On cars with airbags, you may notice bright yellow tubes
or harnesses marked SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) underneath the steering column area. DO NOT tamper
with these wires in any way, to prevent personal injury
and/or damage to the air bag system.
On GM rear-wheel drive vehicles built prior to 1995 and
Dodge Dakota trucks built prior to 1996, see the last page
of this instruction manual.
Battery gases are explosive.
Do not smoke while working near the car’s battery.
Note:
Some installers connect a battery charger to the vehicle’s
battery during installation. This is fine, but it must be removed before running the vehicle under remote starter control.
When running the wires through the car’s firewall, be sure
to protect them from sharp metal edges and from hot
surfaces on and around the engine.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before You Start
Take the time to read through the whole installation manual before
beginning.
Always leave a window open to avoid locking your keys in your car.
IMPORTANT:
After having read the entire manual, start the installation
by putting the yellow WARNING STICKER in the engine compartment.
Choose a surface that is clean and readily visible when the hood is
open.
This car is equipped with a remote control starting

device.
AVERTISSEMENT
POWER & IGNITION HARNESS
The remote starter module will be installed under the dash once all
wiring has been completed. Do not mount the module at this time!
You will need to check the red diagnostic LED light as the installation progresses. Locate (or drill) a hole in the firewall to run the
PURPLE and GREEN wires of the Control Harness and the PINK wire
of the
Power harness
short wires stay in the passenger area. Leave about a foot of the wire
harness under the dash for ease of working and visual access to the
diagnostic light.
The Installation Information section of our website
www.designtech-intl.com and www.directed.com are available
24 hours/day to provide you with free, up-to-date vehicle wiring
information for your particular vehicle after you log in.
Note: Always connect the
any of the other wires. Do not insert the fuse until step 11.
2. Black Wire (16 AWG) - Ground
Connect the BLACK
driver’s kick panel area. Use the small ring terminal. (The metal
bracing around or beneath the dash board is not always adequate.)
3. Pink Wire (12 AWG) - Power (+12 Volts)
Connect the ring terminal at the end of the short PINK
Volt terminal of the battery. Run the long pink wire through the
firewall of your vehicle. Join the remaining ends of the power wire
together by soldering them. Tape with electrical tape to leave no
v5.3 (2126)
into the engine compartment. The remaining
Pink
and
Black
wires before connecting
wire to a very good, clean chassis ground in the
wire to the +12
exposed wires. Alternatively, you may wish to use the yellow butt
connector, but we recommend soldering. Wait to insert the 30 amp
green fuse into the holder until step 11. As the power is first applied
to the unit the red diagnostic LED light will blink once.
Note: Failure to properly install the fuse holder and 30 amp fuse to
the pink wire to the battery voids all product warranties.
Ignition Key Diagram for Steps 4-7
The vehicle’s wires are found coming off of
the key switch. Remove the panel under the
steering column to access these wires.
4. Blue Wire (14 AWG) - Ignition 1
Connect the BLUE wire to the ignition 1 wire of your vehicle. This wire
will measure +12 Volts on the test meter in the “run” and
position, and is off in the “lock/off” and “accessory” position.
5. Green (14 AWG) - Ignition 2
Connect the GREEN wire to the Ignition 2 wire in the vehicle. The
Ignition 2 can function in serveral different ways in your vehicle. It is
important to understand how it works. The Ignition 2 will usually mea-
sure +12 Volts in the “run” position and is off (ground) in the “lock/
off” and “accessory” position. In certain vehicles, it may also show
+12 Volts in the “Start” position or Ignition 2 may turn OFF during
“Crank” and turn back ON after the starter disengages. Carefully note
the function of the Ignition 2 wire. If the Ignition 2 turns OFF during
“Crank,” see Changing Ignition 2 Function in section 21. If Ignition 2
stays ON during “Crank,” no options need to be changed.
6. White Wire (14 AWG) - Accessory
Connect the WHITE wire to the accessory wire which is +12 Volts in
the “run” and “accessory” position, but off in the “start” and “off”
positions. In GM vehicles, connect the white wire to the (usually orange) wire that is hot in “run” only.
7. Yellow (14 AWG) – Starter
Connect the
YELLOW wire to the starter wire. This wire will measure
+12 Volts on the test meter in the “start” position only.
Note: Most Nissan vehicles have two starter wires. Connect both
starter wires of the vehicle to the
YELLOW start wire of the remote
starter.
8. Plug-In On/0ff Switch
Connection of the ON/OFF control switch is mandatory. Do not let the
switch wires touch ground. Mount the control switch so that it is
easily accessible and so that the “ON” position is facing upward.
