If the battery in your 2017 Acura MDX needs to be replaced, the remote start feature may not work. Simply take off the plastic cover of the key fob, remove the 3-volt battery, and insert a new one of the same voltage. An additional reason for the remote start not functioning correctly could be the vehicle's system detecting that certain components needed to start the engine are not working properly. For the remote start to engage, make sure the car is in park and that all doors, hood, and trunk are closed. If the car's battery is low or the "check engine" light is on, the system will be disabled. Issues such as low fuel levels or leaving the vehicle unlocked can also prevent the remote start from working.

    Hey, to use the remote start feature: First, press the lock button and look for the green LED indicator to appear. Once you see the indicator, press the remote start button for 2 seconds and wait for the green light to come on.
