Frequently Asked Questions
I have everything hooked up and the system will not respond.
A: The remotes need to be programmed. Review the “Common Procedure” section of this manual.
When remote starting, the siren chirps 3 times and parking lights flash 3 then 1 time.
A: You must program tach before remote starting. Also, be sure to check the foot brake and ignition wires on
the CM900.
I am trying to program the control module with the OP500 Option Programmer and it flashes
“ER 01” when
I plug it in to the antenna cable. What should I do?
A: Make sure that the system is not locked/armed. The last thing to check is the antenna cable or antenna
extension cable
–
make sure this is not damaged. If you need to, try another cable. When the OP500 is
working properly, it will read “success good.”