Make sure there is enough clearance behind the mounted switch for
the wire connections. Use a 1/4" drill-bit for the mounting hole. Plug
the switch connector into the module just to the right of the power
wires. Turn the switch on.
CONTROL HARNESS
(ALL WIRES ARE THE SMALLER 18 AWG SIZE)
9. Purple Wire - Hood Pin Switch - Control Harness
The hood pin switch MUST be installed with
the remote starter. It prevents operation of
the remote starter when the hood is open
and is used to initialize the unit. Connect
the PURPLE wire to the hood pin switch using the red connector.
you may share the wiring – but be sure to diode isolate each wire
going to the hood pin switch with the bands of diodes pointing
towards the pin switch as shown.
10. Orange Wire - Brake Shut-off - Control Harness
Connect the ORANGE wire to the brake wire which receives +12 Volts
when the brake pedal is depressed. This wire must be connected. It
arms a critical safety feature which disables the remote starter when
the brake pedal is depressed.
Note:
In some cars, the ignition must be in the “on” position to test
the power in the brake wire.
Note:
If the Ignition 1 & Ignition 2 wires come on whenever the brake is
depressed and the hood is open this just means you need to initialize
the unit in Step 11.
11. Initializing the Remote Starter
BEFORE UNIT WILL DO ANYTHING FOR THE FIRST TIME, YOU MUST
INITIALIZE THE REMOTE STARTER
A. Insert the fuse into the pink fuse holder on the pink power wire.
B. Turn the control switch on.
C. The remote starter requires the installer to open the hood and
then press and hold the brake pedal. Note: The ignition/dash lights
will come on if the unit is not initialized.
D. While depressing the brake (with the engine off and the hood
open) turn the ignition key to the “RUN” (not “start”) position.
E.Put the car in “DRIVE” from the “PARK” position.
F.Put the car back in “PARK” and release the brake.
G. Turn the key off and remove the key.
Note:
Confirm initialization by turning the ON/OFF control switch “OFF”
and then “ON”. The red LED light on the remote start module will
flash once immediately as the switch is flipped from the “OFF” to the
“ON” position.
If the unit is not initialized then the dash lights will come on (the
remote starter powers up the ignition wires) when the brake is depressed or the hood is open, and the control/valet switch is on. REPEAT STEPS A THROUGH G. See the colored Trouble Shooting Sheets
if necessary.
12. Green Wire - Tach Input - Control Harness
The remote starter has two ways of monitoring the car during the
starting process. Both ways will ensure a clean, accurate start. Read
about both methods before deciding which one to use. Normally you
should try the “No Tach™”
method first.
“No Tach™” Starting
This starting method does not require the connection of the GREEN
tach wire. This method will start the car by reading the car’s voltage
before attempting to start, and then looking for a voltage increase
when the alternator kicks in. This feature automatically takes into
account voltage, temperature, and the time since the vehicle was last
””
”
””
run. The “No-Tach™
starting is preset at the factory and you can
skip step 12A if you would like to use it. Note that if the vehicle is
hard to start, set option 3 (Setting Program Features section (step
20)) for “extended crank.”
Tachometer sensing
If the vehicle is generally hard to start (i.e. requiring a cranking time
of more than 1 second) you will get more accurate starting with the
tachometer sensing starting method. This method starts the car by
reading the engine speed (tach) information from a wire under the
hood. If you choose tachometer sensing, connect the GREEN (18
awg) wire to the car’s tach wire under the hood (normally the negative side of the coil or tach output of coil pack). After you have
connected the GREEN wire, you need to teach the remote starter the
vehicle’s tach rate at idle. Proceed to step 12A.
Note:
You must have already initialized the remote starter in Step 11.
12A. Tach Rate Learning
Note:
Only use if the tachometer sensing method is chosen.
A. Connect the GREEN wire to the car’s tach wire under the hood.
B. Turn the On/Off control switch to the “OFF” position. Wait 5 sec-
onds for the red LED light flashes to stop.
C. Program the unit to the tach mode by pushing the White “op-
tion” button once and watching the red LED light flash. Now
push the middle button on the transmitter for a second until you
see the red LED light flash again. You are now in TACH mode. (If
the LED light flashed twice or sometimes three times – simply
push the transmitter button again until you get only one flash).
D. Wait 5 seconds for the red LED light to flash 3 times.
E.Turn the On/Off control switch back to the “ON” position
F.Start the car with the key and let it get to a
normal
idle. Do not
press on the gas pedal.
