Some vehicles require that in order to start with the push button ignition, that the the brake pedal is pressed. If outfitted with a remote start, then upon entering the car (after being remotely started) that you must step on the brake AND press the start button again. Otherwise, the car will simply shut off when shifting out of park. You may see lights prompting you to do this after remotely starting. What year, make and model car is this?

aperently it was stopped in gear or parked in gear..while detailing, you hit the keyless start button and it responded ... before doing another car..be absolutely sure its in park or neutral and shut off entirely..

is this a stock option?
or aftermarket added product.>
we dont know.

Hi, don't know if you figured it out, but I just (literally 10 minutes ago) calibrated the compass on my 2001 LandCruiser Prado by doing the following:

- Press the up and down arrows together until the inclinometer starts to blink.
- Then press the "Mode" button to switch to compass. The compass should start to blink.
- Drive your car in a 360 degree circle until the compass stops blinking.
- And that's about it.

Even though this is an old question I wanted to post the answer because I've been looking at this issue for a year and haven't found the solution online.

Please note that this page http://www.tlocuk.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?p=2302&sid=327bc81ab3b0160e82d7863b3e6417f5 pointed me in the right direction although the instructions there caused the inclinometer to be re-calibrated in my car. I had to tinker around and I figured out that if I pressed "mode", it switched to compass calibration.

1. Start with the following conditions: you are in the vehicle a. Key is out of the ignition
b. Drive door is open ( all other doors are closed)
c. Driver door is unlocked (other door locks don't matter)
2. Insert the key into the ignition (don't turn it) and pull it out.
3. Perform these steps within 40 seconds: a. Cycle the power locks 5 times. Use an even pace and try
to go relatively fast. b. Close, then open the drivers door.
4. Perform these steps within 40 seconds: a. Cycle the power locks 5 times (same as before).
b. Turn the ignition to ON then back to OFF.
c. Turn the ignition to ON then back to OFF.
d. Remove the key from the ignition.
5. Within 3 seconds, the power door locks should cycle (automatically)
indicating successful entry into programming mode. Return to step 1
if the locks do not cycle at this point.
6. Perform these steps within 40 seconds: a. Press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the transmitter
simultaneously for 1 second. b. Immediately after letting go of the lock and unlock buttons,
press the lock button by itself and hold for 2 seconds.
Within 3 seconds, the door locks should cycle ( LOCK then
UNLOCK) once-- indicating successful programming. If
the door locks don't cycle, or cycle twice. Repeat steps
6a and 6b--this remote has not been accepted. c. Repeat steps 6a and 6b for EACH transmitter that will
operate the vehicle. Including any old transmitters.
7. Close the driver door.
Good luck and hope this helps.

YOUR PROBLEM SOUNDS LIKE THE 3--VOLT BATTERY IN THE REMOTE AND AFTER REPLACING IT TURN KEY ON AND OFF 5 TIMES AND PRESS ONE OF THE BUTTONS ON THE REMOTE TO RESET IT

This is the procedure for a reprogram of the remote's from the factory service manual, if it doesn't work then u may have a receiver issue.

I've been resetting pajero's compasses but try to get to an area where you can do 360 degrees turns (empty car parks, ) press the reset button and make 2 complete 360 turns slowly and normally this should set the compass bearing.
Let us know how you get on. Cheers.

From the manual: First find the reset button, located below the handbrake (emergency brake) lever. The button has an "exclamation mark in a tyre" symbol.

Make sure the pressures in all tyres are what you want them to be. 35psi all 'round is good for sporty driving.

Engine off. Turn ignition to the second position (ON) but don't start the engine.

Keep the re-set button pressed until the flat tyre indicator light on the dashboard COMES ON for several seconds.

Start the engine, and drive the car normally for several minutes. This will re-set the indicator to whatever pressures you have in the tyres. Hope this helps!!
