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.
The 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.
