I'm not too experienced with installs in fact this was my first so I'm a little worried I did something wrong. I installed it in my 2003 corolla. I metered eaverything out and it seemed fine so I pluged the module in started the car and hit the tach learning button the car flashed it's lights and the siren chirped so I thought i was home free.  I tried the remote in fact both remotes and i get nothing but the antenae symbol on the two way remote. I tried the tach program again and now the horn doesn't chirp or nothing but the shock sensor seems to still be working  I metered it out again and I don't see any problems. Thinking back the only thing I did a little unusual is hooking the GREEN / WHITE wire Parking light (-) output to the red Headlight wire at the light switch but the headlights use a relay so this should work right? (just make the headlights flash with Parking)

you should only make the parking lights wire run the parkings on the car. when you said you see antenna symbols.....make sure the remotes are programmed and make sure your antenna is plugged in good.

read the procedure on tach learning, matbe your doing something wrong

I know you probably heard this a thousand times.......Check your wires even if that means disconnecting it and starting over.

well, make sure your setting is for what ever your car is,

if I am not mistaken, I think there is a dipswitch setting for auto or manual....last time I put one I just set the dipswitches.

Not to be obvious, but did you program the remote. I know the SS and the 900 don't come programmed from the factory.
