Neutral safety switch interface Some vehicles do not have an electrical neutral safety switch. Instead, the vehicle has a mechanical neutral safety switch that physically interrupts the starter wire and is used when the vehicle is in any drive gear. If the remote start is interfaced before this switch, it will provide protection from starting in gear. However, some vehicles combine the column shift mechanism and the mechanical neutral safety switch into one mechanical part.
Startup Diagnostics: If the vehicle fails to activate the remote start, the remote start module will flash the parking lights on the vehicle to notify you of what caused the no-start situation. Parking Light Flashes 5 flashes 6 flashes 7 flashes 8 flashes Brake wire is active Hood pin wire is active Manual transmission mode is enabled and not initialized.
