Fortin Support International/Abroad - IE: Philippines

Question

Hello All, Admin, Fortin,

Hello im looking to bring Fortin remote starter abroad. Specifically in the Philiipines. I assume it would work the same for the same model cars here in Canada in example Toyota RAV4 Toyota Camry, Honda Civic Honda pilot Honda Accord, and any other same models. But how about the other models in the Philippines or in Asia.

 I also assume that car manufacturers like Toyota would have very much likely the same wiring, the same security and maybe the same everything with just a little bit difference in programming for different models.

there is a big market in the Philippines and all over Asia for a remote starters as well. They would like their AC is running in the hot weather just like here in Canada we want our heaters running during winter.

right now in the Philippines they are using this Remote starter named car professor, which I haven’t heard about before.

so yeah I’m looking to bring Fortin remote starters in the Philippines, and possibly some other Asian countries.

Let me know and thank you in advance,

Answer 1

Hello,

Sometimes the vehicles over seas are the same as their north american counter part, othertimes they are not.

Fortin does its testing based in Canada so I cannot confirm if the models are the same abroad as often times saftey regulations and laws result in differences in the vehicles sold in certain markets.

 

If you would like to attempt one you do so at your own risk as mentioned Fortin cannot guarentee they will be the same as vehicles sold here in Canada.

 

Best regards.

Okay okay. So Fortin only targets north America/ canada market only? No plans for future expansion to other continents?

anyway, could i just use for example an Evo-one or evo-all and programmed version os Generic. Just follow the diagram and connect to appropriate connections to a cars wiring( like lock to lock, ignition, starter etc. of course same polarity) would it work? And what programming procedure should i follow?

Sorry for all the questions. I just want it to work there. So far, Fortin brand is the easiest and straight forward brand remote starter i ever installed.

thanks again.
