STEP 2: Scroll through menu allowing for 1 parking light flash and/or siren chirp per step.
STEP 3: Once finished scrolling through the menu wait for the parking lights and/or siren chirp to confirm
the option number. i.e. option 2-04 will flash 4 times. Then use one of the table selections to select the
option corresponding to your desired setting.
Resetting to Factory Defaults: To reset the options in a particular menu group, enter the menu shown
in the above tables. To reset options with a 2 Way remote tap button 3 three times. To reset options with
a 1 Way remote tap the Key/Start button 3 times. Wait for the siren to chip and parking lights to flash
between each tap. After the third tap, the option menu will reset and the siren will chirp three times. This
must be done for each option group that needs to be reset.

Remote Programming Routine
IMPORTANT: Any and all remotes must be coded to the control module prior to performing any and all
operations.
Remotes excluding P2WSSR
STEP 1: Activate programming mode by manually turning the vehicle’s key between the Ign On and Off
(or the Acc & On positions) five times within 7 seconds. The vehicle’s parking lights will flash once with
the successful completion of this step. (Note: this step also places the control module into Valet Mode)
th
STEP 2: Within a 2 second period after the 5
ignition cycle tap Button I on two way remotes or the
Lock button on one-way remotes for 0.5 seconds. The parking lights will flash once to confirm the
transmitter has been coded. Repeat for additional remotes, up to three.
Exiting Programming: Programming is a timed sequence. After 2
seconds 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 tapping Button I on two way
remotes or the Lock button on one way remotes. The parking lights
will flash once confirming each additional remote. All systems (except
the P2WSSR), can recognize up to three remotes.
Note: If you program only 1 Way remotes to a 2 Way antenna you will
receive 3 parking light flashes and/or siren chirps when you turn the
ignition on. This will be alleviated by programming a 2 Way remote.
Pro P2WSSR
STEP 1: Remove the AA battery from the remote.
STEP 2: Activate programming mode by manually turning the vehicle’s key between the Ign On and Off
(or the Acc & On positions) five times within 7 seconds. The vehicle’s parking lights will flash once with
the successful completion of this step. (Note: this step also places the control module into Valet Mode)
th
STEP 3: Within a 2 second period after the 5
ignition cycle, insert the AA battery into the remote. The
parking lights will flash once to confirm this step. If you have an additional 1 Way remote tap the Lock
button after inserting the AA battery into the 2 Way remote.
STEP 4: Wait several seconds for the parking lights to flash twice and the remote LCD to receive a page
back. The transmitter has now been coded.
Programming Multiple Remotes: After the confirmation flash given in step 3, program the optional 1
Way remote by tapping the Lock button for 0.5 seconds. The parking lights will flash once confirming
that the 1 Way this remote has been learned. The P2WSSR can recognize (1) 2 Way remote and (1) 1
Way remote.

A: This usually means that the engine sensing mode is not working correctly. If you are using a coil,
change to an injector or try alternator mode.
The vehicle will lock and unlock, but will not remote start or flash the parking lights.
A: The system is in valet mode. Tap buttons (I) + (III) for 0.5 seconds while the key is in the on position.
Whenever I try to arm the vehicle, it chirps the siren 3 times and will not arm.
A: Check the hood and trunk trigger inputs.
When I turn the ignition on the parking lights flash 3 times and/or siren chirps 3 times. What is
the problem?
A: When you program only 1 Way remotes to a 2 Way antenna and no 2 Way remotes the control
module reminds you of this situation each time you turn the ignition on. It does not affect the operation of
the system but will continue to do so until you program both 2 and 1 Way remotes to the 2 Way antenna.
Do the door locks flip flop in polarity?
A: No. You can use the CompuPack (relay pack) for high current positive (+) locks, or the DM600
harness used for low current 600mA positive (+) locks.
What is this cartridge slot on the rear of the CM5000 and CM5200?
A: This is the slot for the Blade cartridge system by ADS. This slot is for the Idatalink Blade remote start
bypass modules. For more information on the compatibility and install information please visit
www.idatalink.com/fitguide. Using this system eliminates many connections between your standard
control module and bypass module. IMPORTANT: If you are not using the Blade then you will not have
or use the 20 pin connector next to the back up battery port.
