The Parking Light output from the Module is activated when the vehicle starts and it
will shut off once the Tach signal is detected.
4.
Press and hold the Brake Pedal until the Parking Light output from the Module
flashes 5 times.
5.
Turn the Ignition

NOTE:
If no tach has been programmed and the
START/STOP
button is pressed, there will be no start attempt and the vehicle
will give 5 flashes. If another Tach Programming is required,
simply repeat the Auto Tach Programming Procedures. The
Module stores the Tach setting, being Auto Tach or Multi-Speed
Tach, until the Module is reset.

if the Module is reset will a
new Tach Signal need to be re-programmed.
Testing
Before putting back the vehicle together, it is recommended to check that the system
operates properly. The following testing procedures should be used to verify proper
installation and operation of the system. Before testing, make sure that all connections are
soldered and that the unit is plugged in.
1.
Remote-start the Engine and listen for Starter drag.
If the Starter cranks for too
long, carry out another Tach Programming procedure.
2.
Test Hood Switch shutdown
: with the vehicle running under the Remote Starter,
open the Hood; the vehicle should shut down. If it does not shut down, check the
Hood Pin-switch and its connector.