G. Push the red “code learn” button for a second.
H. Watch the red LED light. It will come on after 3 or 4 seconds,
indicating that the idle rate has been learned.
I.Watch the LED light stay on steady as the vehicle is running and
goes off as you rev the rpms above twice the idle rate. The LED
light must go out when you rev it above twice the idle rate to
confirm correct tach learning.
J.Turn the key to the “Lock/Off” position. You are now finished.
K. Turn the On/Off control switch off and the red LED light will go
out.
Note:
Once these steps are complete – you cannot use the red LED
light to confirm the tach idle rate again. You can however repeat the
above steps to learn tach over again at any time.
OPTIONAL STEPS
13. Yellow Wire - Headlights/Parking Lights - Control Harness
Connection of the YELLOW wire allows you to activate the low beam
headlights or parking lights to show the vehicle has remotely started.
After the remote starter has started the car, the lights will remain on
until the remote starter shuts off after 10 minutes, or when the brake
pedal is pushed, or when vehicle car is put into gear.
+12 Volts output. Connect the
YELLOW wire to the wire that has
power when the lights are on. You do not need to add a relay unless
your vehicle has a negative lighting system.
14. Blue - Horn/Siren - Single Small Blue Wire
The BLUE wire, which is optional, signals the horn to honk once each time
the remote starter starts the vehicle. Connect the blue wire to the factory
horn wire, which is often found running down the steering column. It will
normally show +12 Volts at rest and the voltage will disappear when the
horn is honked. This is a 400 mA transistor ground output. If your vehicle's
horn requires a positive input, you will need a relay.
15. Brown/White - Alarm Disable - Control Harness
The BROWN/WHITE wire, which is optional, is Alarm Disable, which
will give out a quick negative pulse just before starting the vehicle. This wire can be used to turn off the factory alarm system in
vehicles which have them. In most vehicles, this wire is located in
the driver’s kick panel. A relay is needed for vehicles which require a
positive pulse.
The WHITE/BLACK
ground output that acts just like
the Ignition 1 or Ignition 2 relay
outputs (active in the “run” and
“crank” positions). This wire is
a 400 mA negative transistor output and MUST be set up to power
a relay
(not included). It can be used to power the third ignition wire

This is the wire that can also be used to bypass a passive anti-theft
system by hooking it up to the Universal Alarm Bypass Module. See
the Factory Anti-Theft Systems section at the end of the instructions.
REQUIRED FINAL STEPS
You must have hooked up all required wires and completed Initialization (Step 11) to proceed forward.
17. Trying the Unit Out
WARNING: Be prepared to apply the brake during this testing.
A. Close the hood and fully apply the emergency brake
B. Place the vehicle in Park.
C. Turn the On/Off switch off then on – the red LED light will flash
once.
D. Once all the wiring is checked and is correct, press the Start
button on the transmitter.
E.The car should start and continue to run for ten minutes. Make
sure that the engine shuts down if the car is taken out of park,
the hood is opened, the brake is pressed or the transmitter button is pushed again. If the car does not start, see the Code Learning section under Special Cases.
18. The Antenna
Feed the antenna around under the dash and up the inside of the right
or left windshield post and over the top of the windshield. Clean the
windshield with the provided alcohol pad for maximum adhesion.
Let the windshield dry for a minute. Peel the liner off the back of the
adhesive tape and mount the antenna behind the rear view mirror.
The more exposed the antenna is, the better the range performance.
Now plug the end of the antenna into the remote starter module. In
most vehicles you will get better range performance if the antenna is
pointing vertically downward from the top of the windshield.
The wiring section of the installation is now complete. Be sure to cap
all unused wires so as to prevent short circuits, and mount the
module securely under the dash. When tying up and mounting the
unit, be sure to avoid any moving parts (steering column, pedals)
and sharp edges.
19. Trouble Shooting with the Self Diagnostics
The remote starter contains a built in diagnostic routine that will
indicate why the unit started or why the unit turned off the car the last
time that the unit was used.
To activate the diagnostic mode for why it turned off, simply turn the
On/Off control switch to the “OFF” position. In a few seconds, the red
LED light on the module will flash 1 to 12 times to identify the problem. See the chart below for an explanation of the flashes:
1 flash10/15 minute time out. Unit should be fine. Make sure
the transmitter is working properly.
2 flashesUnit turned off because Brake or Hood was activated.
Check to make sure the hood pin switch is depressed
when the hood is closed and the correct brake wire is
hooked up.
3 flashesNo Tach or Stalled. Review Step 12 and make sure the no
tach feature or the tach wire (if used) is programmed
correctly.
