Wiring Considerations

How to Sol der

1. Strip about one-half-inch of insulation from the wires and slip a piece of shrink tubing over one of them.

2. Join the wires, then heat the wires with a soldering gun whilst touching solder to the wires until the solder melts.

3. Pull the wires to test the solder joint, then position the loose shrink tube over the solder joint and gently heat with a hot air gun so that it tightly seals and insulates.

How to Secure Non-locking Connectors

1. Join the two non-locking connectors together as indicated in the installation instructions for the component you are installing.

2. Wrap the cable tie around the connector as shown and tighten it securely around the connectors.

Passenger Compartment Connections

Control Unit and Superheterodyne Extended Range Receiver

The Con cept 600 con trol unit must be in stalled in side the ve hi cle. Un der no cir cum stances should the unit be in stalled un der the bon net or other simi larly hos tile en vi ron ment.

1. Select an area behind the dash to mount the control unit using the supplied wire tires, but do not permanently affix it until all wiring and testing is complete. To maximize the sensitivity of the tilt/motion sensor, make sure the control unit is mounted as flat as possible behind the dash (i.e., not mounted on its side).

2. Plug the extended range receiver in to the control unit. Mount the extended range receiver away from the control unit and run the antenna either up the window pillar and affix it to the windscreen, or under the dash, away from metal. The position and location of the receiver will effect remote control range. Do not fold the excess cable or antenna wire. Do not make hard, sharp bends.

Door Trigger/Interior Light Supply

LED Status Indicator

Select a prominent location on the dash or console visible through all windows. Discuss placement with the owner.

1. Verify there is adequate space to accommodate the LED, then drill a 5/16” (8mm) hole and route the wires through it.

2. Mate the LED connectors to the VIOLET and BLACK wire connectors as shown in the diagram on page 5.

3. Remove the adhesive backing and press the switch into place.

PlainView Coded Valet Switch 2

1. Discuss placement of the switch with the vehicle owner and avoid placing the switch where it can be pressed accidentally.

2. Verify there is adequate space behind the selected location to accommodate the switch.

3. Drill a 5/16” (8mm) mounting hole, then insert the wires through the hole.

4. Mate the switch’s locking connectors to the WHITE and BLACK locking connector.

5. Remove the adhesive backing and press the switch into place.

Remotely Adjustable Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor

This efficient new-generation proprietary radar sensor is immune to the wind and temperature variations that cause ultrasonic sensors to false alarm. The sensor must be mounted onto a metal surface and face outward into the passenger compartment. It should be positioned as close as possible to the centre of the passenger compartment. Suggested mounting locations include within the centre console, behind the dash, under the carpeting of the central hump or even in the headlining. When selecting a location, keep in mind that metal as well as metallic paint, metallic-coloured plastic and metal-laced window tint material will interfere with the radar field. Be certain not to mount the sensor under a location where the vehicle owner may store coins, CDs or cassettes

(iron-oxide tape). The radar waves of the sensor will pass through nonmetallic materials such as plastic, fabric and carpet.

1. Temporarily affix the sensor where it will be mounted, but do not yet permanently mount it until after adjusting and testing sensitivity (the sensor may need to be relocated, so do not permanently secure it until it has been thoroughly tested).

2. Join the Proximity Sensor to the connector with the BLACK, WHITE/BLUE and RED/BLACK wires, then secure the wires with a cable tie.

Optional Dual-Zone OmniSensor

1. Firmly mount the OmniSensor module on a flat surface on the center of the firewall (passenger or engine compartment side). The arrow on the module must point straight up.

2. Plug the connector in to the connector on the wireloom (route through a grommet if mounted on the engine compartment firewall).

3. Adjust sensitivity using the instructions provided later in this manual under the Sensor Adjustment section.

Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor

Find a solid, firm horizontal surface within the passenger compartment (such as under the seat or structural support under the dash) and thoroughly prep the area for mounting. Do not mount the sensor on the transmission hump, very rapid heat buildup can affect sensitivity. The unit is mounted with the supplied double-sided adhesive material, so the mounting area must be very clean.

1. Mount the unit onto a clean, horizontal surface using the supplied double-sided adhesive material.

2. Join the connector from the Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor with the connector with the GREEN, ORANGE, RED and BLACK wires, then secure the wires with a cable tie.

