f.Activate the remote start system.
■If the starter engages, immediately step on the brake to shut down the system. If it does engage, recheck the neutral safety input connection. The vehicle may use a mechanical neutral safety switch. (See H3/5 BLACK/WHITE neutral safety switch input in Remote Start Harness Wire Connection Guide section of this guide.)
■If the starter does not engage, the test is complete.
Once the system passes the three tests, the vehicle can be

■Shock sensor doesn't trigger the alarm:
Has the NPC™ system been triggered? If so, you will hear 5 chirps when disarming. To check this, turn the igni- tion key on and off to clear the NPC™'s memory, and then retest the shock sensor. For a detailed description of NPC™, see Nuisance Prevention Circuitry section of this guide.
■Door input does not immediately trigger full alarm. Instead, chirps are heard for the first 3 seconds:
That's how the progressive
■Closing the door triggers the system, but opening the door does not:
Have you correctly identified the type of door switch system? This happens often when the wrong door input has been used. (See Door Lock Harness Wire Connection Guide section of this guide.)
■System will not passively arm until it is remotely armed and then disarmed:
Are the door inputs connected? Is the H1/6 blue wire connected to the door trigger wire in the vehicle? Either the H1/5 green or the H1/7 violet should be used instead. (See wiring diagrams.)
■Door input does not respond with the progressive trigger, but with immediate full alarm:
Does the Status LED indicate that the trigger was caused by the shock sensor? (See Diagnostics section of this guide.) The shock sensor, if set to extreme sensitivity, may be detecting the door unlatching before the door switch sends its signal. Reducing the sensitivity can solve this problem.
■The Valet®/Program switch doesn't work.
Is it plugged into the correct socket? See