4 flashesReceived another remote input from the transmitter
5 flashesTransmission was shifted into gear. Move the In-Gear
switch inside the receiver module to the OFF position
(see diagram below for location of In-Gear switch).
6 flashesLow battery voltage, or may be missing an ignition wire
which powers up the alternator
8 flashesOver current - One of the 400 mA (-) transistor outputs
(alarm disable, Ignition 3 or horn) of the control harness
are driving too much current. Make sure to use a relay
where necessary.
12 flashes The Control Switch was turned off while the car starter
was running.
20. Setting Program Features:
The remote starter unit has many special features available. You will
not need to use these special features in most situations. The factory
settings will operate most vehicles. You must turn the On/Off controlswitch to the “OFF” position to program any features. Note that when
turning off this control switch, the red LED light will flash a few
times, giving the diagnostic code described in Section 19. Wait a few
seconds for it to finish before programming your new Options.

This option cancels the “enable” mode safety feature. The “enable”
mode requires that the driver toggle the ON/OFF control swith “OFF”
then “ON” each time the driver removes the key from the ignition in
order to “enable” the vehicle for remote starter control. This feature
guards against undesired starting of the vehicle by remote control.
You must keep this option as enable on all GM rear-wheel drive and
Dodge Dakota vehicles manufactured prior to 1996.
Option #8
NormalDaytime Running Lights
This option will turn the headlights on about 10 seconds after it sees
the key in the ignition position – and turn the headlights off when
the key is removed from the ignition. You must hook up the lights
wire in step 13 for the Daytime Running Lights option.
Programming An Option:
If you want the factory setting, DO NOTHING and skip this section. If
you want to change one or more of the features, TURN THE ON/OFF
CONTROL SWITCH TO THE “OFF” POSITION. Wait for the red LED
light to stop flashing, then continue with the following procedures:
A.For options 1-8: Push the white code button on the remote start
module. Each time you push the button the red LED light will
flash 1 to 8 times signifying at which feature you are (press it
once, the red LED light flashes once. Press it again and it will
flash twice. Press it again and it will flash three times, etc., to
show what feature you are at).
B.When you are at the feature level you desire, push the start
button on the transmitter for 1 second and the red LED light will
flash once to signify you are at the Option setting. You can push
the transmitter button again and it will flash twice to signify you
are at the Factory setting. Push the transmitter button again and
you will go back to the Option setting (1 flash).
C.You can choose to change another feature by starting over again
at Step A. or, in six seconds, the remote starter automatically
exits the programming mode (Three red LED light flashes).
D.When finished – switch the Control Switch back ON. The red
LED light will flash once.
21. Changing Ignition 2 Function
Many vehicles turn off the Ignition 2 wire while the starter is cranking. In these vehicles it is very important to have the remote starter
copy the starting sequence of the key exactly; otherwise the vehicle's
computer may show a fault code. Our vehicle wiring database on our
website will help you determine the correct IGN 2 wire for your vehicle.
To turn the thick GREEN Ignition 2 wire off during crank:
1.Unplug all wires and connections from the remote start module.
2.Open the case of the remote start receiver module.
3.Look for the small IGN2 switch as shown in the following dia-
gram.
4.Move the IGN2 switch to the OFF position.
5.Close the case and plug in all of the wire connectors.
The remote starter will turn off Ignition 2 while the starter is cranking.
Many of the optional steps require a relay to be hooked up. The most
common relay used for this type application is the Bosch type relay
(Radio Shack Cat.# 275-226). Use the diagram shown for a typical hookup.
If you have another relay then you need to know that pins 85 and 86 in
this diagram relate to the coils of the relay. Pin 30 is the ‘common’, and
pin 87 is the ‘normally open’ contact. If your relay has a pin 87A in the
middle it is the normally closed contact and is not used. (The diagram is
typical for alarm disable, horn, or Ignition 3 applications). Relays with
only four terminals, such as RS-275-226 will NOT work for reverse polarity door locks or starter kill.

2) Code Learning
Your transmitter is factory coded to the remote starter module with
over 16,000,000 different codes. The remote starter module can
learn the codes of up to 4 different transmitters. If you want to add
additional transmitters to the receiver or if it does not respond to
your transmitter - follow the steps below to teach the receiver the
transmitter code(s):
A.Turn the Control Switch ON.

3) Factory Anti-Theft Systems
Many vehicles come with an anti-theft system that must be tempo-
rarily bypassed for the vehicle to be remotely started. Some systems
use a resistor in the key. Others use a transponder- a small device in
the key that communicates a high security code to the vehicle before
the vehicle will successfully start.
