Programming Tach Rate:
NOTE: All applications require that tach be programmed.
The unit will not operate unless tach is programmed. If an attempt is made to start the vehicle
via the remote start without first programming tach, the unit will flash the parking lights 7 times
indicating tach has not been learned and stored. If the tach rate is not properly programmed to
the specific vehicle, the unit may not realize that the vehicle is running in certain instances
reengage the starter motor.
The Remote Start Unit will learn the tach rate of most vehicle's single coil, multiple coil packs, or
single injector. To learn tach:
1. Turn the ignition key to the On position.
2. Press and release the valet/program push button switch 3 times.
3. Immediately turn the ignition key Off.
4. Press and hold the valet/program push button switch, then start the vehicle using the
key.
5. When the unit senses the tach signal, the parking lights will begin to flash.
6. Release the valet/program push-button switch. The parking lights will turn on for three
seconds to indicate that the learned tach signal is stored and the unit is out of the tach
learn mode.
NOTE:
If the unit fails to learn tach rate due to an improper tachometer connection or a poor tach
source, the parking lights will not flash. To correct this situation, locate and connect the
Green/Orange wire to the proper tach signal, and then repeat the tach learn routine.
Diagnostics:
Enter Bank 3 and turn on selectable feature # 7 as described in the feature selection and
setting section.
NOTE:
Diagnostic mode is a temporary mode. Once you have accessed the diagnostic mode,
the unit will pause for two seconds then begin to flash the last stored shut down code. This
code will be displayed three times in succession, then the unit will automatically exit the
diagnostic mode.
The parking lights will flash a number of times indicating the reason for the last remote start
shutdown. The light flash indications are as follows:
1 Flash
Run timer expired
2 Flashes
Low or no tach signal (RPM)
3 Flashes
Positive inhibit wire activation
5 Flashes
RF shutdown, Remote signal received, or manual start trigger wire reacti-
vated.
6 Flashes
High tach signal (RPM)
7 Flashes
Tach signal has not been learned
8 Flashes
Negative inhibit wire activation
START PROGRAM:
The Remote Start unit has the ability to start the vehicle automatically at timed intervals. This
feature is useful in extremely cold climates where starting the engine is the only means to keep
the battery charged and fluids warm. The operator has the option to have the unit start every 2
or 4 hours for a maximum of 48 hours. Factory preset is to start at 4 hour intervals. To select 2
or 4 hour automatic start timer:
1. Start with the Enable switch (Red Handle) in the "On" Position.
2. Turn the ignition on then off.
