Auto Mate model 3

Hello all, I just purchased a car with the automate model 3 installed I have the owners manual and not the install guide. The alarm is set up for passive arming right now and I would like to change it to active. The info in the owners manual is to see dealer for programming. Can somebody post directions for changing from passive to active or tell me where I might find the install guide. DEI website only has the owners manual available.

I couldn't find a "model 3" but this should still work. 1. Open door. 2. Turn ignition on then off. 3. Withing 5 seconds press and hold the valet button. After 3 seconds the horn will sound once to indicate the entry into the first features menu. To select the second features menu continue to hold the valet button until the horn soundse twice. Once thedesired menu is selected release the valet button. 4. Withing 5 seconds press and release the valet button the number of times corresponding to the desired feature. Then press the valet one more time and HOLD. The horn will sound the number of times equal to the feature selected. 5. While holind the valet button, select the feature by either pressing lock or unlcok button.

I promise to be good.

Tell Darwin I sent you.

I've been sick lately, sorry I won't be on much.

Hey Auex, I tried your instructions several times with no luck. After doing steps 1,2 and 3 I end up in the valet mode and not the programming mode. Do you or anyone else have any different instructions. The owners manual says that Active arming is default does anyone no how to reset to defaut of course this will probably screw the remotes then they will need programmed?

Any help out there?

is it a 3 or a 3 plus? routine. open drivers door.. turn ignition on / off press valet button once press and hold valet button (siren will chirp once) while holding valet button, press button 1 on remote siren will chirp once. let go of button turn ign on to exit programming.Shaughn Murley

if it's a model 3 (external shock sensor) you need to open the little door on the alarm and CUT the red loop.Shaughn Murley

Shaughn, I think its just a model3 no plus so your saying to change from passive to active arming all I have to do is cut the red jumper?