Check the list of vehicles and the types of security systems on the
following page. If your vehicle is listed, your vehicle has an AntiTheft System that the remote starter MUST temporarily bypass in
order to start the vehicle. More information about the factory antitheft systems and vehicle wire colors can be found at the DesignTech
website www.designtech-intl.com.
The Universal Alarm Bypass Module, sold under model #s 20402 or
29402 will temporarily bypass the factory anti-theft systems when
using the remote starter. Vehicle-specific anti-theft bypass modules
and door lock modules are also available. Check with your local retailer/installer to purchase the Universal Alarm Bypass Module or
contact Directed Electronics at 1-800-876-0800.

NOTICE to Installers of Remote Vehicle Starters
We DO NOT recommend installing ANY remote
starter in the following vehicles:
Audi 1998+, BMW 1998+, Jaguar 1998+, Land
Rover 1998+, Mercedes 1998+, Range Rover
1998+, Volvo 1999+
As with any aftermarket installation, please research and learn
as much as you can about the vehicle before you start the
install.
All General Motors (GM) rear wheel drive vehicles
built prior to 1995 with automatic transmissions
and all Dodge Dakota trucks with automatic
transmissions built prior to 1996 have a
MECHANICAL type of NEUTRAL SAFETY
SWITCH. All vehicles built after 1996 use an
electrical type of neutral safety switch.
Applying +12 volts to the starter wire on any vehicle vehicle
using a mechanical neutral safety s witch will engage the vehicle’s
starter, regardless of the shifter’s position. When the shifter is
in Park or Neutral, the v ehicle will just start up normally . If the
vehicle is accidentally left in gear and power is applied to the
start wire, such as by a remote starter, the vehicle will lurch
forward or back as it attempts to start.
To test if your GM or Dodge vehicle is using a mechanical
neutral safety switch system, you will only be able to remove
the key from the ignition switch when the shifter is in the
Park or Neutral position.
To prevent this problem from occurring when installing a
DesignTech remote starter on a GM rear wheel drive vehicle
or Dodge Dakota built prior to 1996:
1. You must not program out the Enable Feature (option
#7). This is a saf ety feature that requires the user to turn
the control switch OFF and then ON again each time
they exit the vehicle in order for the unit to be operational.
This feature will ensure that the user of the vehicle with
the remote starter installed has made a conscious
decision to allow the remote starter to start the vehicle
the next time the transmitter button is depressed.
2. You must use the rela y drawing below to create a circuit
that will prevent the remote starter on these GM and
Dodge vehicles from starting the vehicle unless the key
is completely removed from the ignition switch.
As with any aftermarket installation, please research and
learn as much as you can about the vehicle before y ou start
the install. Instructions, technical tips and detailed wiring
information is available on www.designtech-intl.com.
Please refer to the information on the website bef ore starting

Safety Notices:
1. When taking your car in for any service or repairs, disable the remote starter by
Trouble-Shooting Guide
Unit won’t respond
What is the Diagnostic
Code, and how do I
get it?
Diagnostic Code 1 flash The unit may not have attempted to start the vehicle yet or the unit may have started and timed out.
Diagnostic Code 2 flashes The unit thinks the hood is open. Make sure the hood pin-switch is properly adjusted and installed.
Diagnostic Code 3 flashes If the unit is programmed for tach, the tach wire is not connected or the tach rate may not yet have been learned.
Diagnostic Code 4 flashes Make sure the remote input wire (usually red/white) is not touching anything. (This wire is not on all models). If you
Diagnostic Code 5 flashes This code means the unit thought the transmission was shifted into gear.
Diagnostic Code 6 flashes Code 6 is caused by the unit not seeing the battery voltage increase enough when the vehicle starts. It can also be
Diagnostic Code 7 flashes An alarm sensor was triggered, causing the vehicle to shut down. (Only applies to units that have alarm features).
Diagnostic Code 8 flashes Something in the control harness is not connected properly. One of the transistor outputs is driving too much current.
Diagnostic Code 9 flashes Applicable only to manual transmission units. Indicates the unit did not see the emergency brake.
Diagnostic Code 10/11 flashes These are not a valid codes.
Diagnostic Code 12 flashes Make sure you have an accurate code. Please see ‘What is the Diagnostic Code, and how do I get it?’ at the top of
Make sure unit has power and ground.
Make sure unit is initialized (See ‘Initializing the unit’ in the manual)
Re-program transmitter. (See ‘Code Learning’ under Special Cases in the manual).
