Hello,

I have an avital avistart 4100. Currently the parking lights flash while the car is remote started. How do I change it so that they are constant? What is the learn procedure/routine? I located the valet/program switch but I can't seem to get any setting to take with it. If someone could give me the procedure I would like to compare it to what I have been trying. Also, anyone know if these settings can be locked (if so that might explain why I can't get mine to take)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

w/ door open, turn key to ON then off.

press and hold valet button until you hear 3 chirps, youre now in menu #3.

press the valet button 4 times, the 4th time hold it. it will chirp 4 times to confirm. while holding it, press unlock to change to constant.

I tried to no avail. Not able to hear any sort of chirping. I also have tried viewing the LED on the brain for any flashes throughout the learning procedure (my manual says it should blink) and I have not seen it blink yet. My manual explains a similar procedure that doesn't work either. It is:

turn key to ON then OFF

then press the button 4 times and on the 4th hold. Press unlock (button 2) to change to contant.

What else can I try? Please help! I will paypal $10 to the person with the solution that fixes my problem as a token of my appreciation!

what bitwriter will interface with this remote start (avital avistart 4100). I am considering buying one off ebay, using it once, and then reselling it. Is the bitwriter option a guarantee fix for this problem? Will it unlock this damn thing?

like you were already told.... cycle ign on then off... press the valet button 4 times, then press and hold it... the LED will flash 4 times to confirm...then press button 2 on your remote.... this will switch from flashing to constant....

tried it a thousand times, no luck. No LED flash, nothing...

Could it be locked (is that even possible)?
