Neutral Safety Test
Some vehicles do not have an electrical neutral safety switch.
Instead, a mechanical neutral safety switch that physically inter-
rupts the starter wire is used when the vehicle is in any drive gear.
If the 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. In
these vehicles, it is impossible to interface the remote start
system before the neutral safety switch. With this type of vehicle,
if the car is left in a drive gear and the remote start system is acti-
vated, the vehicle will move and may cause damage to persons or
property.
Testing the Neutral Safety Switch
1.
Make sure there is adequate clearance to the front and
rear of the vehicle because it may move slightly.
Note!
You must complete the remote start system
installation before doing the following test.
Ensure that the remote start system is function-
ing normally. This includes connecting to the
brake as a shut-down.
Important!
This test must be performed to deter-
mine if the vehicle will start while in gear. If the
vehicle attempts to start during this test you
must call Technical Support at 1-800-477-1382
for assistance before using the remote start fea-
ture.