Check Diagnostic Code as described in Trouble Shooting with Self Diagnostics in the manual.
The Self-Diagnostics built into every DesignTech brand remote start will help identify problems in both the unit and
your installation. To get an accurate diagnostic code, flip the toggle switch off and back on; the LED light (on
module) should flash once if the unit is initialized. Press the start button on your transmitter for second. Now allow
the unit to try and start your vehicle 1-3 times. (Note that the unit will attempt to start the vehicle up to 3 times unless
codes 2,5,7 or 8 are being triggered, when it will try and start the vehicle once). Allow it up to a minute to try to start
again on its own - Don’t do ANYTHING to the unit during this time, unless something goes obviously wrong. At the
end of the starting cycles, turn the toggle off and count the first series of flashes- this will be the diagnostic code.
Is the toggle switch upside down? When the switch is turned on the LED will flash once immediately.
Something might be causing the unit to reset, such as a poor connection to ground or power, or you may have a relay
wired improperly. Typically the wires in the control harness require a relay unless otherwise stated.
The transmitter may need to be programmed.
The unit thinks the brake is being depressed. Make sure the brake wire has 12 volts on it only when the brake is
depressed. There should be no voltage on the brake wire at any other time
You might be experiencing feedback if you have connected the parking or head-lights. If disconnecting the lights
wire allows the unit to start then you might power the headlights, or you can isolate the brake wire of the unit from
the vehicle with a relay.
If the unit is programmed for ‘No-Tach’ the vehicle may not have all the required ignition wires connected, or may be
equipped with a factory security system – thus causing it to stall.
Sometimes a unit may have an option programmed even though you did not specifically set that option. Try re-setting
the unit. Unplug everything from the module except the black ground wire and LED (if you have a plug-in LED).
While pressing the white button on the module, connect the power lead. The LED on the unit should turn on and stay
on. Release the white push button and the LED should remain illuminated. (If not, repeat the process being sure to
hold in the white button while connecting power.) Now remove power and wait 2 minutes. Then connect the power
without pushing any buttons. Re-Initialize the unit and it should work for you.
have a stick shift unit – this is not relevant to you.
You might be pressing the remote control again before the unit has completed its cycle(s)---See 'Diagnostics: What is
the Diagnostic code and how do I get it?’ – at the top of this page.
If installing a manual transmission unit, this code means the unit did not see the door pin-switch.
If the transmission was not shifted: Switch the “in-gear” switch inside the module to the off position. This disables
‘Transmission in Gear’ sensing, and should solve the problem.
caused if you are not bypassing the factory theft system, such as PATS, VATS, or similar, if equipped.
Double-check the ignition wiring against the vehicle-wiring guide. Your vehicle may require ignition 2, or in some
cases ignition 3, in order to allow the alternator to function – thus bringing up the voltage.
If the wiring is correct, and you are properly bypassing any security system the vehicle may be equipped with, then
connecting the unit into tach mode should solve the problem. (Your alternator may not be functioning properly).
There may be a wire connected without a required relay, or if you are using a relay, the relay may not be connected
properly.
this page. If you still get code 12, one of the toggle switch wires may have touched ground, possibly damaging the
unit. Or maybe the switch was just turned off while it was running. Or maybe a defective switch?
Initialization - What is
it?
Initialization - What if
the unit will not
initialize?
I have a GM Truck and
the “Check Engine”
light is on after remote
starting. What should I
do?
The vehicle cranks but
fails to actually start
My 3 button remote
control will lock the
doors but will not unlock
them.
My 5 button remote will
not control lock/unlock
individually.
Initialization is a process which proves to the unit that you have connected the required safety features and that the
unit has been installed in an automatic vehicle. See “Initializing the Remote Starter” in the manual.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INITIALIZE or INSTALL ANY AUTOMATIC UNIT ON ANY MANUAL
TRANSMISSION VEHICLE! Attempting to force an automatic unit to function on a manual stick-shift
vehicle could result in serious property damage or personal injury!
Is the unit already initialized? Make sure the switch is not upside down. Toggle the switch off and then
back to on. As the switch is turned on, the LED light on the unit (or that plugs into the unit) will flash
once if the unit is initialized.
One of the ignition wires may have voltage on it. Make sure all ignition wires measure a “dead” 0 volts
when the key is “off.” (It is normal to measure a small amount of voltage from the unit’s start wire.)
Check that there is 12 volts on the orange wire in the control harness only when the brake is pressed.
Check that there is continuity to ground on the purple wire in the control harness only when the hood is
open.
