TROUBLE SHOOTING
The LED's do not turn on when Tach Learning?
1) The Tach wire input may be connected to the wrong wire. Check the Tach location and connection then "reset and relearn".
2) The system may be in Tachless Mode. On TL models the Tach wire connection is optional and the LED's do not turn on during the 35 second learn procedure.
When I unlock the doors the windows roll down or the Trunk Pops?
This issue is caused by the length of the unlock pulse. To correct this issue program the system for short door lock pulses. (125ms)
The alarm activates 30-45 minutes after setting it?
To prevent the vehicles battery from going dead the computer will "hibernate" like your home computer might. In some vehicles this causes the door pin input to change state. The alarm detects the change of state and activates. A relay must be installed to isolated the door pin circuit from the alarm.
The starter motor stays engaged to long when remote started?
Reset then relearn the Tach with the transmission in reverse. If the vehicle is tach learned when the idle is high the starter motor may "drag". Check your ground connection if issues persist.
