Frequently Asked Questions
I have everything hooked up and the system will not respond.
A: Check all your wires to the control module. Next check your fuses and ground. If the system does not
respond after that then try programming the remotes. Please see the “Common Procedure” section of
this manual for remote programming instructions.
Can I use any other Firstech remotes with this system?
A: Yes, the CM-900 control module is designed to only work with 4 Pin antennas and compatible
remotes. It does not work with 6 to 6 Pin antennas.
I am trying to program options with the OP500 Option Programmer and it flashes “ER 01” when I
plug it in to the antenna cable. What should I do?
A: First, make sure all connections are made to the control module. Second, make sure that the system
is not locked. The last thing to check is the antenna cable or antenna extension cable make sure this is
not damaged. If you need to, try another cable. When the OP500 is working properly, it will read
“Success Good.”
