Just purchased a new 2023 Timberline Expedition. WE have noticed that both fobs indicator light doesn't work. The fob appears to work for all functions but not the light. Is there something on the fob to change or in the vehicle settings? Would like to see on the fob that remote start did actually start the car. Does your 2023 fob have a working light?

I believe these use bidirectional communication for status etc, wonder if that was a super secret delete due to chip shortages or something, now maybe they are unidirectional, my '19 fobs do things like flash red when remote start won't activate, among other things.

For 2022 they remained bidirectional. Mine also flash green when remote start has activated, and blink red if not.

I have a 2023 Timberline 501A built and delivered in December of 2022 and the LED on the remote works when remote starting (feedback).

What causes remote-start to not work? I've never gotten it to work (recently purchased a 2022 stuck on the lot into 2023). All I've ever seen is the red flash.

Oh, you're saying auto-start stop also deletes remote start?
Auto start stop delete does not remove remote start. My 22 XLT has that delete option and remote start works.

When using the fob for locking and unlocking the doors, the fob light doesn't flash on mine. When you remote start it the fob light turns green.
