Ok, I needed to correct some wiring and you have to be VERY, VERY QUICK on the Ignition On/Off for Programming.
So far I learned that:
1. It takes a Quick Hand to get into the Programming Mode.
2. Both Ignition wires (pink/white & pink/green) on my Ram need to see 12V+
3. In order to get that second ignition wire to see a 12V+, I had to use the second relay that Compustar supplied.    I connected the Green wire on Connector #2 to the purple pigtail of that second relay. Then I used the Blue wire from that second relay and connected it to my Second Ignition wire.
4. The Diesel starts up, but in order to program for a Delay start time of 20seconds (Cummins says that maximum glow plug time is 18seconds), you have to take the unit to a Compustar dealer. UNLESS Anyone has any Way Around this?
NOW on to Bigger Problems....
Today my truck remote started up fine, but later in the day I tried a remote start, and a Icon appeared on the LCD that is not in the Users Manual and the truck did not start.   The Icon is in the Drivers Window and it almost looks like a button that moves up and down.   I also noticed that I can not Query the vehicle, I just get the same Icon to appear. What does this Icon mean???

The Same thing Happend Again today! The truck started fine in the morning, but at noon I could not remote start it!
The Icon (or image) is in the Drivers SIDE Window of the LCD and it almost looks like a button that moves up and down (like a door lock button).   I also noticed that I can not Query the vehicle, I just get the same Icon to appear. What does this Icon mean???

The Pin (or button as I've called it) in the Drivers Side Window of the LCD display actually represents the Hood Pin. When it appears, it means the hood is opened. Or in my case, when some of the snow had melted and provided a negative path for this simple sensor, the brain thinks that the hood is opened.
I wonder what other Images await and are not in the instruction book?!
