1. A remote start system of a work machine, the work machine comprising an engine, the remote start system comprising:
a communication device configured to receive a remote start signal from a remote device, the communication device outputting a wake signal upon receiving the remote start signal;
an engine starter subsystem configured to initiate an engine start;
a first fluid pressure sensor for sensing a first fluid pressure on a first work machine subsystem;
a second fluid pressure sensor for sensing a second fluid pressure on a second work machine subsystem; and
a controller having a non-transitory computer readable medium with a program instruction to remotely start the work machine, the program instructions when executed causing a processor of the controller to:
receive the wake signal;
once the wake signal is received, confirm a lock status of a safety lock of the work machine, to initiate the engine start;
output an engine start signal to the engine starter subsystem upon confirming the lock status;
receive a first fluid pressure signal from the first fluid pressure sensor and a second fluid pressure signal from the second fluid pressure sensor after the engine start; and
output an engine stop signal if one of the first fluid pressure signal is below a first predetermined threshold and the second fluid pressure signal is below a second predetermined threshold after a specified timeframe.
