third attempt to remote start won't work until the key is
inserted and turned to "on" or after the truck has been started normally
using the key. After that the remote will work again for another 2
cycles. However, John has said that his remote will initially start
his truck but then it dies after a few seconds. That's not normal.

Mine will remote start (using my second key/FOB) if the other key/FOB
set is in the truck but not inserted in the ignition. I can also remote
start it using the GMC app that's in my smartphone. If I try doing that
with the key in the ignition, but in the "off" position, the app on the
smartphone comes back with a message saying, "Cannot start, key in
ignition".

How does your smart app on your phone talk to your track? Does your truck have a SIM card with service, or does it link via bluetooth or WiFi?

Logic tells me that 4 or 8 could be the only things on that list
that could cause shutdown after start.

Something to try. When working, mine will remote start, run for ten minutes then stop. Then I can
remote start again, just as you can.

However, and you might check this with yours, at any time during the first running period, I can do
the remote start sequence again and get an additional ten minutes added to the time. That does count
as the second remote start, but it doesn't use the battery to do it.

Did all of that.

Here's the latest:

Disconnected the pos lead to battery. Waited a minute and reconnected. Got same readings from
scanner, with an additional ABS reading.
