Trouble-shooting with the “Self Diagnostics”
See also document # 110 - Troubleshooting the AutoCommand.
The AutoCommand® is a very ‘safety oriented’ product. It is constantly looking for a reason to shut
down the vehicle. It is for this reason that we designed it with a built-in self-diagnostic system.
If for any reason the AutoCommand® shuts off — you can ask the AutoCommand® to tell you with
the self-diagnostics why it turned off the last time or failed to start. This feature should be used any
time the remote starter fails to get the vehicle up and running.
A. Simply let your AutoCommand® run it’s cycle by turning the control switch on and pressing
the remote control start button. Five minutes after the last cycle simply turn the control
switch OFF and start counting the first series of feedback flashes. Note that this will work
even if the AutoCommand® does not attempt to start the vehicle, if the AutoCommand is
unsuccessful, or if the vehicle starts and prematurely shuts off.

2 Hood or Brake activated
3 No Tach or stalled
4 Received another remote input / no door pin signal
On manual transmission units
5 Car went into gear
6 Low battery
7 Received alarm input
8 Overcurrent
9 No emergency brake signal on manual transmission units.
12 The Control Switch was turned off too soon.
Here are the common reasons for each of the 10 codes above:
1 This code nomally means the unit ran for it programmed run time and then shut down
properly, BUT- The default code of one will appear if the unit has not yet started the vehicle
or if the unit is somehow reset. Some solutions: Reprogram the transmitter, move your
ground wire to a new location, and make sure you are connecting the power wire directly to
the battery.
2. Either the hood or brake input was activated. Disconnect each wire in-turn to figure out
which one is the culprit. Note that a hood pin switch can be mounted such that when the
vehicle is ‘starting’ the hood pin could receive a ground signal — thus turning off the vehicle.
Make sure the pin-switch is mounted such that it pushes down enough when the hood is
closed to prevent slight movements of the vehicle to cause it to close. In some cases if the
reproduction were the most crucial factors to survive during these periods. However, in this postmodern time period, many contemporary installation artists use sculptural materials and other mixed media to transform the way a particular space is practiced. Objects used in contemporary art have a range from each day of our life or natural materials to new media such as installation, performance, video or sound. Contemporary postmodern practices often face and undermine what is familiar to us in the world of
A negative impact of pipeline installation, and notably the most concerning to the public, is the destruction of land and the environment that must occur during installation. Underground pipelines generally extend over a great enough area that there are difficulties avoiding wildlife habitats, national parks, private land, and reservations. In general underground pipelines have an easement, or permanent rights to land of a set width following the length of the pipeline, of 30-60 feet. In addition
system. Many other tests were most likely put into place before the system was offered to other departments like ours. Once the testing phase was complete it was time to move on. Installation The installation process is done by installing the new system and retiring the old system. The four methods in the installation process are direct cutover, parallel operation, pilot operation, and phased changeover (Wikipedia, 2006). In direct cutover they old system is instantly change from old to new. Parallel
Graphics Imaging Corporation ordered my team to perform a systems installation for a small publishing company in North Miami. The installation was to be performed according to company standards; first the hardware which included an image setter and then a “Mac Server” running OS 10 (Operating system version 10) followed by installing specialized software to interface with a desktop publishing application. Upon completing the installation of the software and hardware, the team and the customer found the

Installing A Car Stereo System Throughout this project, each component will be required to be compatible with the other components chosen. The dual purpose for this is to keep cost factor low and facilitating installation. Several adaptors can be eliminated by having compatible components. Five major components will be used in this system, the head unit, the front speakers, the rear speakers, the subwoofer, and the subwoofer amplifier. Head Unit The head unit is the most important component and
at the University of Hartford from 1973 to 1976. In late 1976, she was offered a position at Rutgers University, New Jersey, and has been teaching there ever since. She has been giving her expertise in the form of photography and the art of installation and multi-media for fourteen years now, and she doesn’t plan on giving it up anytime soon. As Skoglund began to see that the sky was the limit, along with teaching, she decided to experiment with illustration and commercial images. The advancement
Landslides Warning System INTRODUCTION Landslides are the down slope movement of mass of land, rock, soil, or related debris. In most mass movement, water plays a pivotal role by assisting in the decomposition and loosening of rock, lubricating rock and soil surfaces to enhance the beginning of movement, adding weight to an incipient landslide, and imparting a buoyancy to the individual particles, which helps overcome the inertia to move. Landslides can also be triggered from volcanic
processes and ideas that I have learned thru this experience can be applied directly into today’s rich electronic business environment. Identifying the needs of the user is the first step for building a well-designed Network. A professional installation was needed to maintain the aesthetics of the rental house. Most of the wires are run in the attic and then down plastic conduit attached to the wall. The conduit is run all the way to the wall boxes where the Ethernet ports are located. Every
often cause drops in productivity following introduction of new equipment that can exceed the price of the technology. This still occurs with incremental purchases of new inexpensive equipment. · Performance tends to drop shortly prior to installation, as firms make ready for new systems. Performance drops can last over a year after the introduction of new equipment. · The greatest cost stem from mismatches between the new technology 's capabilities and needs, and existing process and
Implementation A key factor in determining the success of any installation is planning. Planning involves several phases-from understanding your current capabilities, to determining your current needs, anticipating your future needs, and, ultimately, finding a viable solution. We have all been in situations where the immediate need surpassed the need for planning and the installation was rushed. More often than not, the installation had to be repeated to correct problems.

Negotiations stalled in December 1972 after Hanoi’s chief negotiator, Le Duc Tho submitted unreasonable demands concerning the definition of the demilitarized zone and refused to withdraw troops from South Vietnam. Furthermore, he wouldn’t accept the installation of an international peacekeeping force. National Security Advisor, Henry Kissinger, believed these demands were just a smokescreen intended to put off the talks long enough for the new United States Congress to come into session. He and Nixon feared

the bandwidth. Switches let you to connect either a shared segment of bandwidth (workgroup) or a dedicated one (server) to each port. Second, this can be done without changing any software or hardware already on the workstations Finally, a switch installation is less complex than a bridge/router
the box has been tampered with. Pirates were able to get around this by installing an in-line amplifier which would weaken the reflected signal. One problem with TDR is that you need previous readings, which are not usually taken at the time of installation for a reference point. The second way is to modulate an identification signal onto the cable line at about 108 MHz. This signal sounds something like a "cuckoo", and "leaks" from the converter box where it can be picked up by cable company employees
