The Sherkhan alarm system does not open from the key fob: how to get into the car?

Thanks to the almost obligatory installation of alarm systems in many car dealerships, “Scher Khan” brand alarms have become quite widespread, which means that a decent statistics of their malfunctions and “childhood diseases” have accumulated. Among these “glitches,” the undisputed leader is the refusal to respond to key fob commands, which occurs completely unpredictably and primarily on alarm systems of the Logicar family. This problem in most cases is a consequence of the “innate” defectiveness of the Magic Code communication protocols used in “Sherkhan” alarms, so every owner should be familiar with its symptoms and methods of “treatment”.

No response to Sherkhan Logicar remote control

The Scher-Khan Logicar line includes models such as A, B, 1, 2, 3 i, 4 i, 5 i, 6 i, 5iS, 6iS. It often happens that the alarm system malfunctions: the car does not close or open; there is no feedback on the key fob. There are several reasons for this:

• The remote control has become untied. Re-register the pager in the system memory according to the attached instructions;
• The battery has run out. Replace the battery and check the operation of the key fob;
• influence of external interference. Park the car in a different place;
• damage to the integrity of the loop. Check the cable with a multimeter. If possible, repair or replace it with a new one;
• transmitter failure. Contact the installation center.

Reasons and their solution

After checking the condition of the system and determining the cause of the malfunction, you can begin repairing the Scher-Khan Magicar 5. In all cases, you will need to carry out several mandatory manipulations, which differ for each problem.

Dead battery

The performance of the key fob is greatly influenced by the quality of the battery used. Therefore, experts recommend using batteries only from brands that are popular and have proven themselves well. In most cases, Model 5 Sherkhan Magikar refuses to respond to button presses. You can troubleshoot the problem by doing the following:

1. Carefully remove the battery.
2. Using a multimeter, check the voltage, which should not be less than 15% of the nominal value (3-6 V).
3. In case of underestimated indicators, the battery is disposed of.
4. Insert a new battery and close the compartment lid.
5. Check the alarm system for functionality.

Adverse external conditions

In some cases, there is no signal between the security system and the key fob due to external factors. Their presence depends on the proximity of a large enterprise or airport, the facilities of which create a powerful electromagnetic field. It creates radio interference and makes it impossible to transmit a signal from the remote control to the device.

Way to solve the problem:

1. First of all, bring the key fob as close as possible to the place where the security system receiver is installed.
2. After this, press the unlock button.
3. If it was not possible to remove the protection, you will have to tow the car. In some cases, it is enough to move it 200-500 m.

Software problems

If after pressing the keys on the control panel the alarm does not respond, then Sherkhan Magikar 5 will need to be reprogrammed. This work should be carried out in accordance with the operating instructions. Otherwise, you can only aggravate the problem and increase the likelihood of vehicle theft.

Eliminate the error as follows:

1. Open the car door and insert the key into the ignition.
2. There it is turned 3 times within 4 seconds.
3. Wait for the alarm flashes and proceed to programming.
4. Press the “I” button on the key fob.
5. After a few seconds, the car’s headlights will blink once, which will indicate the completion of the process of binding the remote control to the system.

Transmitter cable break

If the diagnostics show a break in the loop, then there is a high probability that the commands sent will not be transmitted to the security system. In some cases, this problem, which is typical for all Scher-Khan Logicar and Magicar models, completely disables the key fob.

Step-by-step repair instructions:

1. Using a multimeter and ohmmeter, check each wire inside the loop.
2. Most often, breakage occurs at bend points, so they are visually inspected.
3. Then they look for defects in another problem area - near the terminal block.
4. Having discovered a break, carefully solder the contact.
5. If this does not help, then replace the cable with a new one.

Transmitter malfunction

The most difficult problem arises if the alarm does not have feedback from the key fob. In such a situation, it will be difficult to solve the problem on your own. To do this, you need to have knowledge in the field of electronics and experience in such repairs.

If the transmitter breaks down, it is best to contact a service center, especially if the device is new and under warranty. Specialists will quickly detect the problem using special equipment and fix it.

If, after installing the Scher-Khan Magicar 5 alarm, the key fob does not see the car, then you need to accurately determine the cause of the malfunction. Having done this work correctly, you will be able to choose the most suitable repair option and fix the problem yourself.

