Testing
Before putting back the vehicle together, it is recommended to check that the system operates properly. The following testing procedures should be used to verify proper installation and operation of the system. Before testing, make sure that all connections are soldered and that the unit is plugged in.
□ Make sure the system properly enters and exits ready mode:
Ready mode is a sequence of steps that must be followed in order to allow manual transmission vehicles to be remote started. To get in to ready mode:___________________________________________________________
1. Ensure that all the doors are closed and that the gear shift lever is in the NEUTRAL position.
2. With the engine already running, apply the parking brake and release the brake pedal.
Make sure to release the brake pedal.
3. Within 20 seconds, press LOCK, or UNLOCK.
The parking lights will flash 3 times quickly and remain lit.
4. Remove the key: the engine will go on running.
5. Exit the vehicle and close the door.
6. Press and hold either:
The system will exit ready mode if a door or the hood is opened, if the brake pedal is pressed, if the parking brake is disengaged or if the ignition key is turned to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position.
Remote-start the engine and listen for starter drag. If the starter cranks for too long, carry out another tach
programming procedure.
Hood switch shutdown. With the vehicle running under the remote car starter, open the hood; the vehicle
should shut down. If it does not shut down, check the hood pin-switch and its connector.
Brake shutdown circuit. With the vehicle running under the remote car starter, press and release the brake
pedal. The engine should shut down immediately. If the engine continues to run, check the brake switch connection.
Parking brake shutdown circuit. With the vehicle running under the system, disengage the parking brake. The
engine should shut down immediately. If the engine continues to run, check the parking brake switch connection.
OEM alarm control. Make sure the module is able to arm and disarm the oem alarm (if applicable).
Door pin shutdown circuit. Make sure the system exits ready mode when each door is opened while the
vehicle is running under a remote start. (Test each door.)
Door locks and trunk testing. Make sure each of these options respond to the transmitter (if installed).
Starter kill option. Sit inside the vehicle with all doors closed. Arm the vehicle, then try to start the engine with
the key. They engine should not start. If the engine starts, rewire the starter kill to reach proper operation.
Valet mode. Make sure the remote car starter is able to properly enter and exit valet mode. When setting the
remote car starter into valet mode, pressing the lock button will lock the doors without activating the starter kill. (Refer to the user guide for further information on valet mode.)
Idle mode. Make sure the vehicle properly enters and exits idle mode.
Most comebacks are the result of misunderstandings about how a product works or performs. Take the
time to properly explain all functions and features to the customers before they leave the premises. Doing this will save time and money.
a. LOCK to lock the doors arm the alarm and shut down the engine or enter turbo mode ; b. UNLOCK to unlock the doors and shut down the engine or enter turbo mode ; c. START/STOP to shut down the engine without affecting the doors.
Tach Programming
1. Flash the hood pin {see on page 1) — the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously—the parking lights will flash 4 times At that point, release the brake pedal.
3. Start up the engine and allow the vehicle to reach regular engine idle speed.
4. Once the engine is running idle, press the brake pedal and keep it down until you hear the parking lights output click 5 times.
5. Release the brake pedal —^the tach programming is now complete.
Horn Honk Timing
Follow these steps to program horn confirmation:
1. Ensure that the hood is up and that the ignition is off.
5. Hold the hood pin down for 4 seconds.
6. Release the hood pin. The parking lights will come on.
7. While the parking lights are on, immediately push and release the hood pin again—the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Press and hold the brake pedal, then simultaneously press the UNLOCK and START buttons — the horn will chirp 5 times.
3. Release the brake pedal.
4. To change the timing:
5. To save the new settings: press LOCK and UNLOCK. If 3 chirps are returned the new settings have been saved.
Supplementary Information Fifth Relay Output (2nd IGN, ACC or CRANK)
Caution!
Only one set of pins can be used at one time. Using more than one jumper may resuit in serious damage to the vehicle. The relay output rating on this unit is 25 a at most. Defective oem solenoid switches can sometimes draw up to 50 or 60 a, causing the 30 a fuse to blow. Always verify your circuit with an appropriate measuring device.
Tach jumper settings
Some new vehicles have a higher TACH voltage threshold, which would fall out of the normal TACH trigger circuit of the remote car starter. Changing the jumper to TACH Threshold HIGH will allow the module to properly detect the TACH signal.
a. To increase the Horn pulse by 3 ms, press the LOCK button. b. To decrease the pulse by 3 ms, press the UNLOCK button. c. To increase the pulse by 10 ms, press the START or STOP button. d. To decrease the pulse by 10 ms, press the TRUNK button.
Remote car starters of this series are equipped with an on-board high-current programmable 5th relay that can be used to power a second ignition, accessory or crank wire. The unit uses 3 sets of pins; each set corresponds to a specific function of the output. In order to activate one of the three possible functions, you must place the jumper (supplied) on one of the three sets of pins and connect the 14 AWG wire to the second IGN. / ACC. / CRANK wire of the vehicle.
