Remote Coding / Programming Routine
IMPORTANT: Every Firstech remote must be coded to the system prior to performing any
operations. All remotes must be coded at the same time.
Programming 2 Way 4 Button Remotes:
STEP 1: Activate Valet/Programming mode by manually turning the ignition key on and off (between
the Acc & On positions) five times within 10 seconds. The vehicle’s parking lights will flash once with
the successful completion of this step.
STEP 2: Within 2 seconds after cycling the ignition for the 5
th
time, tap the Lock button on 2 way
remotes or the (lock) button on 1 way remotes for a half second. The parking lights will flash once
to confirm the transmitter has been coded.
Exiting Programming: Programming is a timed sequence. The parking
lights will flash twice signaling the end of programming mode.
Programming Multiple Remotes: After the confirmation flash given in
step 2, code additional remotes by pressing button (I) on 2 way
remotes or the (lock) button on 1 way remotes. The parking lights will
flash once confirming each additional remote. All compatible systems
can recognize up to 4 remotes.
Remote Start Error Diagnostic
If the remote start fails to start the vehicle, the parking lights will flash three times immediately.
Following those three flashes the parking lights will flash again corresponding to the error table.
