SmartKey Starter® Remote / Auto Start, Alarm & High Idle for 2019-2026 Sprinter

Remote / Auto Start System with Alarm & High Idle

For 2019–2026 Mercedes & Freightliner Sprinter

Tired of stepping back into a cold van with a house battery that tapped out on you? This plug-and-play remote start system fixes that. If your house battery drops to a set voltage, the van kicks on and charges itself. Warm cabin, charged batteries, zero stress.

This is the world’s first fully plug & play Sprinter remote/auto starter with OEM-style high idle and alarm support. No dealer programming. No splicing. No guesswork. Just plug in, set your preferences, and head out.

Why This System Rocks

• Cold mornings solved: Auto start fires up your van when your house battery hits your set voltage.

• Heats or cools your cabin: Auto-activates heated seats, cooled seats, and rear defroster based on outside temp.

• Remote start with your factory key fob: Just press lock-unlock-lock and the party begins.

• OEM-style high idle: Built-in. Select your idle RPM right through the instrument cluster.

• Simple control: Pull the turn signal stalk to toggle high idle when the parking brake is on.

• OEM alarm included: No added modules needed. Add extra sensors if you want more coverage.

• Works with Drone & SmartStart: Get full phone control, alerts, and long-range signal.

• Anti-theft mode: Hit AUX1 in the app and the van shuts down safely at 0 MPH.

• Extra triggers available: Tie into battery monitors, compressors, temperature sensors, and more.

• Factory-safe install: Keeps your warranty intact. Install can take as little as 15 minutes.

• Easy menu setup: Adjust run time, temp thresholds, flash settings, and sensor sensitivity right from the steering wheel.

Sensor & Alarm Add-Ons

• Plugs right into Compustar DAS (shock, glass-break, tilt, movement)

• Works with full Compustar or Directed alarm systems

• Sends 2-way alerts through Drone or Viper SmartStart

Compatibility Notes

• Works with 2019–2026 Mercedes & Freightliner Sprinter

• If adding a full external Compustar alarm, the OEM fob may not remote start. Drone or an RF remote fixes that.

• Not compatible with AM remotes.
