Resetting the module to default features
Resetting the module is not a required process. Most of the time, you can avoid resetting the
module by fixing the issue directly at the root of the cause.
To reset the module:
1. Enter programming mode.
2. In 10 seconds or less, press the brake pedal 6 times.
3. The parking lights will flash 8 times, confirming the reset.
On some vehicles such as BMWs and certain Volkswagens, pressing the brake pedal without the
key in the ignition
ON position will not work. If this is the case, simply leave the ignition ON while
performing the reset.
Closing Up
• Use tie-wraps or screws to properly secure the starter module and keep the wiring away from
any moving parts such as the parking brakes or steering column shafts. Mount all switches in
good and accessible locations where they do not risk getting kicked or hit accidentally.
• 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.
• Always make all your connections before plugging in the module, and be sure to test all
functions properly before closing up the installation.
• Show the customer where the optional valet switch has been installed and place the warning
label in a visible location under the hood.
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.
If installed on a MANUAL transmission, make sure the system properly enters and
exits ready mode (see earlier in this Guide).
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.
Brakes 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 brakes switch connection.
OEM alarm control. Make sure the module is able to arm and disarm the oem alarm (if
applicable).
Door locks and trunk testing. Make sure each of these options respond to the
transmitter (if installed).
