remote start is interfaced before this switch, it will provide protection from starting in gear. However, some vehicles combine the column shift mechanism and the mechanical neutral safety switch into one mechanical part. Important: You must complete the remote start system installation before doing the following test. Ensure that the remote start system is functioning normally. This includes connecting to the brake as a shut-down. Testing the neutral safety switch 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Startup Diagnostics: If the vehicle fails to activate the remote start, the remote start module will flash the parking lights on the vehicle to notify you of what caused the no-start situation. Parking Light Flashes 5 flashes 6 flashes 7 flashes 8 flashes Brake wire is active Hood pin wire is active Manual transmission mode is enabled and not initialized. Neutral safety wire has no ground or the neutral safety switch is Off.
Programming System Features The System Features Learn Routine dictates how the unit operates. It is possible to access and change most of the feature settings using the Control button. 1.

Basic Remote Functions See Owner’s guide for functionality details on the 1-way remote controls. Reset and Deletion If a feature/virtual tach needs to be reset or the remote controls need to be deleted, use the following procedure. 1. Turn the ignition to the ON position (The heavy gauge pink wire must be connected). 2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Control button: 2 times if you want to delete remotes, 3 times to reset features or 4 times to reset virtual tach..
Troubleshooting: Keyless Entry System does not Auto re-lock: 1. Is Auto re-locking programmed ON? 2. Are the door inputs connected? Either the H1/8 green or the H1/6 violet should be connected. Door locks operate backwards. • This unit has easily-reversed lock/unlock outputs. Recheck wire connections to see if you have reversed these. Troubleshooting: Remote Start The remote will not activate the remote start 1. Check remote startup diagnostics. 2. Is the neutral safety switch plugged in and turned on? 3.
1. Is the system programmed for engine checking off or virtual tach voltage sense? When programmed for either of these features, the engine cranks for the pre programmed crank time regardless of how long it takes for the vehicle to actually start. Adjust to a lower cranking time. 2. Was the Tach Learn successful? The LED must light solid and bright to indicate a successful learn. 3. Make sure that there is a tach signal at the purple/white tach input wire of the remote start.
