Tach Programming
The unit will not operate unless tach is programmed or tachless option is
turned ON. 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 and 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/override button 3 times.
3. Immediately turn the ignition key OFF.
4. Press and hold the valet/override button, then start the vehicle using the
key.
5. When the unit senses the tach signal, the parking lights will begin to flash.
6. Allow the vehicle to settle to a normal idle speed.
7. Release the valet/program push-button switch. The parking lights will
turn on for 2 seconds indicating that the learned tach signal is stored and
the unit has exited tach learn mode.
NOTE: If the unit fails to learn tach rate due to an improper tach connection or a
poor tach source, the parking lights will not flash. To correct this situation, locate
and connect the PURPLE/WHITE wire to the proper tach signal, and then repeat
the tach learn routine.
