To disarm VRS
®
(after siren has begun chirping):
1. Turn the ignition to the ON position.
2. Press and release the Valet
®
/Program switch the selected number of times programmed in
Step 2-5. (See System Features Learn Routine section of this guide.)
NOTE: For a detailed explanation to the VRS triggered sequence, refer to the Vehicle
Recovery System section of the Owner's Guide.
The Rapid Resume Logic feature ensures that when the security system is powered back up after power has been
disconnected, the system will resume the same state it was in before power was lost. For example, if power is dis-
connected during a full trigger sequence, the system will still be in the full trigger sequence when power is
reconnected to the unit. If power is disconnected while the unit is disarmed, it will still be disarmed when power is
restored. This also applies to the VRS sequence. If the unit loses power at any time during the VRS sequence, it
will automatically resume the VRS full trigger sequence when the unit is powered back up.
Starter kill doesn’t work:
Is the correct starter wire being interrupted? If the car starts when the starter kill relay is completely dis-
connected, the wrong starter wire has been cut and interrupted.
Yellow wire is not connected to true ignition. It is connected to an accessory circuit.
Shock sensor doesn’t trigger the alarm:
Has the NPC
system been triggered? If so, you will hear five chirps when disarming. To check this, turn
the ignition key on and off to clear the NPC
from memory, and then retest the shock sensor. For a detailed
description of NPC
, see Owner’s Guide.
Door input does not immediately trigger full alarm. Instead, I hear chirps for the first three seconds:
That’s how the progressive two-stage door input works! This is the instant response feature of this system.
Even if the door is closed immediately, the system provides an instant trigger by chirping, and the pro-
gressing to a constant siren.
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.
System will not passively arm until it is remotely armed and then disarmed:
Are the door inputs connected? Is a blue wire connected to the door trigger wire in the vehicle? Either the
green H1/5 or the violet H1/7 should be used instead.
Door input does not respond with the progressive trigger, but with immediate full alarm:
What zone does the LED indicate? If the LED indicates that the impact sensor caused the trigger, the sen-
sor may be detecting the door opening. Reducing the sensitivity or relocating the sensor can often solve
this problem. If the LED indicates that the door caused the trigger, you may have programmed the pro-
gressive door trigger off. (See Feature 2-4 in the Feature Descriptions section of this guide.)