NOTE: The Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor will become active 10 seconds after arming the Concept 600. Suspension systems on some vehicles, such as Range Rovers and Citroens, lower after the ignition is turned OFF and will require more time before the sensor becomes active. To extend this time delay, cut the black sensor wireloop

— this will provide a two-minute delay.

Boot Trigger

Vehicles with an ground-switching boot light will interface directly with the Concept 600 (on positive switching Rolls-Royce vehicles, use a relay to invert polarity). The switch may be located in or near the boot latch or at the boot light. If a switch cannot be located, you must add a pin switch in a location away from water channels.

NOTE: If the ve hi cle has a dash board boot ajar in di ca tor, in stall a 1- amp di ode be tween the light and switch with the di ode band point ing to ward the switch.

1. Connect the GREY/YELLOW wire to the boot switch (between the diode and switch if you added a diode).

Passenger Compartment Connections (Continued)

Brake Switch

The brake switch connection is required for the operation of the Concept 600’s anti-carjacking electronics.

1. Turn the ignition to the “ON” position and press the brake pedal to verify that the brake lights are operational.

2. Find the one wire that carries +12V when the brake pedal is pressed, then connect the BLUE/WHITE wire to this wire.

Indicator Lights

See the Indicator Lights section in this binder.

Starter and Ignition AutoImmobilisation Circuits

1. Locate the ignition switch wireloom under the dash and use a voltmeter to locate the one wire that carries +12V throughout

BOTH the cranking AND engine running cycles, and 0 volts when the ignition is off.

2. Start the engine, then cut the ignition wire. The engine should stop running.

3. As shown on page 3, connect the BLACK wire with the Ignition Input +12 Volts label to the key side of the cut ignition line.

4. Connect the BLACK wire with the Ignition Output +12 Volts label to the engine side of the cut ignition line.

5. Use a voltmeter to locate the one wire that carries +12V during the cranking cycle ONLY. Cut this wire, then try to start the engine. It should not crank.

6. Con nect the BLACK wire with the Starter In put +12 Volts la bel to the key side of the cut starter line.

7. Connect the BLACK wire with the Starter Output +12 Volts label to the engine side of the cut starter line.

NOTE: The starter cir cuit may carry a very high cur rent. Be cer tain that the starter wire con nec tions are solid.

8. Remove the labels from each of the four wires.

Auxilliary A with Selectable Output Type

The auxilliary A output (GREY/VIOLET wire) can be programmed as either pulsed, latched or timed and can be programmed to operate only when the system is disarmed (e.g., for use as a remote boot release). Auxilliary A output is activated by transmitting channel 2 from the master remote control or by pressing the button on the companion remote. The factory setting is pulsed output (0.5 second ground). The latched output stays at ground until channel 2 is activated a second time, and the timed output stays at ground for any selected duration between one second and four minutes. Current is limited to 0.15 amp. See

Installer-Programmable Features on page 15 for information on programming the output type and/or disabling operation whilst the system is disarmed.

Auxilliary B with Selectable Output Type

The auxilliary B output (GREY/BLUE wire) can be programmed as either pulsed, latched, or timed. The auxilliary B output is activated by transmitting channel 7 from the master remote or by pressing the button on the companion remote. Current is limited to 0.15 amp.

The latched output stays at ground until channel 8 is activated a second time, and the timed output stays at ground for any selected duration between one second and four minutes. See Installer-Programmable Featureson page 15 for more information on programming output type.

Auxilliary C with Selectable Output Type and AutoActivation

The auxilliary C output (GREY/RED wire) can be programmed as either pulsed, latched or timed and in addition, can also be programmed to automatically activate every time the system is armed using the remote control. The auxiliary C output is activated by transmitting channel 8 from the master remote control or by pressing the and buttons on the companion remote. The factory setting is pulsed output (0.5 second ground). AutoActivation is perfect when programmed as a timed-output to close the power windows and sunroof on vehicles that have an all-close feature. The latched output stays at ground until channel 8 is activated a second time, and the timed output stays at ground for any selected duration between one second and four minutes.

Current is limited to 0.15 amp. See Installer-Programmable Features on page 15 for information on programming the output type and/or enabling the AutoActivation feature.

Engine Bay Connections

RPM Monitoring

This is required for both RPM-activated automatic door locking and for BlackJax anti-carjacking features. See the RPM Monitoring section in this binder for information.

