Just got my new 09 3500. Unloaded it of the transporter tuesday night with 53 miles on it. Started it with the remote start today and it started fine. Then the horn beeped 3 times and the engine shut down. Started it with the key and the orange CEL light was on. Drove it about 11 miles and seems to run fine. But light still on and still beeps horn and shuts off if using remote start. Any sugestions or just take it to the dealer? :banghead:

Might have triggered a CEL from low voltage. With the CEL or code the remote start won't really work. It might start for 5-10 sec then it will shut off or not start at all. Like was previously said, take it to the dealer.

Low voltage is a good posibility. I noticed that it cranked a little slow. If it was low voltage, will the cel reset itself?

It might reset eventually, but on a brand spankin new truck I would let the dealership deal with it. Might be as simple as a bad connection but again make THEM fix it.
