Quick Installation Guide 

5.

 

When programming the first transmitter, the parking lights will flash 5 times quickly then give 2 slow 
flashes. 

6.

 

Upon the first successful remote start (once the yellow loop has been cut), the system will lock the 
transmission settings to automatic mode. 

Note:

 If upon pressing the 

START

 button the parking lights give 3 slow flashes, make sure that the Orange 

handbrake  wire  is  not  connected,  the  hand  brake  is  not  engaged  and  that  the  yellow  loop  is  cut  and 
isolated/taped. 

DIESEL VEHICLE WARNING:

 The G-Plug wire must not be connected when the brake is detected through 

D2D. 

PUSH-TO-START 

Disabled by default, PTS mode is a special feature that is intended to facilitate the remote starter installation on 
most Push-To-Start vehicles. With PTS mode enabled, the remote starter will offer the installer a negative start 
output (to pulse the vehicle’s PTS switch), as well as a (+) brake switch output (no external relay necessary). 
With PTS enabled, the White/Green wire on the 12-pin harness becomes your negative (-) PTS switch output. It 
will give a one second output intended to pulse the PTS switch. Also, the Purple crank output becomes your 
brake switch output (this will turn the brake circuit 

ON

 for crank). 

PTS TAKEOVER

 

Without the PTS takeover, pressing the brake pedal after remote starting shuts down the engine (to prevent 
theft). Here are the new steps for this new Takeover mode: 

Regular PTS takeover from Remote start: 

1.

 

Remote start the engine. 

2.

 

Press 

 and enter the vehicle. 

3.

 

Within the pre-programmed time limit (1.5 min or 3 min, see Mode 4), press the brake pedal. 

PTS takeover from Idle mode: 

1.

 

With the engine running, press 

 or 

 to engage Idle mode. 

2.

 

Exit the vehicle; engine runs without the key. 

3.

 

IMPORTANT: After exiting the vehicle, press 

.

 

4.

 

Press 

 and enter the vehicle. 

5.

 

Within the pre-programmed time limit (1.5 min or 3 min, see Mode 4), press the brake pedal. 

HYBRID OPTION 

Warning: For automatic transmissions only. 

This option is disabled by default. It can be enabled in Mode 3 of the programming options. 
HYBRID mode is a special feature that is intended to facilitate the remote starter installation on most Hybrid 
vehicles. With HYBRID mode enabled, the remote starter will give a 4-second crank output on its crank wire (It 
will not rely on VTS to stop the crank cycle). The only way to shorten the 4-second crank output is to program a 
tach signal to the remote starter.  If a tach signal is programmed, the remote starter will act like normal (the 
HYBRID feature should be used when no tach reference is available from the vehicle or the bypass being used 
at the time of installation).