Self-Powered SmartSiren 4

The control unit and siren utilise two-way digital signal transmissions to maintain a constant communication link. If the communication link is broken whilst the system is armed (if a thief disconnects power or tampers with the siren wires), the siren will sound for five minutes and then reset. Since this will only occur whilst the system is armed, there is no need for a siren override key.

Unlike other back-up battery sirens that constantly drain the car battery, Clifford’s design draws charging current only when the ignition is on (i.e., engine running). If the internal battery is flat, the arm/disarm chirps are muted.

1. You must firmly secure the siren to the engine bay firewall or an inner wing using all three sheet metal screws supplied. Mount the siren away from areas of water ingress or excessive heat. Point the siren down to avoid moisture.

2. Run the cable from the Self-Powered SmartSiren through the firewall into the passenger compartment using caution as not to tear the pins from the end of the cable.

3. Push the pins connected to the GREEN, YELLOW, BLACK and RED wires into the supplied connector as illustrated on page 3.

a. The pin with the GREEN wire connects to the slot labeled “4.” b. The pin with the YELLOW wire connects to the slot labeled “3.” c. The pin with the BLACK wire connects to the slot labeled “2.” d. The pin with the RED wire connects to the slot labeled “1.”

4. Join the connector from the siren to the connector with the GREEN, YELLOW, BLACK and RED wires from the wireloom and secure the connectors with a cable tie.

5. Insert the DataPort connector with the YELLOW and GREEN wires into the DataPort on the control unit.

NOTE: The ve hi cle must be driven for a total of eight hours af ter the si ren has been in stalled in or der to suf fi ciently charge the si ren’s back- up bat tery.

Bonnet Trigger

Vehicles with an ground-switching bonnet pin switch interface directly with Concept 600 (on positive switching Rolls-Royce vehicles, use a relay to invert polarity). If a switch cannot be located, you must add a pin switch in a location away from water channels.

1. Connect the WHITE/BLACK wire to the bonnet pin wire (between the diode and pin switch if a diode was added).

NOTE: If the vehicle has a dashboard bonnet ajar indicator, install a 1-amp diode between the light and switch with the diode band pointing toward the switch.

Final Wiring Connections

1. Connect the RED wire to the 5-amp fuseholder as shown on page 3.

2. Connect the BLACK wire labeled +12 Volt 30 A to the 30-amp fuseholder as shown on page 5.

3. Connect the RED/WHITE wire to the 20-amp fuseholder as shown on page 5.

4. Attach the three fuseholders to the constant +12V source at the fuse panel.

5. Use ring connectors to attach the two different BLACK wireloom wires, each labeled Ground, to two different chassis ground points or one of them directly to the vehicle fuse panel ground. The ground points must be very clean. A factory bolt that has been completely cleaned with a wire brush is recommended.

NOTE: Power and test ac ces so ries af ter the ba sic sys tem has been tested. In di vidu ally fuse all ac ces sory power con nec tions. In di vidu ally fuse all +12V fuse panel con nec tions.

SmartPowerUp™ 2

SmartPowerUp 2 ensures that the system powers up in the same state (disarmed, armed or valet mode) it was in when power was removed.

When you first power up the Concept 600, it will silently enter the disarmed state.

Wireless FuelGuard

Do not install the Wireless Fuelguard until all other components of the security system installation have been completed and the system has been powered up! Please refer to the Wireless FuelGuard section of this binder for installation instructions.

Con cept 600/299

Delayed Courtesy Lights

Some vehicles have a courtesy light delay or dimming circuit, which interferes with an alarm being able to detect the door trigger upon remote arming. If the delay or dimming lasts more than 5 seconds, no special connections or testing are needed, simply turn on the Delayed

Courtesy Lights feature as noted in the Installer-Programmable Features section on page 15. Please note that since this feature sets the system to arm the instant the courtesy lights turn off, the Door Ajar Warning feature will not be available.

Mandatory RPM Programming

NOTE: This MANDATORY programming step must be completed for the Concept 600 to operate properly.

1. Drive the vehicle to a nearby open area and allow the engine to warm-up until the RPMs drop to the normal idle speed.

2. With the engine still running, place the transmission in Park (or Neutral if the vehicle has a manual transmission).

3. Enter the customer’s valet code using the instructions provided in the Programmable Features on page 13. The assigned valet code is noted on the inside front cover of the owner’s manual. The LED will briefly illuminate. Press and hold the ✱ button for 10 seconds (you will hear one confirmation chirp after three seconds—do not stop holding the button—continue holding the button until you hear a three-chirp confirmation). Release the button.

