CM6200 Install Guide
The vehicle will lock and unlock, but will not remote start or flash the parking lights.
A: The system is in Valet Mode. Tap buttons (I) + (III) for a half second to exit Valet Mode.
Whenever I try to arm the vehicle, it chirps the siren 3 times and will not arm.
A: Check the hood and trunk trigger inputs.
When I turn the ignition on the parking lights flash 3 times and/or siren chirps 3 times. What is
the problem?
A: When you program only 1 Way remotes to a 2 Way antenna and no 2 Way remotes the control module
reminds you of this situation each time you turn the ignition on. It does not affect the operation of the system
but will continue to do so until you program both 2 and 1 Way remotes to the 2 Way antenna.
Do the door locks flip flop in polarity?
A: No. You can use the CompuPack (DM700 relay pack) for high current positive (+) locks, or the DM600
harness used for low current 600mA positive (+) locks.
What are Firmware Version Diagnostics?
A: When you turn the Ignition on and hold buttons 1 and 4 or Lock and Key/Start for 2.5 seconds then the
parking lights will flash 1 time on the CM6 series showing V.1.
What is this cartridge slot on the rear of the CM6000, CM6200, and CM6300?
A: This is the slot for the Blade cartridge system. This slot is for the Idatalink Blade remote start bypass
modules. For more information on the compatibility and install information please visit www.idatalink.com/
fitguide. Using this system eliminates many connections between your standard control module and bypass
module. IMPORTANT: If you are not using the Blade then you will not have or use the 20 pin connector
next to the lock harness.
How do I take the system out of Valet Mode with a 1 Button Remote?
A: Turn the ignition on, tap the button 5 times within 7 seconds and the system will exit Valet Mode.
Why are the ignition controlled doorlocks option not working?
A. Check option programming. Option 1-09 should be on either setting 2 or 3. The option has to also be
turn on via the remote. On 2 Way LCD remotes tap buttons I and IV for a half second, the parking lights
will flash once to show the option is turned on. On 1 Way remotes tap the Lock and Start buttons for 0.5
second.
The vehicle remote starts when disarmed, but not when armed.
A: The starter kill relay was installed backwards. Check to make sure the yellow/black wire is going to the
ignition side of the wire, and that the yellow wire is going to the engine side.
The vehicle starts and shuts down 3 times in a row.
A: This usually means that the engine sensing mode is not working correctly. If you are using a coil, change
to an injector or try alternator sense mode.
