The vehicle will now be in ready mode, to start 
press START on the transmitter. 
 
 

REMAINING IN READY MODE 

 
Once the vehicle is in Ready Mode you can start 
and stop the vehicle at will. 
However, should any of the following occur the 
vehicle would come out of Ready Mode thus 
eliminating the remote start option until Ready 
Mode is restored? 
 
1. Doors 

opened. 

2. Hood 

opened. 

3. Brakes 

pressed. 

4.  Parking brake disengaged. 
5.  Key turned to the ON position. 
Should any of the above occurs, ready mode would 
be cancelled.  
 

*NOTE: The unit will notify the user that it has 
exited Ready Mode by giving three slow flashes 
of the vehicles Parking lights. 

 
 

CLUTCH BYPASSING

 

 

 
Most manual transmission vehicles will require 
the clutch to be pressed in order for the vehicle 
to crank. This being true under remote start as 
well, so a clutch bypass must be performed. 

A simple thing to look for when performing a bypass, 
is the maker of vehicle you are working on, typically 
most domestic vehicles have a direct feed wire at the 
clutch switch, this means that the starter wire in the 
vehicle becomes continuous with +12volts when the 
clutch is pressed. 
While import cars typically have a relay that is 
controlled with the clutch pedal. This means that 
when the clutch is pressed it will send a signal to a 
relay, allowing the vehicle to start.

 Always test first. 

 
 

PARKING BRAKE WIRE 

 

The system has a Parking brake input; this 
input is used as part of the Ready Mode 
sequence and must be connected.  This input is 
supposed to be a ground.  All vehicles are 
equipped with a Parking brake, and all use a 
negative signal. 

The easiest location to find this wire is at the 
Parking brake housing. 

Always test first. 

 
 
TRUNK OUTPUT 
 

The unit is equipped with an AUX negative 
output; refer to this output as CH3 (TRUNK). 
This output can be used as a remote trunk release 
by connecting it to a relay that would activate the 
vehicle’s trunk or hatch release, whenever 
TRUNK on the remote transmitter is activated. 
 

NOTE:

 The output from the module is a 250ma 

signal that has been designed to activate a relay, 

DO NOT

, under any circumstances drive the 

OEM trunk wire with the direct output from the 
module, a high current relay must be used. 
 
 

RESETING THE MODULE 
 

All AutoStart’s are equipped with a reset 
function that allows the installer to erase all 
transmitter codes and return all programmed 
options to factory default. 
 

To reset the module: 
 

1.  Turn the Valet switch “OFF”. 
2.  Apply ground to Pin # 12 (External Trigger). 
3.  Turn the Ignition “ON”. 
4. Raise 

Hood. 

5.  Press and hold brake “ON”. 
6.  Turn Valet switch “ON” 
7.  Parking lights should flash 8 times quickly. 
8.  Press Lock on transmitter within 5 seconds 

to program transmitter.

See Custom Programming options for 

default settings. 

 
 
SECURE LOCK 
 

Secure lock is for cars that arm and disarm off 
the lock and unlock wires. (I.e.… New VW’s) 
When secure lock is activated it will unlock the 
doors prior to remote start the car. Once the car 
is started it will relock the doors. (Usually not 
rearming the factory security). After remote 
shutdown or run time it will relock the doors 
again. (Rearming factory security)
