What is a comman?

Have you already driven it past the warranty limits?

Are you still in the warranty period ? If you don’t know your owners manual will show you that. From your poor posts I gather that your remote start does not work ( Have you tried both key fobs ? ) . Apparently the vehicle will start the normal way so you have 2 choices 1. Have it repaired 2. Just live without it .

Are you pushing and releasing the lock button, then immediately pushing and holding the start button for 4 seconds ?

I give up . This is just to unclear . Hugh , if this vehicle is still in the warranty period use it . Otherwise you may have to see a shop and pay for a diagnostic.

If it’s already running, why are you trying to start it?

If you have a check engine light or airbag light on or a faulty auto door lock, a few of the major manufacturers have a safety disable for remote start, Chrysler/dodge does for sure and so does Chevrolet, also if your battery is weak 2018 and up fords will sense the system voltage and put vehicle into deep sleep mode which also disables remote start