4. Press the unmarked button once. After a three-second pause, the system will sound one chirp to confirm column one selection

(see the Installer-Programmable Features section on page 15).

5. Press the ✱ button five times (you will hear a chirp each time you press the button) to select row five. After a two-second pause, you will hear two chirps to confirm idle RPM has been set (if you hear just one chirp, check the connection of the BLACK/GREY wire, then repeats steps 1 - 5).

6. Turn the ignition OFF.

Remote Control Operation

The Concept 600 comes with two ergonomically designed remote controls: a 5-button master remote and a 4-button secondary

“companion” remote. Up to four additional Concept series remote controls can be added to the Concept 600 system. Due to the

ACG 2 feature on the Concept series systems, older Clifford ACG and non-ACG remotes are not compatible with the Concept 600.

Mas ter Re mote Con trol Op era tion

To transmit either channel 1, 2, 3 or 4: Just press either button 1, 2, 3 or 4. For instance, to transmit channel 3, press button 3. Whilst you transmit, the LED indicator on the

remote control will flash once every second: this indicates level 1.

To transmit either channel 5, 6, 7 or 8: Press the LevelShift button once. This shifts buttons 1–4 to level 2 (channels 5–8). Then press the desired button within the next 7

seconds. For instance, to transmit channel 5, press the LevelShift button once, then press button 1. Whilst you transmit, you’ll notice that the LED indicator on the remote control flashes twice, pauses, flashes twice, etc.: this indicates level 2.

To transmit channel 9, 10, 11 or 12: Press the LevelShift button twice. This shifts the buttons to level 3 (channels 9–12). Then press the corresponding button within the next 7 seconds. For instance, to transmit channel 10, press the LevelShift button twice, then press button 2. Whilst you transmit, you’ll notice that the LED on the remote control flashes three times, pauses, flashes three times, etc.: this indicates level 3.

To transmit channel 13, 14, 15 or 16: Press the LevelShift button three times. This shifts the buttons to level 4 (channels 13–16).

Then press the corresponding button within the next 7 seconds. For instance, to transmit channel 14 press the LevelShift button three times, then press button 2. Whilst you transmit, you’ll notice that the LED on the remote control flashes four times, pauses, flashes four times, etc.: this indicates level 4.

Sensor Adjustment

Digital/Tilt Motion Sensor

The Digital Tilt Motion Sensor is completely self-adjusting. No senstivity settings or adjustments are ever required.

Electronically Programmable Proximity Sensor

The Concept 600 is equipped with our unique Electronically Programmable Proximity Sensor that uses digital signal processing to detect movement inside the passenger compartment and very near the vehicle. If a thief were to break a window and either enter or lean into the passenger compartment, the primary zone of this sensor would trigger the full alarm. However, if a thief brought his hands and face to the window a warning tone would sound.

Be aware that the Proximity Sensor uses radar waves to detect movement. These waves pass through nonmetallic materials like plastic, carpet, glass and wood. However, metal and metallic-colored paint, metallic-colored plastic and even some metallic window tinting materials will interfere with or completely block the radar waves. As such, it is not unusual that the Proximity Sensor zones require some adjustment after installation. In some instances, you may need to try a different location for the sensor.

Sen sor Ad just ment (Con tin ued)

Electronically Programmable Proximity Sensor (Continued)

Since any metal ob jects above or near the Prox im ity Sen sor will have a sig nifi cant im pact on op era tion, warn your customer never to place coins, CDs, cas settes (due to the iron ox ide tape) or other me tal lic ob jects above or near where the sen sor is mounted.

1. Turn off any fluorescent lights that may interfere with the sensitivity testing of the Concept 600’s radar sensor.

2. Disarm the system with the remote control.

3. Transmit channel 16 on the master remote (LevelShift three times, then button 4). You will hear one chirp and the LED will turn on.

4. Test the Proximity Sensor’s primary zone by rapidly leaning through an open window into the passenger compartment. You will hear a siren chirp when the primary zone is triggered. This should not occur near the window, but instead when you would be in a position to touch the car stereo.

To change the sensitivity of the primary zone, press and release button 2 to increase sensitivity or button 4 to decrease sensitivity.

