Trouble shooting - frequently asked questions
SCANNERS does not remember pattern
Memory loss will occur whenever the positive wire loses
contact with the battery for a moment. This can occur if
the positive wire is attached to the wrong contact on the
fuse box or some other location in the vehicle. Try to
connect the SCANNERS positive wire directly to the
battery positive terminal.
SCANNERS does not work when connected to my
alarm
If you want the SCANNERS to turn on when you activate
you alarm system you must connect the orange SCANNER
wire to the grounded output (when armed) of your alarm
system. DO NOT CONNECT TO THE LED OUTPUT!.
The LED output wire only provides a 2-3 volts flashing.
Refer to your alarm system installation manual or ask
your local dealer for the correct ground output wire.
My SCANNERS does not turn off when I arm my alarm
system.
This situation is caused by ground leakage through the
ignition kill relay. You must install a diode per the following
diagram.
