Frequently Asked Questions CM6200
I have everything hooked up and the system will not respond.
A: The remotes need to be programmed. Review the “Common Procedure” section of this manual.
When remote starting the siren chirps 3 times and parking lights flash 3 then 1 time.
A: You must program tach before remote starting. Also be sure to check the foot brake and ignition wires on
the CM6000 and CM6200.
I am trying to program the control module with the OP500 Option Programmer and it flashes
“ER 01” when I plug it in to the antenna cable. What should I do?
A: Make sure that the system is not locked/armed. 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.” You no longer need to program the remotes before the
OP500 will sync.
What is the green/white wire loop inside the brain module?
A: This wire determines the transmission mode. With the loop intact, the system is set for manual
transmissions. With the loop cut, the system is set for automatic transmission.
Where do the blue and purple wires off the extra relay go on the CM6000/CM6200?
A: This is a pre-wired positive output, negative trigger relay. Use the secondary ignition, starter, and
accessory outputs from CN3 to give a negative trigger to the purple wire. This will determine the12V positive
(+) output of the blue wire, which you can then connect to your secondary ignition, starter, or accessory
wire.
I need a ground when armed wire, does the control module have one?
A: You can use pin 1-blue wire output on CN3 that goes to the starter kill relay. You must cut this wire and
place a diode in line so that when the ignition on the other side of the relay goes to ground, it won’t back
feed to your accessory. Install the stripe side of the diode facing the control module.
Does the CM6 series have tachless mode?
A: Yes. The CM6000 and CM6200 all are tachless. Review the “Common Procedures” section of this
manual.
All my connections are made and remotes programmed, how do I program the tach?
A: Review the “Common Procedures” section of this manual. You must have your remotes programmed,
start your vehicle, then hold the remote start button. Vehicle should chirp and/or flash once if it programs,
three times if it does not like the tach source.
