Symptom
Probable Solution
LED 4 is not lit
1. This indicates that the BLACK and RED lines going to the Front End Reader may
be shorted or the Front End is drawing too much current.
2. Disconnect the Front End Reader and see if LED 4 turns on. If LED 4 does not
illuminate there may be a problem on your Max 3 Module.

keypad for each module outside of program mode. Once completed the bi-color and yellow LEDs alternate followed by 3 beeps, then
the red LED turns on solid again.