Scher-Khan Magicar does not respond when pressing the key fob buttons

The Sherkhan Magikar anti-theft complex line includes models: A, B, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 7 S, 8 S, 6 mini, 10 mini. This is a reliable and popular anti-theft system among drivers, but it also malfunctions. It happens that the sound on the key fob disappears, or the pager works normally, but the car does not open. What are the reasons:

• The battery has run out. Insert a new one according to the marking;
• The keychain fell off. Reprogram the remote control in the anti-theft system memory;
• external interference. Park the car in a new place;
• cable damage. Replace the damaged cable with a new one;
• transmitter failure. Contact the specialists.

Characteristics

First, let's look at the characteristics of the Sherhan Logicar 4 car security system:

• duration of the alarm signal when the protection mode is turned on – 30 seconds;
• transmission of pulses between the central unit and the pager is carried out via a channel with a frequency of 433.92 MHz;
• control can be carried out by a pager, using the Valet key or using the CAN bus;
• protection of electrical circuits is carried out through safety devices, resistor elements, transistors, as well as diode components;
• the voltage of the electrical network from which the alarm is powered should be in the range of 9-18 volts;
• the amount of current consumed by the device when operating in standby mode ranges from 15 to 35 mA;
• The temperature range of the car alarm is from -40 to +85 degrees.

Features of Sherkhan Logicar 4:

1. Availability of feedback. Signaling belongs to the category of digital systems that allow the car owner to keep in touch with his car. Data transfer is carried out via two-way channels. When developing them, the manufacturer took into account all the features of the grabbers, so intercepting information during transmission is almost impossible.
2. The main feature of this model is the use of a built-in unit. This allows the complex to connect to digital CAN and K-line buses. These components are designed to control the operation of all electronics and electrical components in the car. The use of these tires prevents the need to cut into standard wiring.
3. The security complex is controlled using a standard transmitter. This model allows you to control the main options using the Slave option. It is possible to activate the protective mode with a functioning power unit. You can also configure the system so that the security mode is activated at a specified time.
4. The range of the main pager is up to 1500 meters. The manufacturer guarantees data transmission at this distance even in the presence of obstacles and interference. The key fob is equipped with four keys that allow you to set various programs and options. Using the display, you can promptly learn about malfunctions associated with the operation of the complex.
5. Possibility of automatic motor start. Thanks to this option, the alarm belongs to the category of elite systems. The use of automatic start provides not only the possibility of warming up and starting the internal combustion engine at a specified time. But also monitor the operation of the starter device using tachometer readings.

The New Elektronika channel talked about the features of the automatic start of the internal combustion engine of the Logicar 4 security complex.

Main functions

Main options of a security system with auto start:

1. Vehicle safety control. According to the user manual, the consumer can set the alert function with or without light signals. In the second case, this is called silent protection mode. Activation of the security mode can be carried out using a special password, which is entered using the Valet service key.
2. The operation of a car engine is monitored according to the readings given by the tachometer. Automatic activation and deactivation of the power unit is allowed at a specified time.
3. Self-diagnosis option. The control module is equipped with a special program that allows you to check the basic parameters of the security system and individual machine options. To check, you will need a computer or laptop, as well as a USB cable to connect to the module.
4. Condition monitoring in the car interior. You can configure the activation and deactivation times for interior lighting, the operation of power window closers, and the luggage and engine compartment locks.

Equipment

What is included in the security system kit:

1. Application and Installation Guide. It indicates all the nuances regarding installation, configuration of the complex and adjustment of sensitivity controllers.
2. Installation map, which includes an electrical diagram for connecting the main elements of the signaling system.
3. User's note.
4. Control unit Sherkhan Logicar 4.
5. Two pagers to control the complex. One of them is equipped with a display and works with feedback, that is, information about siren activation is transmitted to the remote control. The second key fob is additional; it is not equipped with a screen and its range is much lower.
6. A set of power connectors with wires for connecting all system components.
7. Limit switch for installation. The sensor is equipped with a wire for connection.
8. Powertrain locking relay with connected connector.
9. Siren.
10. Sticker for fixing the transceiver.

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages of Sherkhan Logicar 4 signaling:

1. Automatic engine start. This option works well on all car models.
2. Ease of use and installation. Thanks to detailed instructions for connection and installation, even an inexperienced car enthusiast will be able to install the complex.
3. Compactness. Thanks to the small size of the control unit, the module can be installed almost anywhere in the car interior.

In accordance with the reviews, we highlight the following disadvantages:

1. The security system often freezes. Car owners note that they have to press the pager buttons several times for the system to receive a signal.
2. Low range. In fact, the signal reception range is no more than 70 meters.
3. You can open it. Despite the fact that the manufacturer positions this product as one of the most reliable, a professional attacker will be able to hack the alarm.
4. The price does not correspond to the quality. At a cost of seven thousand rubles, consumers note that the manufacturer could work on the efficiency of the complex.

