Programming Tach Rate:
NOTE: All applications require that tach be programmed.
The unit will not operate unless tach is programmed. If an attempt is made to start the vehicle via the
remote start without first programming tach, the unit will flash the parking lights 7 times indicating tach has
not been learned and stored. If the tach rate is not properly programmed to the specific vehicle, the unit
may not realize that the vehicle is running in certain instances reengage the starter motor.
The Remote Start Unit will learn the tach rate of most vehicle's single coil, multiple coil packs, or single
injector. To learn tach.
1. Start with the programming switch in the Off position.
2. Turn the ignition key to the On position.
3. Flip the valet/program switch On, Off, On, Off, On, then Off.
4. Immediately turn the ignition key Off.
5. Flip the valet/program switch On, then start the vehicle using the key.
6. When the unit senses the tach signal, the parking lights will begin to flash. The lights must flash at
least 10 times
7. Flip the valet/program switch Off, The parking lights will turn on for three seconds to indicate that the
learned tach signal is stored and the unit is out of the tach learn mode.
NOTE: If the unit fails to learn tach rate due to an improper tachometer connection or a poor tach
source, the parking lights will not flash.
To correct this situation, locate and connect the Green/Orange wire to the proper tach signal, and then
repeat the tach learn routine.
Diagnostics:
Enter selectable feature #7 and turn on as described above.
NOTE: Diagnostic mode is a temporary mode. Once you have accessed the diagnostic mode, the unit
will pause for two seconds then begin to flash the last stored shut down code. This code will be
displayed three times in succession, then the unit will automatically exit the diagnostic on mode.
The parking lights will flash a number of times indicating the reason for the last remote start shutdown.
The light flash indications are as follows:
1 Flash
10 or 15 minute run timer expired
2 Flashes
Low or no tach signal (RPM)
3 Flashes
Positive or Negative inhibit wire activation
4 Flashes
Control switch moved to the off position
5 Flashes
RF shutdown, Remote signal received, or manual start trigger wire reactivated.
6 Flashes
High tach signal (RPM)
NOTE: 7 Flashes when attempting to remote start indicates that Tach Has Not Been Programmed
Multi Coil Pack Adaptor: (Optional)
The multi coil pack adaptor is designed for use with vehicles having multiple ignition coils where a single
point tach signal is unavailable, or non responsive. P/N 136B1400
To use the adaptor, the Green/Black wires must connect to the negative side of the ignition coil(s).
1. For vehicles utilizing independent coils per cylinder, connect the three Green/Black leads to
alternate coils. To achieve optimum performance the coil signals must be evenly distributed. This is
accomplished by first mapping out the firing order of the engine in groups of as indicated below.
Draw a circle around any of the columns. The Green/Black wires should be connected to the
negative (-) terminal of the respective cylinder number which appears in any of the circles.
2. For vehicles utilizing 2 cylinder firing per coil pack, connect Green/Black to the tach side of each coil
pack. For 8 cylinder, four coil systems, connect to any of the three coils.
