Changing the Remote Transmitter Battery
The 12-volt alkaline battery supplied in your remote transmitter should last approximately
one year, depending on usage. When the battery begins to weaken, you will notice a
decrease in range, or the distance from your vehicle that your remote transmitter will
operate. Follow the instructions below to change the remote transmitter battery.
1. Remove the screw (if equipped) on the back of your remote
transmitter.
2. Use a small coin or screwdriver to pry off the back of the
transmitter case.
3. Replace the worn battery with a new battery.
4. Replace the case backing and test. It is not necessary to
reprogram the remote transmitter after changing the battery.
Adding Remote Transmitters to Your System
Note: Each CSM-3 module has four “slots”, or memory locations, to store remote
transmitter codes, giving it the ability to operate from up to four remote transmitters.
For proper operation, a transmitter code must be stored into each memory slot.
When using less than four remote transmitters, follow the suggested programming
parameters:
• One Remote Transmitter - Program four (4) times
• Two Remote Transmitters - Program each transmitter two (2) times
• Three Remote Transmitters - Program one transmitter twice, and each
remaining transmitter once.
1. Press and hold the brake pedal. Turn the ignition on and off three (3) times, then
release the brake pedal.
If done correctly, the unit will respond by flashing the parking lights three (3) times.
(From inside the vehicle, you will hear three (3) ‘clicks’ from the module.) This
indicates that the unit has entered the programming mode.
2a. Without pressing the brake pedal, press the LOCK button (button 1) on the remote
transmitter to be programmed.
The parking lights will flash once (one click from the module), indicating that the
system has “learned” that remote transmitter.
2b. Repeat step 2a for any additional transmitters or transmitter codes.
3. Press and release the brake pedal to exit the programming mode. Test all remote
transmitters to ensure that they work properly.
