QuestionI purchased the Commando FM-870. I installed it
myself.
I have it plugged it now, but cant seem to get it into the different
programming modes? for example, when I try to program Alarm Feature
"I", here's what happens....
1) Turn ignition ON/OFF 3 times, leave in OFF position.
2) Press valet switch twice and hold.
3) Instead of hearing one chirp and one long chirp, it EXITS after 15
seconds with 3 long chirps?
First I thought maybe the valet switch was the problem, but if I
switch the ignition ON/OFF 3 times, leave in OFF position, and DONT
press the valet switch at all, it doesnt even do the EXIT 3 long
chirps. This makes me think that since it only 'EXITS' if I press the
valet, that the switch is at least plugged in and working?
I've tried all kinds of combinations....ON/OFF 3 times, leave in ON
position. press valet 4 times, 6times, 1 time......always the same
result, 3 long EXIT chirps.
I called Commando directly, and they said I should try turning the ignition
ON/OFF either slower or faster. This doesnt makes sense to me since I hear
the 3 long EXIT chirps after 15 seconds, I assume it is recognizing the
ignition pulses, just not the valet pulses?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
AnswerI sent this to Commando and they still have not returned the email.
I wish I had a solid answer, but no, unfortunately
you will need to contact 1 800 780-1409 and speak
to Ryan, Bill or, Chris for the support you require
on this piece.
My appologies for the delay, but I had
nothing helpfull to offer.
