Why doesn’t my CM900 have the green/white wire loop inside the brain module?
A: The CM900S/AS are for Automatic transmission vehicles ONLY.
What do I do with the thick blue wire on Connector 1?
A: It is used to power a (+) 2nd Ignition. You can also change the output via jumper within the control module. It can be
changed to power a (+) 2nd Accessory or (+) 2
nd
Starter.
I need a ground when armed wire, does the control module have one?
A: You can use pin 1-blue/white wire on the Grey Connector 5. 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 and it doesn’t back feed to your
accessory. Install the stripe side of the diode facing the control module.
Does the CM900 series have tachless mode?
A: Yes. The CM900S and CM900AS are default set for tachless engine sense. For details, 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.
The vehicle will lock and unlock but will not remote start or flash the parking lights.
A: The system is in Valet Mode. Tap the Lock and Trunk Buttons for a half second to exit Valet Mode. You
can also turn the ignition ‘On ‘and press the foot brake 10 times within 10 seconds.
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.
Do the door locks flip flop in polarity?
A: No. You can use the FT-DM700 relay pack for high current positive (+) locks, or the FT-DM600 harness
used for low current 600mA positive (+) locks.
What are Firmware Version Diagnostics?
A: When you turn the Ignition on and hold buttons 1 and 4 or Lock and Start for 2.5 seconds then the
parking lights will flash 1 time on the CM7 series showing V.1.
What is this cartridge slot on the CM900?
A: This is the slot for the Blade cartridge system. This slot is for the Idatalink Blade remote start bypass
modules. For more information on the compatibility and install information please visit www.compustar.
idatalink.com. 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 black 20 pin
connector on the control module.
