installed a Hornet 554T, and when the car alarm is disarmed, it blinks 3 times and then 2 times, and repeats.
also, the the manual setup to change the factory settings doesn't work, when you hold the valet button in to select which menu you want it doesn't chirp like its suppose to

The manual says . Open a door and have the ignition turned on and back off.
If the ignition wire is not conected correctly or if the door contact is not correctly installed you won't be able to use the ghost switch.

3 flashes = Door Switch Trigger
2 flashes = Instant trigger - a heavier impact detected by the shock sensor
Will the LED status reset after you turn the ignition on and back off ?

i mean i tested the door trigger w/ mutlimeter, also i tested it by opening the door while armed, it went off. i've also tested teh shock sensor.... so this means that its not resetting?

ok, i'm a dumbass :( anyway i didn't connect any of the relays because i thought they were for remote start only, and i don't want to use remote start just yet... they mainly are but i guess the alarm functions off the pink wire from the relay, so thats why its not resetting, i'm going to install the pink wire only and connect (h3) to the alarm

jaxman, you were right all along, i didn't connect the pink wire from the satellite relay, because most of it is for remote start, :( thanks for you help
