Default Lmc5

I purchased this and installed it the car works now ... kind of. I still get the message "Pull key wait 10 seconds" car will not run shuts off at 2 mph however, if I do as instructed car works fine. Have I missed a step with the installation of the LMC5? Read through the instructions again and haven't found a misstep.

Look up the "LMC5 Brown Wire Mod". Richard at ComplianceParts can help you further if you don't understand the steps. It often eliminates the "Pull Key" message with LMC5 installed.

Agree with velocity. Many cars respond a bit different and if you are getting the Pull key frequently-call Richard. The Brn wire mod may help you out. I still get the pull key as well but not often. It has been a couple months now..

I had the brown wire issue with my 2001; I watched the Youtube instead of reading the instructions and the brown wire issue is not included on the Youtube.

You will have to do the BWMod--its easy and it works--no more "pull key' message--lmc5 brown wire controls the timing issue with the BCM--if your unit doesnt have a brown wire, than you have the old version and will need the 5 wire unit--keep us informed--

Thanks guys. I do have the brown wire and will connect it this evening. One more question, will this also eliminate the 2 mph shut off?

With BW mod--You wont see any messages again-thus no fuel-cutoff-You dont need a tuner to raise mph-

I think you'd have no problem finding them if you'd simply try to help yourself.
