Default Installed COH CL Bypass Pull Key Wait 10 Sec. Message

Installed Corvettes of Houston column lock bypass kit. Got the pull key wait 10 seconds message. Pulled key, waited, everything seems ok now. Anything to be concerned about?

If it just happened the first time, I wouldnt worry about it. If it happens again, that would be strange however.

Guys, the way Column lock bypasses work, its like 1 bit of memory. It can be off or on. Now, when you first hook it up, the car is expecting a certain value by default. If COH forgot to "set" the bit before they shipped it, the first time you use it, it'll set the bit properly and from that point on, it will work flawlessly. The only downside to it is you'll get the pull key msg the very first time.

So, if it only happens that very first time, there is absolutly nothing to worry about. Its like a lightswitch and they just forgot to switch it on before they sent it.
