Remote Engine Start Bi-directional Transmitter Programming Procedure
NOTE: Up to eight (8) transmitters can be programmed to the remote engine start system.
1. Open the driver’s door (the driver’s door must remain open throughout the entire process).
2. Depress and hold the vehicle’s brake pedal.
3. Turn the ignition to the “on” then “off”, “on” then “off”, “on” then “off”, then back “on” and leave “on” throughout the
programming process. (Four ignition key cycles ending in “on”, total duration from point of first ignition “on cycle
must not exceed five (5) seconds)
4. The system will flash the side marker lights, tail lights, front position lights and honk the horn three (3) times,
indicating that the system has entered transmitter learn mode.
5. Press and release the “ “ button on the transmitter you wish to program.
6. The system will flash the side marker lights, tail lights, front position lights and honk the horn one (1) time,
indicating that the system has learned the transmitter. Upon successful programming, the remote start confirming
transmitter button will flash one (1) time (within five (5) seconds).
7. Repeat step five (5) for any additional transmitters (the system will accept up to eight (8) transmitters).
8. The system will exit transmitter programming mode if the ignition key is turned to the OFF position, the door is
closed or after two (2) minutes.
12
Remote Engine Start Diagnostic Mode
The Impreza remote engine start module is equipped with a diagnostic mode that will aid in troubleshooting abnormal failure to start or
abnormal shut down conditions. The diagnostic mode saves the last abnormal failure to start or abnormal shut down in memory.
Normal shut downs will not be included in the diagnostic table. Normal shutdowns include: 15-minute run time expiration, shut down or
failure to start when the vehicle door is opened, shut down via RES transmitter and failure to start when the service mode is active.
Accessing diagnostic mode (same as transmitter learn mode):
1. Open the driver’s door (the driver’s door must remain open throughout the entire process).
2. Depress and hold the vehicle’s brake pedal.
3. Turn the ignition to the “on” then “off”, “on” then “off”, “on” then “off”, then back “on” and leave “on” throughout the programming
process. (Four ignition key cycles ending in “on”, total duration from point of first ignition “on cycle must not exceed five (5) seconds)
4. The system will flash the side marker lights, tail lights, front position lights and honk the horn three (3) times, indicating that the
system has entered transmitter learn mode.
5. Release the brake pedal and then immediately press and release the brake pedal again.
6. The system will flash the side marker lights, tail lights, front position lights and honk the horn a number of times
corresponding with the table below.
Horn Honks Shutdown Condition Diagnosis
No Honk Normal Operation Normal remote start operation. No abnormal shut downs
have occurred since installation of the system.
1 Honk Hood Safety Switch Active Verify that hood is closed and latched. Check for damaged
or mis-aligned hood switch/bracket.
2 Honks Brake Pedal Depressed Check for damaged or inop brake switch in vehicle or
connection issue between BIU and brake pedal switch. This
does not indicate failure of an RES component.
3 Honks RES Stop Request The vehicle’s BIU sent a “stop request” to the RES module
to indicate a vehicle related concern (DTC’s, etc.). Vehicle
condition must be corrected prior to restoring RES operation.
This does not indicate failure of an RES component.
Contact SOA for a listing of conditions and DTC’s that would
cause the BIU to transmit an “RES Stop Request” message.
4 Honks RPM Over-rev The RES module reads a CAN message to determine
engine speed (> 3,500 RPM). Check vehicle systems to
determine what would cause an abnormal high RPM. This
does not indicate failure of an RES component.
5 Honks Missing CAN Messages The RES system detected missing CAN Bus messages
from the BIU or TCU. Verify proper operation of both BIU
and TCU. This does not indicate failure of an RES
component.
6 Honks Shifter Not in Park This indicates that the shifter was not in park at time of
RES activation or was moved out of park after RES
activation. Verify operation of transmission/shifter switches.
Verify operation of the BIU and TCU. This does not indicate
failure of an RES component.
7 Honks CAN Error This fault indicates that the RES module recorded 24 or
more CAN error messages. Clear any vehicle DTC’s that
are present and re-test. If DTC’s continue to occur, remove
the (2) 30 AMP fuses from the RES main harness. If DTC’s
return, there is an issue with another vehicle component.
If DTC’s do not return or return only when RES system is
running the vehicle, replace the RES control module
p/n H001SFJ010.
13
The RES system shuts down when any vehicle door (or rear gate on 5-door vehicles) is opened.
– This is an additional safety feature and is normal
operation.
Note: The vehicle will continue to run if the trunk is
opened on sedan vehicles.
Advanced Troubleshooting
The vehicle starts by itself without pressing the transmitter button
Two conditions could exist that would allow the vehicle to
start without user interaction with the RES transmitter.
1. Another user’s transmitter accidently programmed to
the system and in range of actiovation.
2. Damage (usually caused by severe drop/shock) to
the RES transmitter that is allowing the button to stay
engaged or damage causing a self transmit.
1. Another user’s transmitter accidently programmed to
the system and in range of actiovation.
To correct this situation, the unauthorized transmitter
must be de-programmed from the system. All customer
RES transmitters must be available. Following the
transmitter programming instructions on page 11 of this
guide, when you reach step 5, you will program each
transmitter multiple times to fill all 8 memory slots. For
example, if 2 transmitters are available, program each
transmitter four (4) times. This will de-program any
unauthorized transmitter.
Does this solve the problem?
NO
2. Damage (usually caused by severe drop/shock) to the
RES transmitter that is allowing the button to stay
engaged or damage causing a self transmit.
I f this issue is the cause of the vehicle starting on it’s
own, a slight touch or rub of the bitton on the RES
transmitter would cause it to activate. If this is the case,
the recommended action is to replace the RES
transmitter P/N H001SFJ460.