Sherkhan Mobicar remote control does not work: reasons why it loses connection

Scher-Khan Mobicar anti-theft equipment includes models: A, B, 1, 2. This is a modern and high-quality security system, but it happens that it also “glitches”: the badge does not work, the remote control does not receive feedback.

What is the problem and how to solve it.

1. The battery has exhausted its life. Replace the dead battery.
2. Key fob desynchronization. Reflash the remote control.
3. Interference from external devices. Move the car to another location.
4. Problems in the loop. Replace with a new one or repair it.
5. Damage to the alarm control unit. Contact an electrician immediately.

De-synchronization of "Sherkhan" alarm key fobs

The Magic Code protocol is inherently a classic one-way: in it, a communication session consists of a code message sent from the key fob to the alarm, and in the case of a command execution, a return message with status information sent from the alarm to the key fob. That is, there are no methods for unconditionally confirming the authenticity of the key fob, as is done, for example, in the dialog code.

Such communication methods are extremely vulnerable to code grabbers - having the opportunity to open the encryption key used to connect the key fob with the alarm system, you can at any time generate new code messages with commands that will be absolutely correct from the alarm point of view. To increase cryptographic strength, synchronization of the key fob and alarm was introduced in the Magic Code protocol: a command that was correctly encrypted, but with an incorrect synchronization tag, was not recognized as “legitimate”, and the alarm did not respond to it.

The disadvantage of such a solution is obvious: the protocol initially included a “bottleneck” in the form of the possibility of desynchronization of the key fob and the alarm itself. It is not for nothing that the instructions for alarms without a dialogue code include instructions not to press buttons outside the communication radius, which accelerates the probable loss of synchronization. However, for the Sherkhans of the Logicar family, it has become a common problem even in conditions where there are no objective prerequisites for loss of synchronization.

Scher-Khan Universe keychain does not see the car

The Sherkhan security system is represented by another line, this is Universal 1, 2, 3. It often happens that the key fob has stopped responding to your actions, the alarm is not disarmed or set. What to do in such a situation? Don’t despair, let’s look at the reasons for the most common remote control failures and how to fix them.

• battery low. Replace with a new one;
• The keychain came loose. Install the switch following the attached instructions;
• cable rupture. Repair it or replace it with a new one;
• exposure to radio waves. Park the car in another place;
• Universal control unit malfunction. Contact the service center specialists.

How can you get inside if the defense doesn’t respond?

With all the electronic components of the alarm system in full working order, this is quite simple to do. Depending on the car alarm model and its functionality, only a key fob and, in some cases, an individual driver tag are enough. In advanced alarm systems, one tag is enough. The alarm itself recognizes its owner and performs the entire range of programmed actions.

In other words, the primary link that uses all the electronic wisdom of a car alarm is the control, coded signal of a key fob or tag. For satellite alarms, this signal can also come from the mobile device of the car alarm owner. And only in exceptional cases, the secret “Valet” button will help you disarm the car yourself, if there are no other options. True, just get into it, and not use it.

How to unlock the key fob and turn off the alarm

For some reason the control panel has broken down and refuses to work. Car lock, how to remove it? Without a key fob, this can be done by following the steps.

1. Open the car door with the key. Alarm mode is activated.
2. Further actions must be completed in four seconds. Turn the ignition key to the “On” position three times. Then turn off the ignition.
3. If everything is done correctly, the system will exit the alarm.
4. The starter will unlock and the “Valet” mode will turn on, the call sensor will activate and light up. This is adequate system behavior with this shutdown method.

Disabling locks using the service button in the cabin

If there are no signs of unintentional activation of engine start interlocks, you can try to unlock the engine using the service mode. This mode is called Valet and is used to transfer the system to service mode. To activate, you need to insert the key into the ignition, turn on the ignition and then turn it off.

After this, you need to hold the service mode activation button for about 10-20 seconds. The result will be a notification using a special short signal, after which the signal lamp (indicator light, LED) will be constantly on. This method means disabling all security functions, which may also mean removing the engine locks. We add that after fixing the problem, it is necessary to activate the security functions of the alarm again.

Doors cannot be opened with a second remote control without a screen

One of the most common reasons for the key fob not working correctly is “unbinding” from the system. How to connect an additional remote control back? Follow a series of simple steps.

1. Turn the ignition on and off within four seconds. The lighting fixtures will blink once, confirming entry into the firmware menu.
2. Click for four seconds. key I on the key fob. The headlights will blink once. The system has memorized the remote control.
3. To exit the setup menu, do nothing for four seconds. You can use the keychain.