To rapidly increase or decrease several steps, press and hold the button. For each sensitivity increase, you will hear a higher and higher pitched confirmation chirp. For each sensitivity decrease, you will hear a lower and lower pitched confirmation chirp. Two

LoudChirps indicate minimum and maximum settings of the 32-step range of settings. You may now press button 3 to adjust the warning zone, or press button 1 to fully exit the Proximity Sensor adjustment mode (you will hear 3 chirps).

To change the sensitivity of the warning zone, press button 3 (you’ll hear 1 chirp). Then use the same procedure as above, but this time, rapidly bring your hands and face to the window as a thief would to see what’s inside. The sensitivity of the warning zone should be set so that it is triggered when your face and hands are within a few inches of the window, no further. When done, press

button 1 to reselect the primary zone (you will hear 2 chirps), then button 1 again to fully exit Proximity Sensor adjustment mode

(you will hear 3 chirps).

5. Repeat the preceding steps as required. An improperly adjusted sensor will cause the Concept 600 to false alarm or not respond properly to a genuine threat. Keep in mind that you may need to reposition the sensor, possibly after the customer has had the system for several days.

Re mote-Con trolled Over ride of Each Prox im ity Sen sor Zone

Transmitting channel 10 at anytime from the remote whilst the system is armed will override the warning zone of the Proximity

Sensor. This prevents the system from sounding warnings if the vehicle must be parked in an area with heavy pedestrian traffic. A second transmission of channel 10 anytime afterward whilst the system is still armed will override both zones of the Proximity Sensor.

This comes in handy when a pet or a passenger must be left in the vehicle. The channel 10 warning zone override is visually confirmed with 4 flashes of the indicator lights. A second channel 10 transmission to override both zones is confirmed with four more flashes. The sensor zones are automatically restored the next time you arm.

Optional Dual-Zone OmniSensor Adjustment

Our optional Dual-Zone OmniSensor uses digital signal processing to detect vibration and/or impact to the vehicle. If a thief were to break a window or cause any impact to the vehicle, the primary zone of this sensor would trigger the full alarm. However, if a thief brushed against the vehicle a warning tone would sound.

1. Disarm the system with the remote control.

2. Transmit channel 15 on the master remote (LevelShift three times, then button 3). You will hear one chirp and the LED will turn on.

n To adjust sensitivity of the primary zone: q q q q q q

To change the sensitivity of the primary zone, press and release button 2. You will hear 1 chirp.

To make a new sensitivity setting, press button 2. You will hear 2 chirps.

Thump the car firmly with your fist, you will hear one chirp.

Press button 4, you will hear two chirps.

You may now test sensitivity by thumping the vehicle firmly with your fist. You should hear one chirp.

At this point, you can:

Press button 2 to make another new setting for the primary zone (you will hear two chirps).

Press button 1 to exit (you will hear three chirps).

Press button 3 to adjust the warning zone (see instructions on the next page).

Press button 1 to adjust the primary zone (see instructions above)(you will hear two chirps).

Press button 1 two times to exit sensitivity adjustment mode.

4. Repeat the preceding steps as required. An improperly adjusted sensor will cause the Concept 600 to false alarm or not respond properly to a genuine threat. Keep in mind that you may need to readjust the sensor, possibly after the customer has had the system for several days.

FACT—False Alarm Control and Test

The system microprocessor automatically checks for another activated sensor or trigger before sounding the siren a second time, thus preventing any further false alarms. If you wish to test FACT, simply:

1. Arm the Concept 600 with the re mote con trol.

2. Wait 10 seconds after the interior light turns off, then trigger the Proximity Sensor to activate the siren.

3. Do not disarm the system, let the siren complete its cycle.

4. Trigger the sensor again. The alarm should be silent.

5. Unlock and open a door. The alarm should sound immediately. You may now disarm.

Eight-Event TotalRecall

The system’s nonvolatile memory records the identity of the last eight activated or malfunctioning triggers and sensors:

Certificate of Installation/Ownership/Operation

After installation and testing has been completed, you must fill in the Clifford Electronics “Certificate of Installation/

Ownership/Operation.” Once you have filled in all the information required on the form, be sure that the customer signs and dates the certificate. See step 18 in the System Checklist & Troubleshooting section for instructions on distributing the form.