(A good way to test both the hood and brake at the same time is to connect a test light – the kind with a real light bulb
– with one lead to the orange wire and the other lead from the test light connected to the purple wire. If you open the
hood and press the brake, the light will illuminate if both connections are correct.)
You may have the wrong start wire. Make sure the yellow start wire from the unit is connected to a wire
in the vehicle which shows 12 volts only when the key is in the start (cranking) position. The wire should
have power at no other time.
Did you mistakenly switch the “in-gear” switch inside the module? If so, the unit will not initialize. This
switch disables transmission in-gear sensing, and should only be switched if you have been instructed by
a technician to do so or you are getting a diagnostic code of 5 flashes.
Your vehicle may not have a neutral safety switch, such as pre 95 GM rear-wheel drive vehicles or Dodge
Dakotas built prior to 1996. Try this: Open the hood and place your foot on the brake. Start the vehicle
with the key. Turn the engine off and release the brake. If all of your connections are correct the unit
should be initialized at this point.
Try bypassing the toggle switch temporarily in case a wire or connection to it is broken. Just unplug the
switch and jump across the two pins on the module that the switch plugs into with any metal object. As
you jump (short) the two pins together the LED should flash if the unit is initialized. NOTE- DO NOT
short any toggle switch wire to ground or probe the connector with a test light. Doing so may damage the
unit.
You most likely have one of the ignition wires connected wrong. Make sure you have connected:
From Unit to Vehicle_______________________________
Ign1 (Blue) PINK (hot in run and start)
Ign2 (Green) WHITE or PINK/WHITE (hot in run and start)
ACC(White) ORANGE (hot in run only)
If you have the ignition wires connected as above and still have a check engine light it is possible the unit
has been programmed to have ignition 2 “off during crank.” Please review the programming options
within the installation manual.
Please see “What is the diagnostic code and how do I get it?” Follow the steps for the diagnostic code
you receive. You are probably missing one of your second or third ignition wires. Or if it is a Nissan –
you probably have 2 starter wires which need to be shorted together.
Re-program the transmitter. Use the left button when teaching 3 button remote controls. When
programming the 5 button remote, use the start button. (Refer to the installation manual for the complete
steps on how to make the unit enter the code learning process.)
The vehicle runs – but
without the heater or airconditioner.
I have poor range.
My vehicle has Passlock
I or II and I cannot get a
resistance reading.
Can I use the
DesignTech Transmitter
with other brands of
products?
The LED on the unit
flashes constantly
The LED remains
illuminated at all times
The starter stays
engaged for 6 seconds.
How will I know if I
need a relay?
You are missing the 2nd (or 3rd) ignition wire or the accessory wire is not hooked up. Make sure the heater or airconditioner is left on when you leave the vehicle. On diesel vehicles – they may not come on for a few minutes until
after the vehicle is up and running.
The antenna coax wire may be crimped, cut or otherwise damaged. Try the antenna both vertically and horizontally
to determine the best performance. Make sure the receiver unit has a good chassis ground. Note that the higher you
hold the transmitter off the ground when pushing the button – the further distance you will get from the system.
Many meters have a known issue with measuring passlock. This is not a fault of the meter, the installer, or
the manufacturer. These issues can cause problems such as getting a consistent reading of the resistance,
or the reading may be artificially inflated. It is our belief that the mid-to-high-end meters seem to
experience more problems measuring passlock than less expensive digital meters.
One wire will have 0 volts - This is the wire you "tap" into-- we’ll call this WIRE #1 USUALLY BLACK
OR ORANGE/BLACK. One wire will have 5 volts or less- This is the wire you cut in half-- we'll call this
WIRE #2 USUALLY YELLOW. One wire will have aproximately 12 volts - This is the wire you leave
alone USUALLY WHITE OR BLACK/WHITE. With all PASSLOCK wires intact, turn the vehicle on
and bump the starter. Measure the voltage between the wire #1 and wire#2. Your meter should be set on
the 12 volt DC scale. RECORD THIS VOLTAGE. Without turning the key off - go ahead and separate
WIRE #2. Reconnect the Universal Alarm Bypass Module (Part #20402 or 29402) as described in the
installation manual with one exception - GROUND the wire that goes to the ignition 3 wire; you should
hear the bypass module click. Now measure the voltage between the ENGINE side of WIRE #2 and wire
#1. Your meter should be set on the 12 volt DC scale. Adjust the dip-switches and trim-pot on the bypass
module until the voltage being measured EXACTLY matches the recorded voltage obtained without the
module. Remove ground from the ignition 3 wire of the bypass module, turn the vehicle off and then
restart it. Look at the voltage again - and while monitoring it ground the ignition 3 wire of the bypass
again. If the module is set correctly the voltage should NOT change. Repeat again to verify - if you get
the same voltage every time then the module is set up perfectly. There is no chart to help you with this, it
is just trial and error -- but it will work regardless of the meter you are using.
