Diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of the system is constantly monitoring the switches that are connected to the main unit. ➢ Locking If the system is locked at the same time that the door input is active, you will hear one horn honk to indicate locking, and then a second horn honk to indicate Bypass Notification. Note: Bypass Notification does not occur if the optional horn and door input is not installed or when the system is in Silent Mode or if the notification honks have been programmed Off by the installer. ➢ Unlocking Extra honks when unlocking the system is a notification that the battery in the remote is low and needs to be replaced. Important: The optional horn honk feature must be in- stalled. ➢ Remote start This system can provide you with information to indicate what the problem is when using the remote start. When the remote start is activated and fails to engage, count the parking light flashes to determine the problem. The parking lights will flash between 5 - 8 times to indicate what caused the no start situa- tion. • 5 flashes: brake wire is active • 6 flashes: hood pin is active • 7 flashes: manual transmission mode is enabled and not initialized • 8 flashes: neutral safety wire has no ground or the remote start defeat toggle switch is off. Keep a record of the number of flashes, to assist your authorized Directed dealer when taking the vehicle in for service. © 2009 Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 25
