NOTE 1:

 Once this feature is selected, one chirp is provided to indicate that the timer has started. You can set this anywhere

from one second to 4.25 minutes (255 seconds).  When the desired duration has been reached, press the blank side of the

PlainView 2 switch. The system responds with two chirps to confirm the new system timer duration.

n

NOTE 2: 

You must reprogram RPM’s after selecting gas or diesel in order for this setting to take effect.

n

NOTE 3:

 To program the Window RollUp feature, first roll down the windows using the switches located inside the vehicle. 

Next, access column 3, row 5.  The system responds with one chirp and then rolls the windows up automatically.  Wait 10

seconds, the system will provide a two-chirp confirmation and the programming is complete.

System Checklist & Troubleshooting

The fol low ing check list and trou ble shoot ing tips will as sure that you have in stalled the AvantGuard 4 cor rectly. If the sys tem does
not re act as noted, fol low the trou ble shoot ing tip(s) de noted with a black box be low that item, then re peat the step. Each suc ces sive
step re quires that the pre vious step has been com pleted as in di cated.

The Clifford Wizard simplifies the troubleshooting process by providing system diagnostic information in a graphical format. All
system settings are provided at-a-glance, and adjustments to the system settings can be made with a click of a mouse.  This reduces
the amount of time required for performing the following tests.

Step 1.

Re- enable the cour tesy lights.

In step 1 of the 

Important

 

Information

 

sec tion in this binder, the in te rior cour tesy lights were disabled. You must now re-enable

the courtesy lights by re placing the fuse you re moved or re set the cour tesy light switch back to its nor mal “DOOR” po si tion bef ore
pro ceed ing.

Step 2.

Test the Im mo bi li za tion and Wire less Im mo bi lizer cir cuits.

a. Arm the AvantGuard 4 (either from inside or outside the vehicle) and wait 10 seconds. Turn the ignition to the “ON” position. 

n

Engine does not respond. 

 This is the correct response, proceed to the Immobilization test.

n

Engine starts or cranks.  

The starter/ig ni tion/fuel pump or im mobilization cir cuits have been mis wired. Care fully re test the

ve hi cle wires as noted in the 

Starter and Ig ni tion Connections 

section

 

on page 10.  Be sure the ignition input/output is correct!

n

Engine still starts or cranks after retesting all the wiring as noted on page 10, check the power and ground connections.  Then

make sure the fuses are in the fuseholders, verify the control unit connectors are securely fastened, verify the ignition input

and output wires are connected to the true ignition line instead of a 12V or accessory line, and verify that the transmitters are

programmed correctly.

b. Test the wireless Immobilizer by disarming the AvantGuard 4, turning the ignition “ON” and cranking the engine. 

n

Engine starts and runs for up to one minute.  

This is the correct response, proceed to step 3. 

n

Engine starts, then stops running after several seconds. 

 The wireless Immobilizer needs to be synchronised.  If the system

does not disarm properly, refer to step 8.

o

Lo cate the Wire less Im mo bi lizer.

o

Press down firmly on the top of the Wireless Immobilizer and hold.  You should feel the top of the  enclosure move

inward slightly as you apply pressure.

o

while you are pressing the top of the Wireless Immobilizer enclosure, have someone start the engine. Release the top of

the immobilizer once the engine has successfully started.  

o

After 30 seconds have passed, turn OFF the engine.

n

Engine starts, then stops running after several seconds after all the above tests are performed.

  Test the wiring in/out and

ground.

Step 3.

Test the chirps.

Close all doors and arm the AvantGuard 4 by pressing button 1 on the remote control. 

n

2 Chirps: 

This is the correct response.  Proceed to step 4.

n

4 Chirps:

 If you hear 4 chirps ei ther im me di ate ly or 5-10 sec onds af ter the ini tial two chirps, a trig ger or sen sor is open or

 active, or the ve hi cle has de layed cour tesy lights and the De layed Cour tesy Lights fea ture  has not been programmed on. 

Dis arm with the re mote con trol, en ter the ve hi cle and turn on the ig ni tion. The LED will flash 1–10 times, pause, then re peat

the same number of flashes (the flash cy cle re peats five times for your con ven ience). Ref er to the following chart.