NO. Due to proprietary technology DesignTech brand products will operate only with DesignTech brand
Transmitters. Likewise, a DesignTech transmitter will not operate another brand’s products.
The alarm within the unit, if equipped (as are most units with 3 or 5 button remotes) may be armed, or the
unit may be in valet mode.
Make sure the wires going to the toggle switch are not broken, and that the toggle switch is on.
Reset the unit - See “Resetting all options to the factory setting” in the instructions
It is normal for the LED to glow dimly. This indicates the unit is receiving power.
If the LED is at full brightness then one of the push-buttons may have been depressed when you applied
power, the LED may be plugged into the wrong jack, or something may be wrong within the unit.
If the unit is in tach mode – make sure the tach wire is properly connected and receiving the correct tach
rate.
If using the “No-Tach” method, make sure the unit is not programmed for tach mode, extended crank, or
super crank.
Make sure you have the correct start wire connected - the start wire in the vehicle should have 12 volts
only when the key is in the start position.
Some vehicles such as Toyotas and Nissans, experience a starter feedback problem. Try temporarily
isolating the start wire from the key switch to identify this problem - simply cut the start wire in half
between the connecting point of the units start wire and the key switch. Get Installation Note #133 from
off our web-site or Fax On Demand.
If the output is labeled as a “+12 relay output” the unit contains a relay on that output - and you will only
need to use a relay if the vehicle requires a negative output.
If the output is labeled a “400ma Transistor Ground Output”, this means the unit supplies a ground up to a
maximum of 400ma. If more than 400ma is drawn through the output, the unit may shut down or it may
be damaged. Generally speaking, if the vehicle requires a ground and the unit supplies a ground you will
not need a relay. If the vehicle requires a positive and the unit supplies a ground, you will need to use a
relay. Likewise, if the vehicle requires a ground capable of more than 400ma you would need to use a
relay. See Installation Note 111, Basic Uses of the Relay from our web site or our Fax On Demand.

This condition is perfectly normal. This is a safety feature designed to prevent unauthorized starting. If
you have forgotten to flip the switch off and back on, you can still remote start the vehicle. Just hold the
start button down for 6 to 10 seconds instead of the usual 1 second. If you do not like this safety feature, it
can be permanently bypassed by programming option 7, explained under "Setting Programming Features"
or a similar section within the installation instructions.
The remote input wire available on some units (usually a red/white) may be connected to ground. The
remote input wire should be taped up if not being used so that it does not touch ground.

Some General Comments:
• For Your Safety, never install an automatic unit into a manual transmission (stick-shift) vehicle! Serious
property damage or personal injury including death may occur! Instead, use one of our special manual
transmission units, which will operate safely in a manual transmission vehicle.
• When testing wires use only a digital multimeter, unless otherwise instructed. A test light (especially the
kind with a real light bulb) can severely damage electrical components in modern vehicles if used
improperly. Also, “computer safe” LED type test lights - with a red and/or green LED- are NOT airbag
safe! NEVER test ANY wire within an airbag system harness.
• Always roll down at least one window in the vehicle before beginning work. This will prevent you from being
accidentally locked out of the vehicle.
• It’s okay to have a battery charger on the battery while you are working on the vehicle, but the car starter will
not function correctly with the charger attached.
• Specific vehicle information is available directly from www.designtech-intl.com
colors in the wiring guide "matching up" then you may be in the wrong harness. You can make sure you are in
the correct harness by unplugging the wires. For example: With the ignition switch, if you unplug it and then
the vehicle no longer cranks, the blower and radio do not work, and the vehicle is for all purposes "dead" with
the key- then you have found the “ignition switch harness.” (Otherwise, you will need to continue searching...)
The same technique can be used for the brake, lights, horn, etc. Once you are sure you are in the correct
harness, if the wire colors still fail to match up then you will have to test the wires using a digital multimeter. It
is always best to verify any wire before connecting to it.
• Most of the common questions that people ask are actually answered within the installation manual. Make sure
you have thoroughly reviewed it before calling for technical support. We recommend going through the
installation manual with two different colored markers. Read through each step and check it off after you have
read it. Use the second marker to make a check when you have completed the step in the vehicle. This will help
to make sure you have completed all steps, and that you have not missed any features the unit offers.
