Lately I have been trouble starting. Its not all the time but once in a while I have to turn the ignition like 5 time before it will start. If i do remote start it starts right up. I check the battery and its fine. Could it be the battery inside of the key?

 

There isn't a battery in the key. Have you tried a different key?

 

theres a battery in my key, its a copy from home depot

 

i only have one key right now, original is in the truck for remote start

 

They probably have the original to tell the PATS that the right key is there. My guess then is that there's a wiring connection problem in that circuit. I have my original key in the ring that goes around the lock cylinder, (taken off and tied up under the steering column), and the keys I use are standard keys. It only had one key when I bought it and I didn't want to pay to have new ones programmed.
