Being that the installer does not always see when the system shuts down or fails to
start, Diagnostic Memory will store in memory up to four shutdown codes.
This information can then be accessed to determine the source of the shutdown.
To Enter Diagnostic Mode:
Step 1 -
Turn the ignition on then off. Press the Program Button and release.
Step 2 -
The system will respond with three park light flashes and the horn will honk
(optional) the same number of times as the events in memory.
(Maximum 4 events, 4 honks).
NOTE:
If the horn does not honk, there are no events in memory.
Step 3 -
Press the Program Button once to view the last shut down code. The horn
will honk once to confirm code one.
(If the horn does not honk, there are no codes in memory.)
Step 4 -
The LEDs on the antenna will flash a code corresponding to a shut down
trigger. Press the Program Button again to check the second code.
The horn will honk twice to confirm code two.
Step 5 -
To
Clear Diagnostic Memory.
While in Diagnostic Mode press and hold the
Program Button for five seconds.
The park lights will flash and the horn (optional) will honk once.
NOTE:
Once diagnostic memory has 4 shutdown events in memory, the system will not
Record any further shutdown events until the system memory has been cleared.

If the remote starter does not activate when the start button is pressed the park lights will
flash a diagnostic to indicate what shutdown input has been triggered.
Example
when the start button is pressed the park lights flash 3 times slowly. Looking at
the chart below this would indicate that the system is in Service Mode.
