If you trick the switch into thinking the pedal is depressed you can start the engine without actually physically depressing the clutch pedal. This is why he says you can't ever leave it in gear. If the car were in gear and remote start activated, the car would lurch forward and stall (or crash into your garage wall or the car in front of you or a curb ...  ). This is similar to the workaround available for the e-brake that will let you watch video on aftermarket HUs while the vehicle is in motion. |
You get a cookie.
To the guy who mentioned the neutral safety switch in his maxima, the 370z doesn't have one. If you really wanted I remote start in your manual Z, compustar makes some cool **** where it can actually be programmed to know not to start while in gear even when the car doesn't have a neutral safety switch
