Default Keyless entry problems

When I first got the SS the keyless entry/remote start worked like a charm. However, as soon as I installed the Diablosport Trinity it will only work within 4 or 5 feet. I remove trinity, it works fine at long distances again. Anybody having this problem as well? Thanks

The antenna on our windshield is for the oem keyless and tpm try extending the antenna with a piece of wire or mounting the trinty somewhere else just a thought that it is some how stopping the rf of the oem keyless

Had the same exact problem when I had my trinity as well. Thought it was just my luck but I never really figured out why the trinity did this. Just kind of lived with it. I let it sit on the dash all the way back in the corner. Maybe this caused the interference? However if I simply unplugged it from the OBD2 port everything would go back to normal even with the trinity sitting there still. I used to just live with it like that.

my only guess is trinity is somehow messing with the bcm in a weird way? the keyless remote is under remote control door lock receiver in the bcm on the tech 2. i doubt there is an interference honestly considering how many other frequencies are constantly generated by other parts of the car and accessories such as gps,phones etc.