Programmable Features

Concept 600 comes from the factory with its features preprogrammed as noted in bold text in the tables on pages 14 and 15. Some features can be programmed by the installer or the user, others can only be programmed by the installer. There are two tables provided which define the user-programmable and installer-programmable features.

Using the CliffNet Wizard Pro

The CliffNet Wizard Pro provides almost intuitive access to all installer and user-programmable features through a user-friendly, graphical user interface. Because CliffNet Wizard Pro is Windows™-compatible, most operations can be accomplished by simply pointing and clicking a mouse. CliffNet Wizard Pro totally eliminates complicated programming charts and lengthy programming sequences. Please refer to the CliffNet Wizard Pro User’s Guide for more programming information if you are using the CliffNet

Wizard Pro. Otherwise, for manual programming refer to the tables provided in the following sections.

Programming the User-Selectable Features

1. Write down the column (across) number and row (down) number of the feature(s) you wish to program.

2. Turn the ignition to the “ON” position or start the engine.

3. Enter the factory preset valet/programming code noted on the inside front cover of the owner’s manual by pressing the PlainView

2 Switch’s ✱ button the number of times of the first digit, then press the unmarked button (then repeat for each subsequent digit.

For example, if the code is 1302, you would press the following: ✱ un marked, ✱ ✱ ✱ un marked, un marked, ✱ ✱ un marked.)

4. After entering the code, press and hold the ✱ for about 3 seconds until you hear one siren chirp and the LED turns on to acknowledge program mode entry. The Concept 600 is now in the “Feature Select” position for User-Programmable Features.

5. Select the feature column: Press the unmarked button the same number of times as the column number. Pause. You will then hear the same number of chirps as the column number you have selected, audibly confirming your selection.

6. Within five seconds, select the feature row: Press and release the ✱ button the same number of times as the feature’s row number.

You’ll hear a chirp each time you press the unmarked side to help you count.

7. If there is a NOTE for the selected feature, perform the actions noted.

8. Pause. You will hear either one or two chirps: two chirps = ON, one chirp = OFF.

9. You can select another feature, or you can exit program mode: a. To select another feature in that same column, repeat step 6 within the next five seconds (after five seconds, three chirps indicate that the Concept 600 is now back in the “Feature Select” position).

b. To select a different feature column, repeat step 5.

c. To exit program mode, turn the ignition off (you’ll hear three chirps and the LED will turn off to indicate exit of program mode), or wait 60 seconds and the Concept 600 will automatically exit program mode.

It may sound a little complicated, but it really isn’t. Briefly, here is all you do: choose the feature you want to change, enter program mode, select that feature’s column and row, wait for the on/off chirp confirmation, then turn off the ignition. That’s it!

System Checklist & Troubleshooting

The fol low ing check list and trou ble shoot ing tips will as sure that you have in stalled the Concept 600 cor rectly. If the sys tem does not re act as noted, fol low the trou ble shoot ing tip(s) de noted with a black box be low that item, then re peat the step. Each suc ces sive step re quires that the pre vious step has been com pleted as in di cated.

The Clifford Wizard simplifies the troubleshooting process by providing system diagnostic information in a graphical format. All system settings are provided at-a-glance, and adjustments to the system settings can be made with a click of a mouse. This reduces the amount of time required for performing the following tests.

Step 1.

Re- enable the cour tesy lights.

In step 1 of the Important Information sec tion in this binder, the in te rior cour tesy lights were disabled. You must now re-enable the courtesy lights by re placing the fuse you re moved or re set the cour tesy light switch back to its nor mal “DOOR” po si tion bef ore pro ceed ing.

If not, perform the following tests: n Check the WHITE/BROWN wire, ignition input is on and verify that it shows +12V when the ignition is turned ON and +0V when the ignition is OFF. If not, refer to the Starter and Ignition AutoImmobilisation Circuit on page 7.

n Test the WHITE wire at the control unit connector. It should rest at 5 volts. When pressing the marked side, it should read 3 volts and when pressing the unmarked side it should read 0 volts. If any reading is incorrect, move the voltmeter to the BLACK wire at the valet switch. It should read 0 volts at rest, 0 volts when the marked side marked is pressed, and 0 volts when the unmarked side is pressed. If the BLACK wire tests correctly and the WHITE wire does not, replace the switch. If the BLACK wire tests incorrectly, repair the ground circuit. If both wires test correctly, then the valet code has been changed. Use the

CliffNet Wizard Pro to reset the valet code.
