ALARM TRIGGER DIAGNOSTICS
This systems includes disarm diagnostics, through the LED light, that will help in determining what caused the last trigger of the alarm system. This is a valuable tool in determining how the vehicle was tampered with or if there is a false alarm problem in which case you can make the necessary adjustments to correct the problem.
When the system is disarmed with the remote you will hear the normal 2 chirps, then 4 quick chirps that indicate the alarm was triggered while you were away. Check the LED light for a sequence of flashes:
Shock Sensor Violation = 1 Flash | Door Violation = 2 Flashes |
Hood/Trunk = 3 Flashes | Ignition Violation = 4 Flashes |
Diagnostics will reset when the Ignition is turned on or when the system is
REMOTE START DIAGNOSTICS
If the system flashes the parking lights one to three times and doesn’t attempt remote, it means the following:
1 Parking Light Flash = Problem with Brake Switch. There could be a problem with a bad brake light. Many dual filament light bulbs connect the brake and park lights together when bulb goes bad. Check all brake lights work properly.
2 Parking Light Flashes = Problem with Hood Switch. Make sure hood is closed or that the Blue hood pin wire is not shorted to Ground.
3 Parking Light Flashes = Valet Service Mode. Check the systems LED light and if it is on solid Red LED (with doors closed) then the system is in Valet Mode. To exit Valet Mode, turn the Ignition on, press and hold Valet Button for about 5 seconds until LED goes out. Unit is now out of Valet Mode and should perform a remote start.
7 Parking Light Flashes = Manual Transmission Mode Error.
