Autostart AS-3372 TW-FM - Manual (Page 2)

To install this unit in a vehicle with an automatic transmission:
1. Cut the loop on the pc board (Yellow wire).
2. Make sure the Black/White handbrake wire is not connected to any of the vehicle circuits.
3. Make all the regular connections.
4. Power up the unit. The parking lights will flash 4 times.
5. When learning the first transmitter, the parking lights will flash 5 times quickly then give 2 slow flashes,
confirming that the module is set to automatic mode.
6. Upon the first successful remote start once the yellow loop has been cut, the system will lock the
transmission settings to automatic mode.
Note: If upon pressing the START/STOP button, the parking lights give 3 slow flashes, make sure that the Black/White
handbrake wire is not connected and that the yellow loop is cut and isolated. Transmitter Programming Procedure
1. Enter programming mode {see p.1)—the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Before the lights go out, turn the ignition key to the OFF position, then to IGNITION ON (RUN) and immediately back to the OFF
position.
3. Press and hold the LOCK button and keep it down until the parking lights flash 5 times quickly.
4. The transmitter has been stored in memory.
Note: Each unit can store 4 remotes in its memory.
To program a transmitter on the second vehicle for multi-car operation, you must press the TRUNK button (instead of LOCK
or UNLOCK) in step 3 of the transmitter programming procedure:
Entering Programming Options
1. Enter programming mode (see p.1) —the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and then press one of the following buttons:
• LOCK to access menu 1; ♦ TRUNKto access menu 3;
• UNLOCK to access menu 2; ♦ START/STOP to access menu 4.
3. The parking lights will flash and the hornwill honk (if programmed) 1, 2, 3 or 4 times to confirm entry into a menu.
4. Release the brake pedal.
Once the desired menu has been selected, the unit will fall (by default) into feature #1 of that menu; you can now select the option you
want in feature 1. Once this option has been chosen, the unit will move on to feature 2 of the menu selected, and so on.
• LOCK button to access option 1, ♦ TRUNK button to access option 3,

Caution!
Only one set of pins can be used at one time. Using more than one jumper may result in serious damage to the vehicle. The
relay output rating on this unit is 25 a at most. Defective oem solenoid switches can sometimes draw up to 50 or 60 a, causing
the 30 a fuse to blow. Always verify your circuit with an appropriate measuring device.
Tach jumper settings
Some new vehicles have a higher TACH voltage threshold,
which would fall out of the normal TACH trigger circuit of the
remote car starter. Changing the jumper to T a CH Threshold
HIGH will allow the module to properly detect the TACH signal.
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.
□ If installed on a MANUAL transmission, make sure the system properly enters and exits ready mode:
Ready mode is a sequence of steps that must be followed in order to allow manual transmission vehicles to be
remote started. To get into ready mode:
If Ready Mode is enabled by remote If Ready Mode is enabled by handbrake
1. Ensure that all the doors, hood and trunk are closed. Make sure that the gear selector is in the neutral position.
2. With the engine already running, apply the parking brake
once and release the brake pedal.
Make sure to release the brake pedal.
2. With the engine already running, apply the parking brake
twice and release the brake pedal.
Make sure to release the brake pedal.
The parking lights will flash 3 times quickly and
remain lit.
Skip to step 4.
3. Within 20 sec. of engaging the parking brake, press and
hold LOCK, UNLOCK or START/STOP on the transmitter.
The parking lights will flash 3 times quickly and
remain lit.
4. Remove the key: the engine will continue running.
5. Exit the vehicle and close all doors, hood and trunk.
6. Press for approx. 1 second either:
a. LOCK to lock the doors and shut down the engine;
b. UNLOCK to unlock the doors and shut down the engine;
c. START/STOP to shut down the engine without affecting the doors.
The system will exit ready mode if a door or the hood is opened, if the brake pedal is pressed, if the parking
brake is disengaged or if the ignition key is turned to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position.
□ Remote-start the engine and listen for starter drag. If the starter cranks for too long, carry out another tach
programming procedure.
□ Hood switch shutdown. With the vehicle running under the remote car starter, open the hood; the vehicle
should shut down. If it does not shut down, check the hood pin-switch and its connector.
□ Brakes shutdown circuit. With the vehicle running under the remote car starter, press and release the brake
pedal. The engine should shut down immediately. If the engine continues to run, check the brake switch
connection.
□ Parking brake shutdown circuit. With the vehicle running under remote start, disengage the parking brake. The
engine should shut down immediately. If the engine continues to run, check the parking brake switch connection.
□ OEM alarm control. Make sure the module is able to arm and disarm the oem alarm (if applicable).
□ Door pin shutdown circuit. Make sure the system exits ready mode when each door is opened while the
vehicle is running under a remote start. (Test each door.)
□ Door locks and trunk testing. Make sure each of these options respond to the transmitter (if installed).
□ Starter kill option. Sit inside the vehicle with all doors closed. Arm the vehicle, then try to start the engine with
the key. The engine should not start. If the engine starts, rewire the starter kill to reach proper operation.
□ Valet mode. Make sure the remote car starter is able to properly enter and exit valet mode. When setting the
remote car starter into valet mode, pressing the lock button will lock the doors without activating the starter kill.
□ Idle mode. Make sure the vehicle properly enters and exits idle mode.
