Flashing the Hood Pin Switch
Flashing the Hood Pin switch is a procedure that brings the Remote Car Starter into
Programming Mode. Once the Remote Car Starter is in Programming Mode, the installer
will have up to 20 seconds to select one of the sub-menus. If the installer fails to select a
sub-menu before the 20-second delay, the Remote Car Starter will exit Programming Mode
and the installer will have to flash the Hood Pin switch once more.
Tip
As long as the Hood is up, you may use the
Programming Assistance Button instead of the Hood
Pin switch.
