having trouble programming the tach on my car. i have gone through both procedures (auto program and multitach) and still the car will not start by remote.
i know that i have the right tach wire becasue i had another R/S on the car previously that was able to program to the tach.
the car is a 95 escort 1.9L

So when you attempt to remote start the vehicle, does anything happen? Does the ignition come on? Is there a series of parking light flashes? What wire did you connect to for tach programming? And lastly, when you go to learn tach, does the unit confirm that your tach was successfully learnt? It should flash the parking lights 3 times shortly after pressing the brake.
when i remote start, the module goes through the proper sequence but it cranks to long. the car is already running and the starter is still turning

hi
i did install more then 500 care with this starter and i think for me is the best one with the programing just in 30 secand to program the remote and the tach just do this ground the hood pin and push the programing button in the sid of the brain push it and release it 2 times then hold the brake until you hear 5 clik or 5 flash for parking light yyou do this while you holding both lock unlock buttons at the same time then after release the brake and start the car with the key then push the brake again until you hear 5 click and 5 flashng light shut of the car and close the hood then you done
Have you tried to re-learn the tach signal? The problem you are having is indicative of a poor tach signal, and as a result the starter is over cranking. Try re-learning the tach and if it still does overcranks, I would suggest you change the location of the signal.
Possible suggestion for a new signal would be the off-color at the fuel injector. You will find that at the injector there will be 2 wires feeding into each one, typically a Red and then something else. If you take your tach signal from the color that is NOT common, you should be ok.
Thank you for all the replies!!!!
dmielken had it right.
My old R/S wasnt as sensitive as the new one. i read through some forms on another site and found that my tach wire was not the one i was on, although it would have worked but its too weak.
So i tried this other wire (in my case yellow/blue) and the first time i went into the learning it work.
I absolutly am very pleased with my new starter.
Thanks again for all the help, and this site helped my bigtime also.