A situation where there is no connection between the key fob and the alarm can seriously spoil the car owner’s mood. Any attempt to open the car door with a key will result in activation of the alarm mode.

During the operation of the Sherkhan car alarm system, the reason why the feedback disappeared could be:

• dead battery;
• unfavorable external conditions;
• software problems;
• break of the transmitter cable or loss of contact on one of its sides;
• there is a malfunction in the transmitter.

Some malfunctions due to which there is no feedback from the key fob can be easily eliminated. In case of some breakdowns, you still cannot do without qualified assistance. In any case, if you find yourself in such a situation, the car owner should not panic.

The first step is to use the method of disabling the alarm without a key fob. All scher khan security systems provide the driver with this opportunity.

How to install?

The installation procedure is as follows:

1. Assemble all the alarm elements without installing them on the car. In accordance with the diagram, connect the components of the complex to the control unit, and then connect it to the battery. This is done to check the signaling. Having connected the system to the battery, activate and disable the protective function, check the main options. If everything is in order, we proceed to the next stage.
2. Disconnect the car's power supply. The installation of the security system is carried out with the on-board network turned off. Turn off the ignition and open the hood, use a wrench to loosen the alligator clip on the battery, and then disconnect it.
3. Install the control module. A criminal should not have access to it, so the unit is installed in a place hidden from the criminal. You can install the device behind the dashboard. We do not recommend installing a unit under the center console; this is the place criminals check first when breaking into a car. To install the module behind the dashboard, dismantle the trim on the steering column and unscrew the screws securing the control panel. Disconnect the wire connectors from it. In the free space, place the block and lock it in place. You can wrap the device with foam rubber to prevent it from being exposed to vibrations while the car is moving. The unit is attached to the car body or center console using self-tapping screws.
4. A siren is being installed under the hood. It is also advisable to place it in a hidden place. We recommend pointing the device's horn downwards or in the direction of travel of the car. The siren should not be installed in close proximity to the motor, since exposure to high temperatures will damage it.
5. Install the Valet service button. It can be used to activate emergency mode and emergency shutdown of the alarm. Therefore, it must be installed in a hidden place. You can disguise the button in the standard wiring by fixing it on the electrical circuit and wrapping it with electrical tape.
6. Install limit switches. The kit includes only one limit switch, so it can be installed on the hood or trunk lid. The remaining switches must be purchased additionally. To install them on the doors, you will have to make holes if they are not provided by the manufacturer. To do this, use a drill with a cutter. To install the switches, it is necessary to remove the door trim, handles and speakers.
7. Remove the ignition switch trim and install the engine lock relay. The device is connected in accordance with the diagram.
8. The sensitivity sensor is installed inside the car. For installation, it is advisable to choose a location in the central part of the body. You can use a partition separating the car interior and the engine compartment. This device will be responsible for the timely operation of the siren, so setting its reaction is important for the complex as a whole. After installation and connection, adjust the operation of the controller.

Problems that are easy to fix

The most common reason why the feedback does not work is a dead battery in the key fob. In this case it is necessary:

• Make sure that there are problems with only one key fob. To do this, use a second key fob, for example an optional one, to check the functionality of the car alarm.
• Remove the battery.
• If you have a multimeter, check the voltage. For example, in Sherkhan Magikar 7, an AAA battery with a nominal voltage of 1.5 V is installed in the main key fob. In the optional key fob, Sherkhan 7 has two CR2025 batteries with a total voltage of 6 V. A voltage of 15% lower than the nominal value is allowed.
• Replace the battery and check operation.

Since control signals are transmitted over a radio channel, there may be interference that can jam communications. In this case, you need to stop parking the car in a place where there is radio interference.

You should also show increased attentiveness to the safety of the iron horse. The presence of radio interference indicates that the key fob signals may be read by intruders.

Independent troubleshooting of alarm systems

• It is often possible to fix the malfunction and remove the engine lock yourself if you can detect blown fuses. This problem often leads to malfunctions of the alarm system. The fuses must be checked; if a problematic element is detected, the blown fuse must be replaced with a known good one.
• Malfunctions in the operation of the alarm can also be associated with insufficient battery charge or loose terminals on the battery contacts. In this case, the battery is still able to sluggishly crank the starter, but the engine blocking may already work and further prevent the engine from starting.

