I am trying to install an UltraStart G11TL remote starter / keyless entry system in a 1992 Jeep Cherokee and am having problems. I have everything hooked up as per the manual but I can't get the thing to work. I keep getting 7 blinks which means tach lock-out. I tried programming the unit to work in tachless mode and still can't get it to work. No matter what I do I get 7 blinks. Also, when I press the lock button I get one blink but the locks don't lock. When I press the unlock button I get two blinks but the locks don't unlock. The only problems I can think of are as follows: The 92 Jeep wiring diagram says that the starter wire in the ignition harness should be YELLOW /GREEN and I could only find a solid yellow. That is what I used. I am not sure if this Jeep has a factory alarm system. There is a little black "eye" on the roof near the domelight but I have no way of knowing if there is an alarm. I have had the jeep for a long time never thought it had one. Maybe I just never had the remote for it. If there is an alarm how would I disarm it?? ------------- FRUSTRATED WITH ULTRA START!!

Did you grab your wires at the ignition switch or in the harness? What did you use for a tach wire? It should be gray/blue at the PCM. The PCM is located on the inner left fender, behind the head light. Also what wires did you use for Lock & Unlock. They located in the drivers kick panel. Lock = ORANGE / purple Un-lock = pink/purple.

I used the wires in the ignition harness......the wires in the harness were red, yellow, blue, purple, and orange. I connected both 12v inputs to the red, the acc to the purple, the ignition output to the blue, and the starter wire to the yellow. I did not use the orange wire for anything. I did use the ORANGE / purple and pink/purple in the drivers kick panel for lock and unlock. ------------- FRUSTRATED WITH ULTRA START!!

The wires from the remote starter unit that i did NOT use were the following: Selectable Output (white), Diesel Wait To Start Input (blue), Horn Output Optional (WHITE/ blue), Hood Pin Switch Input (GREEN / WHITE), Re-arm output (yellow), Trunk Release Output (RED / white), Dis-arm Output (Brown), Starter Kill (Orange), and Ground While Running Output (WHITE/ violet). I did NOT use any of these wires for anything. Could this be my problem? ------------- FRUSTRATED WITH ULTRA START!!

Also YES i did use the gray/blue wire from the PCM for the tach wire. I also tried using the unit in tach-less mode and it still gave me the 7 blink tach lockout diagnosis code
