SHOCK SENSOR GIVES REPEATED WARNING TRIGGERS.
•
If the sensitivity of the sensor is too high and/or if the mounting location
is incorrect, the sensor may be triggering on the otherwise undetectable
sounds of the hazard light relay switching, or even the siren vibration.
Reduce sensitivity and/or change the mounting location of the sensor.
•
Another cause of shock sensor false triggers pertains to the shock sensor
4-wire harness. Make sure no other wires are touching or in close prox-
imity to the shock sensor wires. Also make sure there is no RF trans-
mitter device is very close proximity to the shock sensor wires.
HORN/SIREN NEVER SOUNDS.
•
If using the 2460B’s siren, re-check your wiring as per page 13.
•
If using the 2460B’s siren, ensure the siren’s keylock is switched ON.
•
If you were trying to connect to the vehicle’s horn, you may have con-
nected to the wrong location or have the wrong polarity. It’s also pos-
sible you bypassed the vehicle’s horn relay and instead connected to the
Horn itself, which would draw too much power. The 2460’s (–) Horn/
Siren output can supply 1A, which is not enough for most 5A air horns.
The Horn/Siren output has an internal PTC fuse to protect the circuit,
but the fuse will need time to cool if blown. It is also possible the PTC
fuse was damaged. You can determine that by testing the Horn/Siren
output without any load attached. If you find there is no (-) Ground
when you trigger the horn/siren, the fuse could be bad and in that case
you would need to return the control module to KIRAMEK for repair.
INSTALLATION IS FINISHED BUT 2460 WON’T WORK CORRECTLY.
•
Check what is connected to the 2460’s PUR 12V output wire. If the
attached load draws more than 1A, the PUR wire’s output voltage will
drop and if it drops too low the CPU inside the control module will stop
working until that high current load is disconnected.
•
If you purchased an optional transmitter kit, do you have the antenna
unit’s 3-wire harness properly connected to the BLK 3-pin connector on
the back of the 2460 control module? Never connect it to the WHT 3-pin
connector on the front of the control module!
•
It could be the system is working but there is a problem with your Horn/
Siren output connection. Arm the system and check the status LED. If
it starts flashing, that is proof the system is Armed and working. It also
could be you are trying to test the shock sensor with either the sensor
disconnected or the sensitivity turned off.
•
If the vehicle battery voltage is too low, the 2460 will cease working.
However, the 2460 and attached sensors and transmitters are designed
to function even when the battery voltage falls as low as 8.5V.
