3800 Remote Start Stopped Working

[sr71_rgl]

I had a new motor swapped in a couple months ago and the remote start worked right after the install but recently it won't work. I did replace the coil paks/ICM 2 weeks ago to clear DTC P1351 (didnt clear the code) and had the battery disconnected for about 20 mins which coincidentally is when I decided to check the remote start. I replaced the battery in the starter fob (I use 2 fobs, 1 for start and one for entry/locks) the led on the fob lights when I push the button but still the car won't start. When it was working right the car would acknowledge the remote start function was engaged by flashing the rear lights, the fuel pump would prime and the car would crank/start. Now, the car won't even acknowledge the remote start has been engaged. Do I need to re-learn the fobs or something?

check your rpm wire and also check to make sure your hood switch is working properly. Also fuses
