When I use the remote start the truck shuts off after 10-15 min, long before its even warmed up. Is this normal?

Yes the only way to keep it running is do another lock and press the start button twice. That will cycle it again... You can only do that once.

Its some sort of epa regulation from what I understand. Does such you have to baby sit it but 30 min should be plenty long

I wired up the high idle mod to work with the remote start and that helps it warm up quite a bit when it's cold.

I did one for 6.4s like three years ago. I think it's the same

12v to the pto wire set the park brake and it works. Harness is right under the steering column

Just search for high idle mod in the 6.7 threads. I had to wire an extra switch to get it to work with the remote start instead of wiring it to an upfitter switch.

Yeah good point because allot of the electronics don't work on remote start

Yeah I just tapped into the fuse I use on my Mini Max which is for the PCM so it is live with the remote start. I will say it works really nice on the cold mornings
