Honestly can't remember if my sync 2 did but don't think so. I have a aftermarket radio and want to have it power up with remote start. Right now I have to get in and press engine button to get full accessory power and turn radio on.

I got a 17' w/out push button and when I auto start, the radio does not turn on. I would also like to know if there is a way to turn it on.

must be something with that generation of trucks, or maybe the remote starter itself. on my '13 it works like you want it to.

Did anyone come up with a solution for this? I put a linkswell gen4 in my truck and would love to have it boot up on remote start with the factory remote start.

the accessory turn on is controlled by the canbus. U could run it to the fusebox instead. Find one that has power when you remote start

Did you ever get your radio to come on with remote start? I am looking to do the same thing and cant find much on how to do it.