guide, attempt to re-program the non-functioning RES
transmitter. Does this solve the problem?
YES
– Inspect the RES antenna / receiver harness for shorts or
damage.
– Inspect the RES antenna / receiver harness connectors
at the windshield mounted antenna and RES control
module for loose or damaged terminals.
NO
YES
* Replace the RES bi-directional transmitter(s) p/n
H001SFJ460.
NO
NO
* Replace the RES antenna / receiver and harness p/n
H001SFJ340.
Advanced Troubleshooting
– Do the RES transmitter batteries have sufficient charge?
Note: The 3V lithium batteries should register a 3V
charge while tested under load. Battery life under normal
usage is approximately 1 year.
– Transmitter range and bi-directional functionality will
deteriorate as batteries near end of life.
– Refer to the vehicle’s owner’s manual remote start
section for battery replacement.

The Vehicle’s Ignition Powers and The Horn Honks Two (2) Times When Activating the Remote Start
Function
-Hood Open
– Verify that the hood safety switch/bracket are properly
installed. Check for damage or misalignment of the
switch/bracket.
– The Yellow/Black wire (pin 9) of the 12-pin RES control
module connector should register ground when the hood
is open and register voltage or open when the hood is
closed.
– Brake Pedal Depressed
Check for damaged or inop brake switch in the vehicle or
connection issue between BIU and brake pedal switch.
The RES module reads this input through a CAN Bus
meassage and is likely a vehicle related issue rather
NO than a remote start component failure.
Advanced Troubleshooting
– The remote engine start system is detecting one of the
following safety shutdown inputs. This must be
corrected prior to restoring normal remote start
functionality.
1. Hood Open
2, Brake Pedal Depressed
– Ignition Key Sense Circuit Active
Verify that no ignition key is resting in the ignition cylinder.
Check for damaged or inop key sense switch in the
vehicle or connection issue between BIU and key sense
switch. The RES module reads this input through a CAN
Bus message and is likely a vehicle related issue rather
than a remote start component failure.
NO
– Service Mode Enabled
Service Mode prevents activation of the RES system while
the vehicle is being serviced.
To enable or disable service mode:
1. Sitting in the driver’s seat with all doors (including rear
gate) closed.
2. Verify that the transmission shifter is in the “park”
position.
3. Turn the ignition key to the “on” position.
4. Depress and hold the vehicle’s brake pedal.
5. Press the RES transmitter Start button three (3) times
pausing one (1) second between presses.
6. The systen will pause for one (1) second and the
vehicle’s horn will honk three (3) times to indicate
service mode has been enabled or one (1) time to
indicate service mode has been disabled.

and all doors and rear gate are closed. Press the START button twice within 3 seconds – The parking lights
should flash once, the horn should beep once then the vehicle should crank and start. Once started the parking
lights will turn on and stay on and the transmitter button will flash 2 times every 5-seconds signifying the vehicle
is started.
2. SHUT DOWN WITH DOOR OPENING – While the vehicle is running under remote engine start, wait at least five
(5) seconds and then confirm that all function’s (lock, unlock, etc.) operate properly on the FACTORY transmitter.
Once FACTORY transmitter functionality is confirmed press the UNLOCK button on FACTORY transmitter and
open any vehicle door or rear gate (5-door vehicle) The remote engine start system should shut down and the
transmitter button should flash three (3) times indicating the system has shut down.
3. ACTIVATION WITH DOOR OPEN – Make sure the key is removed from the ignition switch and the engine hood
is closed. Open the driver’s door, press the START button twice within 3 seconds – The vehicle’s ignition should
power momentarily and then shut down and the vehicle’s horn should honk and the parking lights should flash
a total of six (6) times. The vehicle should not start with any door or rear gate (5-door vehicle) opened.
4. BRAKE PEDAL SAFETY – While sitting in the vehicle with all doors and rear gate (trunk is not monitored on
sedans) closed, restart the vehicle using the remote engine starter, press the brake pedal – The vehicle should
shut off.
5. KEY-IN-SENSE – While sitting in the vehicle with all doors and rear gate closed, insert the ignition key into the
ignition switch but keep in off position, activate the remote engine start function – the vehicle should flash the
lights as if it is going to start but then the horn should beep twice and the remote engine starter does not
attempt to start the vehicle since it senses the key in the ignition.
6. HOOD SAFETY SWITCH – Open the engine hood and activate the remote engine start function – The horn
should beep two additional times signifying that hood safety switch is tripped and the vehicle will not start.
7. HEATER / AC FUNCTION – Insert the ignition key and turn the ignition to the run position, preset the vehicle’s
heater or air conditioning to the on position then turn the ignition off and remove the ignition key. Activate the
remote engine start system and verify that the heater or air conditioning turns on to the preset setting for
manual climate controlled vehicles and turns to the “Full Auto” setting for electronic climate control vehicles.
8. 15-MINUTE RUN TIME – Activate the remote engine start system and allow the system to run for the 15-minute
preset run time. The remote engine start system should shut the vehicle off in 15 minutes (+/- 10 seconds).
9. TRANSMITTER FUNCTIONALITY VERIFICATION – Activate the remote engine starter using both of the supplied
