Autowatch Ghost - Help
Changing the Disarm Code
This can be done at any time but there are few things that you will need know before you can complete this process successfully.
-
What buttons are available on your vehicle
-
If your vehicle is using the alternative to the accelerator input
-
What your indication signal is and how fast it reacts (note: some vehicles have slow indications that are fine for normal operation but can be confusing when in sequence change mode).
-
Each button press needs to be within 2 seconds of the previous button press otherwise the Ghost will consider the sequence completed
-
Some buttons are only active up to 5 seconds after the ignition has been switched on
-
Some buttons require a longer press (half a second) before activating, a short press may not register. Keep an eye on the indication signal for confirmation of each press.
-
The disarm sequence can be between 4 and 20 presses of any of the working buttons
-
The service mode button however can only be used 4 times in the disarm sequence
Decide on your new sequence before starting this procedure!
To start the process you need to have either the normal disarm sequence or the emergency override code (on the card).
Normal procedure:
-
Switch on your vehicle ignition.
-
Enter the current disarm sequence (DO NOT START THE ENGINE!).
-
Press and hold the accelerator pedal to thefloor.
-
Enter the current disarm sequence again.
-
The Ghost will now be in learn mode, the indication signal will flash every 3 seconds to confirm this. You may now release the accelerator pedal.
-
Enter your new code (This will follow with 3flashes of the signal indication)
-
Enter your new code again (This will follow with 2 flashes of the signal indication if done correctly, 4 if there was an error if so start from step one again.
