TROUBLESHOOTING cont.

UNIT CRANKS VEHICLE BUT ENGINE NEVER STARTS: (2 parts)

1.In extreme cold or severe weather conditions, the unit may take more than the first attempt to start the vehicle. The remote start unit will make up to 3 attempts to start the engine.

2.In some vehicles, there may be a Factory anti-theft system that will not allow the engine to run without the key in the ignition. These systems may include Factory Security Modules, GM Passkey®/Passlock®, and RF Transponder systems (Ford P.A.T.S.®). Many late 1990’s through 2005 vehicles include some type of Anti- Theft system which may require a bypass module. Check with your installer to make sure that the bypass device (if equipped) is functioning properly.

SYSTEM IS UNSUCCESSFUL AT REMOTE START DURING EXTREME COLD CONDITIONS:

Please be aware that during sub-freezing conditions your remote starter may take more that one attempt to start, or it may not successfully start the vehicle after 3 attempts. During these conditions the vehicle may not properly start even using the key, therefore trying to start by the remote would also be unsuccessful.

VEHICLE STARTS BUT “CHECK ENGINE” LIGHT COMES ON OR ENGINE RUNS BADLY: (2 parts)

1.Many 1995-UP General Motors cars/trucks require a secondary ignition circuit for the Transmission computer and other on board systems. If the vehicle is started without this wire energized, there may be a “Check Engine” or “Service Engine Soon” light on the dash. This may cause damage if the vehicle is driven in this condition. Check with installer to see if this circuit is present and has been properly connected to the RS900.

2.In some cases [commonly Nissan vehicles], an additional “Start” (Cranking) circuit is required for the vehicle to run properly. The RS900 VII system includes a wire that can be used for this Starter #2 circuit. Check with your installer for details.

RS-900 specifications

Crimestopper Security Products RS-900 is a state-of-the-art alarm system designed to provide advanced security and peace of mind for vehicle owners. This innovative device is packed with features and technologies that ensure comprehensive protection against theft and unauthorized access, making it an excellent investment for anyone looking to enhance their vehicle’s safety.

One of the standout features of the RS-900 is its two-way remote control functionality. This allows users to receive real-time notifications and alerts directly on the remote key fob. The system can communicate back to the user up to a mile away, providing an added level of convenience and reassurance. The remote also includes an LCD screen that displays various alerts and information, making it easy to monitor the status of the vehicle at a glance.

Another significant aspect of the RS-900 is its advanced security sensors. The system is equipped with a shock sensor that detects any vibration or sudden movements around the vehicle. This feature helps in identifying potential break-ins or theft attempts, triggering the alarm to alert the owner and nearby individuals. Additionally, the system includes door sensors that monitor unauthorized entry, ensuring that any attempt to tamper with the vehicle will not go unnoticed.

The RS-900 is built with multiple channels and programmable features, allowing users to customize the alarm settings according to their preferences. For instance, users can set the sensitivity of the shock sensor, choose from different alarm sounds, and even program the system to activate automatically when the driver exits the vehicle. This flexibility makes it ideal for a wide range of vehicles and owner preferences.

Furthermore, Crimestopper has incorporated a vehicle immobilizer feature in the RS-900. This function makes it challenging for thieves to start the engine, ensuring that a stolen vehicle cannot be driven away easily. The combination of this immobilizer with the alarm system creates a formidable deterrent against vehicle theft.

Overall, the Crimestopper Security Products RS-900 is a robust vehicle security solution that integrates advanced technologies with user-friendly features. Its two-way communication, comprehensive sensor array, and customizable settings provide vehicle owners with the tools they need to protect their assets effectively.
