Diagnostic Mode is a tool that can help trouble shoot a start fault. If the remote 
starter fails to start i.e.: the hood is open the park likes will flash a diagnostic code. 
i.e.: 5 flashes = start attempt with hood open. If the vehicle does not remote start, 
count the park light flashes then compare it to the chart below.

The start fault must be corrected in order for the system to operate correctly. See 
your dealer for additional trouble shooting.
