Startup light bar flicker

[8pack-27]

Anyone else notice the front grill light bar turn on then briefly kind of cut off and back on with remote startup after the engine is already running a couple seconds in?

Just wondering that’s normal or if I’m about to have some battery issues. I hadn’t really noticed it until today, usually starting the car from inside it.

I know there are two batteries, maybe it’s related to the switch over between sources on start?

I have not as I have not used the remote start yet but will check into it. Later RJD

Don't think it is anything to worry about. Only time it happens is when you use auto start. Mine did just a quick flicker and then gone. Later RJD

Sometimes you just want the car to be warmed up and cooled down when it’s like 80+ outside…. Y’all just like to hop in and sweat … it’s nearly July.

I auto-start mine almost all the time while I'm walking to the car. My neighbors probably think I'm showing off or something, but I just want to give the turbos some extra time to warm up and get some oil. Cooling off or warming up the interior is just a bonus

Yesterday was at Dodge dealer and as you drive up they have big glass plate windows, so now I can check the light bar to see what happens on start up. Yep no flicker. Later RJD
