Auto Tach Programming Procedure
NOTE:
If no tach has been programmed and the ,, button is pressed, there will be
no start attempt and the vehicle will give 5 flashes.
If another Tach Programming is required, simply repeat the Auto Tach
Programming Procedures.
The Module stores the Tach setting, being AutoTach or Multi-speed Tach,
until the Module is reset.
ONLY if the Module is reset will a new Tach Signal need to be re-
programmed.
This process can be carried out instead of the conventional Tach Programming Procedure.
1. Make sure all the connections are done properly and that the Module has been
powered-up.
2. With the Hood up (Ground on the Hood Pin line), start the vehicle using the key.
3. Let the Engine reach proper idle speed
The Parking Light output from the Module is activated when the vehicle starts and it
will shut off once the Tach signal is detected.
4. Press and hold the Brake Pedal until the Parking Light output from the Module
flashes 5 times.
5. Turn the Ignition OFF. At this point, the Tach setting has been programmed.
Table 4
Multi-Speed Tach Programming
The system is designed to read a wide range of Tach signals produced by newer Ignition
systems. No manual adjustments are necessary. However, you should go through the Tach
programming procedure every time a new Unit is installed.
1. FLASH the Hood Pin Switch.
Before the 20 seconds have passed.
2. Press and hold the Brake Pedal.
Press buttons , & ,, simultaneously on the Transmitter.
The Parking Lights will flash 4 times.
Release the Brake Pedal.
3. Start the vehicle and let it to reach regular Engine-idle speed.
4. Once the vehicle is idling properly, press and hold the Brake Pedal until the Parking
Lights flash five times, release the Brake Pedal: the Tach signal is now programmed.

Testing
Before putting back the vehicle together, it is recommended to check that the system
operates properly. The following testing procedures should be used to verify proper
installation and operation of the system. Before testing, make sure that all connections are
soldered and that the unit is plugged in.
1. Remote-start the Engine and listen for Starter drag. If the Starter cranks for too long,
carry out another Tach learning procedure.
2. Test Hood Switch shutdown: with the vehicle running under the Remote Starter, open
the Hood; the vehicle should shut down. If it does not shut down, check the Hood Pin-
switch and its connector.
