CrimeStopper EZEE Start EZ-90 Operating Instructions Manual page 12

UNIT CRANKS VEHICLE BUT ENGINE NEVER STARTS:
• In extreme cold or severe weather conditions, the unit may take more than the first attempt to start the
vehicle. The remote start unit will make up to 3 attempts to start the engine.
• In some vehicles, there may be a Factory anti-theft system that will not allow the engine to run without the
key in the ignition. These systems may include Factory Security Modules, GM Passkey®/Passlock®, and
RF Transponder systems (Ford P.A.T.S.®). Many late 1990's through 2005 vehicles include some type of
Anti-Theft system which may require a bypass module. Check with your installer to make sure that the
bypass device (if equipped) is functioning properly.
• The vehicle may have more than one Ignition or Accessory circuit that requires power for the vehicle to start.
This is common on many late model vehicles.
SYSTEM IS UNSUCCESSFUL AT REMOTE START DURING EXTREME COLD CONDITIONS:
Please be aware that during sub-freezing conditions your remote starter may take more that one attempt to start,
or it may not successfully start the vehicle after 3 attempts. During these conditions the vehicle may not properly
start even using the key, therefore trying to start by the remote would also be unsuccessful.
VEHICLE STARTS BUT "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT COMES ON OR ENGINE RUNS BADLY:
• Many 1995-UP General Motors cars/trucks require a secondary ignition circuit for the Transmission
computer and other on board systems. If the vehicle is started without this wire energized, there may be a
"Check Engine" or "Service Engine Soon" light on the dash. This may cause damage if the vehicle is driven
in this condition. Check with installer to see if this circuit is present and has been properly connected to the
system.
• In some cases [commonly Nissan vehicles], an additional "Start" (Cranking) circuit is required for the vehicle
to run properly. This system includes a wire that can be used for this Starter #2 circuit. Check with your
installer for details.
