Valet Mode
When the Valet mode is activated, the vehicle will
not start using the remote, but keyless entry
functions will still operate.
To enter valet mode:
1. Turn ignition to the on position.
2. Within 5 seconds, press and hold
program switch for approximately 2 seconds.
• The LED will light solid
To exit valet mode:
1. Turn ignition to the on position.
2. Within 5 seconds press and hold program
switch for approximately 2 seconds.
•
The LED will turn off
Adding or Deleting Remote Controls
When you enter the code learning mode, the
system will learn new remotes and automatically
delete all other remotes that were previously
operating the system.
NOTE: You must code all desired remotes at this
time. The remote start unit can learn a maximum
of three codes.
To enter Code Learning Mode:
1. Turn ignition key on, off, on, off, and leave on
within 5 seconds.
LED will flicker and parking lights will flash
once.
2. Press and hold program switch for 2 seconds.
3. LED will flicker and parking lights will flash.
4. Release the program switch.
5. Program all desired remotes by pressing
button #1 on each of the transmitters. The
parking lights will flash after the system has
learned each remote control.
6. Turn ignition key off. Remotes are now
programmed to the system.
Bypassing Factory Theft Deterrent Systems
Many newer vehicles are now factory-equipped
with anti-theft systems that use either a resistor
coded key or a passive transponder that disables
the fuel system unless a properly coded key is
inserted into the ignition cylinder. To integrate a
remote starter into these vehicles, you must
determine which type of factory anti-theft system is
equipped, then use the proper bypass module for
that system.
General Motors Anti-theft Systems:
Many late-model GM vehicles are equipped with
one of three basic anti-theft systems; Passkey,
Passlock, and Passkey 3.
Standard Passkey
systems are easily identified by the resistor chip
visible on the shaft of the key. Passlock systems do
not rely on a resistor equipped key. Instead they use
a resistance code generated when the key is turned
in the ignition cylinder. Both of these systems have
an anti-theft indicator in the instrument cluster.
To properly interface into these systems and retain
full functionality of the factory anti-theft system, use
the APV-1 module.
The Passkey 3 system, which is found on GM
vehicles 1999 and newer, is a transponder based
system (described below). Use the APP-1 module
to integrate into Passkey 3 equipped vehicles. This
module allows full functionality of the factory anti-
theft system and requires the use of a spare key.
Passive Transponder Systems:
Passive transponder systems have become the
most popular anti-theft system among vehicle
manufacturers (Ford, Honda, BMW, Toyota, Nissan
and others). This system requires use of a tiny
passive transmitter housed in the base of the key.
This device activates when placed close to the
vehicle’s ignition switch. The starter will usually
crank but the fuel system will be disabled, mot
allowing the vehicle to run, if the transponder is not
detected. To properly interface into transponder
systems, use the APP-1 module. This module allows
full functionality of the factory anti-theft system and
