TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

See page 19 for testing tips.

SITUATION

Poor transmitter range.

Transmitter LED doesn’t flash when button pushed.

Transmitter not work when siren sounding.

Alarm not respond to pressing transmitter button.
Under passive arming (switch sensing), siren does

not chirp when the last door/hood/trunk is closed.

Under passive arming (current sensing), siren does not

chirp when the last door/hood/trunk is closed.
Not all doors trigger the alarm.

Too many false alarms.

When alarm triggered, pressing transmitter shuts

siren and lights OFF, but alarm stays armed.
More than one chirp when arming (active mode).
Siren does not chirp.
Siren chirps or LED flashes while driving.
Siren continually emits a strange quiet sound.

Cut main power wire (red wire), and alarm looses

power.
Testing of hardwired zone, on-board or auxiliary

sensor, or current sensor does not trigger alarm.
Engine does not start and LED is steady on after

car has sat for some time with alarm disarmed.

SOLUTION

Replace the battery.

Mount alarm brain in another location.

Fold or roll up (do not cut) alarm brain antenna.
Make sure battery contact with clip is tight and clean.

Replace the battery.

Replace the transmitter.
Increase the distance between siren and alarm brain, and

make sure the two are not grounded together.
Re-code the transmitter.
Check blue or blue/white wire (depending on which switch) at

brain with VOM.  If ground when door or hood or trunk

open, and not when closed, then problem with wire harness or

brain.  Otherwise, check switch, wire, or connection.
Remind your customer about the feature, or program it off.

Connect trigger wire to under-dash courtesy lights, or

connect individual pin switches to each door.
Reduce shock/glass-break sensor sensitivity, and double-

check all door and hood/trunk pin switches.
This is a feature of the alarm, and not a problem.

Check all openings to see which is not closed properly.
Reprogram to restore chirp.
Check the connection.
Check the alarm brain ground for good contact, and make

sure it is not grounded together with siren.
Connect these two wires to separate sources of +12VDC.

(Feature not available for (-) parking light systems).
Wait 4 sec. (hardwired triggers) or 10 sec. (current sense)

after arming before testing.
Remind your customer how Automatic Starter Disable

works, or program it off.

POSSIBLE PROBLEM

1. Low or dead transmitter battery.

2. Metal of car body reflecting RF waves.

3. RF interference.
1. Loose battery connection.

2. Low or dead transmitter battery.

3. Defective transmitter.
Alarm brain too close to siren.

Transmitter not matched to alarm.
Door/hood/trunk pin switch not connected, or

broken, or its height is not adjusted properly.

Not a problem — With current sensing, alarm can

only detect open doors, not closed doors.
Door switches are isolated by diodes.

Shock or glass-break sensor, or door pin

switches, or current sensing.
Patented Stay-Safe Disarm.

Alarm detects open circuit, does zone bypass.
Set for chirp delete.
Yellow wire of 10-pin connector loose.
Poor alarm brain ground.

Fused orange wire and fused red wire

connected to the same source.
Tried to test the triggers too soon after the

alarm was armed.
Automatic Starter Disable is engaged.
