Step 2 - The system will respond with three park light flashes and the horn will honk (optional) the
same number of times as the events in memory. ( Maximum four events, four honks)
NOTE: If the horn does not honk, there are no events in memory.
Step 3 - Press the Program Button once to view the last shut down code. The (optional) Horn will honk
once to confirm code one. (If the horn does not honk, there are no codes in memory).
Step 4 - The LED’s will flash a code corresponding to a shut down trigger. Press the Program Button
again to check the second code. The horn will honk twice to confirm code two.
Step 5 - To Clear Diagnostic Memory. While in Diagnostic Mode press and hold the Program Button for
five seconds. The park lights will flash and the horn(optional) will honk once.
