View Full Version : Clifford intellstart on manual gearbox car ?
Right has anyone got a intellstart with manual gearbox if so how can you stop the engine starting in gear:taped: had a very close call today as the car started and drove away with me running behind :D
The intellstart was fitted when my car was a auto so no probs until now.

I thought you have to leave it running on turbo timer for it to set?
Knock knock...... whose there?......... who cares
I have a separate hks turbo timer. sometimes on short journeys i normally turn the engine off before leaving and force of habit a park in gear. but if a press the clifford keyfob to start ,it starts the engine. just wondering if there is a way to stop it starting when in gear.
Have you got me on ignore or something? I just told you.

i do hear you honest :D it seems to me that you were explaning the use of the turbo timer ? hence leaving the engine running. so are you saying that if the settings are altered somehow it will stop it starting in gear.?
I explained the safety feature in the clifford alarm system. There is no switch to tell the alarm the car is in gear. I was not explaining the turbo timer to you.
When i was having mine fitted he asked if i wanted it in auto mode. I said no as i had already cracked my bumper on one of my garden posts. He then described what happens in manual mode.

cool i'll just have the intellstart option switched off better to be safe than sorry:)
Well, if your taking it in and getting it plugged in you are as well changing it to manual mode. I think its just a case of changing one of the options via laptop.
install clifford software on Laptop, hook up laptop to car and set transmission to Manual
so when car is on you press ** on key fob to activate intellistart (Remove key car stay running so u cant have it on gear) when you arm alarm car turns off, now intellistart is activated
Press * to start car
install clifford software on Laptop, hook up laptop to car and set transmission to Manual
so when car is on you press ** on key fob to activate intellistart (Remove key car stay running so u cant have it on gear) when you arm alarm car turns off
Press * to start car
Just as a note, it may not be **. It will be the combination that was set during installation. Mine is a different combo.

Irs setup like that on 650MK2, sure if he looks at his manual it should say
Mines is set up as boot and * on a 650mk1
Thats not on the 5 button remote though, just the 4 button.
I have the software and lead BUT the damm thing is not vista friendly:( will not work on my laptop.

i only have to press the * button once for the engine to start.
Thats not what he meant. I only have to press it once to activate it also.
When you are in the car and you are telling the car to enter remote start mode you have to press a button combo.
I think i'll stick to turning spanners this is giving me a headache.
Ok read carefully.
Lets say for example the combination is in fact **
You drive up to your home
while the car is still turning over you press **
you take your key out of the ignition
the car will still be running
you get out of the car (this will guarantee you are in neutral)
you close your door
you press the alarm arm button
the car will cut out and the alarm will arm
when you want the car to remote start you press *
job done.

When you are sitting in your car with engine on you want to activate IntelliStart for later
1)with a 650 MK2 you press ** on key fob while keys are in ignition and engine on
2)Remove Keys from ignition (Engine stays running, safety feature so car isnt in gear)
3) get out of car
4) Alarm car

if You forgot something and disarm car intellistart will also be disarmed just incase you put car in gear while you where inside, to arm go through sequence again as stated above
