Why it doesn't work and what to do
If all setup steps were completed according to the instructions, autostart on Sherkhan Magikar 5 always works clearly according to the established scheme. If a failure occurs, and after setting up automatic startup, the system does not perform the necessary actions, you need to look for the reason. To do this, you don’t have to contact a service center; you can do it yourself:
- If the motorist has made a reservation, but the system does not activate, the contacts of the safety device should be checked. The reason for the breakdown of the Sherkhan alarm system may be their oxidation. The safety device is located in the main module power supply circuit.
- Incorrect operation of the standard blocker. In the control relay, you need to check the contact elements for sticking.
- Continuous activity of the diode element. Such a breakdown may occur due to the activated Valet service mode. To resume operation of the Sherkhan signaling, it is necessary to disable the service mode.
- Autorun functions are not configured correctly. To solve this problem, you can use a reset of all user settings to factory settings.
In addition, errors in the operation of the device may occur for the following reasons:
- Often the problem is that when autostarting, the engine stops working after only 1-2 minutes. In this case, you can start everything using the key in standard mode. The cause of such failures is most often a breakdown of the five-pin relay. You can find this part in the microprocessor module.
- The battery is in a discharged state. If this problem is resolved, the launch will be activated.
- Low temperature. In some cases, auto start is blocked due to critical frost outside the vehicle window.
- Malfunction of some machine parts that are responsible for activating the motor.
To reconfigure the start of the Sherkhan Magikar 5 alarm, the manufacturer suggests resetting all settings to factory settings. The system has 2 menus (1 and 2):
- Includes options such as door open warning, panic mode and other security alarm functions.
- Adjustment of auto start time, duration of warming up of the car.
If you need to get rid of user-set autorun settings, you need to reset menu number 2 functions to factory settings. Do this in the following order:
- You should enter programming mode. For this purpose, press buttons 4 and 1 for 2 seconds. After this action, the sound of a siren should be heard, and the alarm system will give 1 light signal. If this happens, then the user did everything correctly and step 1 is completed.
- Key 3 is briefly pressed 3 times. After each press there is a siren sound and a light signal.
After completing these steps, all user settings will be deleted, and the Sherhan Magicar 5 autostart options will be returned to factory settings.
Sometimes a car owner is unable to configure the auto-start of the Sherkhan Magikar 5 alarm. This may occur due to insufficient knowledge. It happens that it is not possible to troubleshoot problems in the Scher Khan alarm system that is already turned on. In both cases, it is better to contact a service center for help. A team of professionals will be able to identify and fix the breakdown as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Good day everyone. The cold weather is coming soon and I decided to take care of the machine and my comfort. Alarm with auto start and start functions based on time, temperature and auto start based on on-board voltage, which made me very happy. The alarm was installed at the service center, and at the same time the wires from the recorder and radar were removed.
How to disable the option for summer
Many car owners ask how to disable the Sherkhan 5 autostart for a certain period of time, that is, turn it off for a month, two or more. In this case, it is necessary to remove any reservation for automatic start. To do this, you need to set function 1-16 to value 3. The action algorithm is as follows:
- Press buttons I and II simultaneously.
- Click on the IV button 16 times.
- After each press, make sure that the signal passes through, the siren sounds and the sound does not disappear.
- Wait for the siren to sound frequently (16 times), and then press III.
Make sure all doors are closed when performing this work. Otherwise, you will not be able to disable autorun on Sherkhan Magikar, and the FAIL error will appear.
Now you know how to disable autostart of Scher Khan Magicar remotely, by temperature or by a set timer. Please note that the algorithm of actions may differ slightly on different models, so for accurate data, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
