      If the output relay of your TriMark Car Alarm latches on or off, verify that power to the relay comes from the external relay power pin. If the condition continues, cycle power to the system; if it still persists, replace the relay.

    What does three short blinks mean on my TriMark Car Alarm?
    • R
      Rebecca CrawfordSep 4, 2025
      If your TriMark Car Alarm displays three short blinks, it means the I/O module couldn't claim its CAN address, likely because another I/O module on the bus is set to the same function instance. The I/O module will reset itself and try again, as this is considered a fatal error.

    What does two short blinks mean on my TriMark Car Alarm?
    • C
      Carol OliverSep 5, 2025
      If your TriMark Car Alarm displays two short blinks, it indicates an electrical problem with the CAN bus, possibly a problem with bus termination, or simply that the I/O module is the only node attached to the bus. If the I/O module is the only CAN unit on the network, the CAN communication must be disabled.

      If the access code for your TriMark Control Unit is not recognized, first ensure that the code hasn't been changed. If necessary, reassign the keypad following the instructions. Also, confirm you are using an access code and not the authority code.

      Laura SmithSep 6, 2025
      If your TriMark Control Unit experiences no operation or intermittent operation, try mounting the RF receiver away from enclosed metal areas and fully extend the antenna. Also, check the FOB transmitter battery voltage; these batteries typically need replacement every 1-2 years, depending on usage.
