Digital or analogue: which instructions to follow

The ASDS-7506, ASDS-3520, ASRS-3520 and ASDS-1554 remotes work with both Autostart Digital and Autostart Analogue remote starters, so check which module your vehicle has before you program.

  • Digital modules: the module number is DS4, DS3, DB-ALL or DB-ALL2. Use the digital programming guides.
  • Analogue modules: the module number starts with AS-. Use the analogue programming guide. Analogue modules need a working hood pin to program.

Programming needs a working hood pin

Analogue Autostart modules, and some other brands like Astrostart, need a working hood pin before they'll let you program a remote or change features. A hood pin is a plunger switch that tells the system whether the hood is open or closed. If the pin isn't working, programming won't start.

Hood pins live under the hood near heat, water, dirt and road salt, so they're often rusty, dirty or broken. Mechanics can also bend or break them by closing the hood on them.

Try this first: with the hood open, gently but firmly pull up on the plunger, and while you hold it up, twist it back and forth. That grinds the dirt off the contacts between the shaft and the plunger, and often gets a dead pin working again.

Still not working? Check the terminal where the wire connects. If it's rusty or dirty, clean it. If the pin is bent or broken, replace it: replacement hood pins are here.

How to free up a sticky hood pin
  1. Hood open, but the remote starter gets no signal. Rust and dirt on the contacts are blocking it.
  2. Gently, but firmly, pull up on the plunger and hold it there.
  3. Keep it pulled up and twist it back and forth. This grinds the dirt off the contacts.
  4. Clean contacts, signal back. Now the system will let you program.