• Another step is to check the limit switches (limit switches), which are located under the hood and trunk lid. Moisture ingress or oxidation of the limit switch often causes an incorrect signal to the alarm control unit, which leads to engine blocking. Please note that unprofessional installation of alarms and limit switches, as well as improper engine washing can lead to malfunctions of electrical equipment.

Solving a software problem

A situation where there is no feedback on the Sherkhan alarm system may occur due to a software error. In this case, the security system simply does not see the key fob. To eliminate the malfunction, it is necessary to program the key fob into the memory of the processor unit. For example, in Sherkhan 5 this can be done following the sequence:

• Turn the ignition key three times within four seconds.
• Wait until the alarm flashes once. This will confirm successful entry into programming mode.
• Press key I on the key fob. The time interval from the emergency flashing should not exceed four seconds.
• A single alarm flash will indicate that the key fob has been recorded in the memory of the processor module.

If during step three you do not meet the four-second interval, the security system will exit programming, activating the “Valet” mode.

Engine blocking with car alarm

If there are installed anti-theft systems, electrical equipment is responsible for blocking the engine start. Immobilizers or car alarms may be faulty and cause constant or occasional failures during operation.

It should be added that the severity of the problem will depend not on the specific model or brand of car, but on the complexity of the installed anti-theft security system.

Accidental activation of the engine lock function

First of all, carefully study the displayed icons on the alarm key fob. A common cause of blocking is accidental activation of additional functions. It is also necessary to monitor the readings of the LED indicator light (if equipped) in the vehicle interior, which serves as a light indicator of the alarm status. Flashing LED lamps in most cases indicate that the anti-theft function of the immobilizer is activated in the menu.

If, after turning the key in the lock and turning on the ignition, the warning lamp blinks frequently (for example, the StarLine car alarm) before starting the engine, and a pictogram with the inscription “immo” is displayed on the key fob itself:

1. One way to solve the problem is to remove the key from the lock, after which you just need to press the button to open the central door lock on the key fob.
2. You can also get out of the car, set the alarm to security mode, then disarm it and then start the engine.

In other words, you need to make sure that the alarm operates in the normal mode that is familiar to the owner. Up to 30% of cases of engine start blocking by alarms occur due to accidental changes in program settings. The driver’s task is to disable all unnecessary functions in the settings.

Using the StarLine alarm as an example, let us note that this system has the option of “two-stage” unlocking. Activation of the function may occur accidentally; a separate icon will light up on the key fob screen. To turn it off, you must hold down button 3 on the key fob. The key fob will emit two beeps, after which button 3 is pressed once again. Then button 1 is pressed for a few seconds, then the security functions are removed;

Loop break

If one of the wires in the loop breaks, the execution of some commands sent from the remote control may be lost. Less often, after a connection break, there is no connection with the key fob completely. Correcting the situation requires some electrical ability.

The first step is to test each wire inside the loop using a multimeter or ohmmeter. Most often, a break occurs at the bend or near the terminal block. After detecting damage, you need to solder the broken contact or replace the cable with a new one.

Let's sum it up

Taking into account the above information, it becomes clear that the main reasons for alarm failure can be associated with both breakdowns and software failures. The system may also not work stably if there are power problems, the battery is in a faulty condition, etc.

We will also add that if the alarm system is new (under warranty) and/or additional elements have recently been installed in the car, it is better to refuse to attempt repairs yourself. In this case, you must immediately file a claim with the center where the security or anti-theft system or other equipment was installed.

Subscribe so you don't miss anything important

The alarm does not open from the Sherkhan key fob? Change the power source in the control panel, move it closer to the receiving device, or connect a new device. If this does not help, open the car in emergency mode, and then look for the problem. This could be a fuse, system failure, or mechanical failure. Below we will consider different situations why the car does not open. First, the alarm is turned off, and the doors remain closed with the central lock. The second is that the security system does not work and the locks do not open.

Symptoms and diagnostics

Before you begin to independently repair the security system, you must correctly identify the cause of the malfunction. Thanks to this, it will be possible to find a way out of the current situation and quickly resolve the problem.

In most cases, vehicle owners choose the Magicar Scher-Khan 5, 6, 7, 8 alarm system. These device models may experience problems with pressing individual keys. The main sign of such a failure will be the lack of response of the security system to the actions of the car owner. In some situations, the remote control may refuse to work at all. A similar thing happens if the Logicar alarm does not respond to button presses.

Diagnostic procedure:

1. The first step is to conduct a visual inspection of the device and identify defects.
2. Then they check the operation of the remote control under various settings.
3. Similar actions are carried out for the additional key fob, which is included in the equipment package.
4. If the second control panel does not work, then disassemble it.
5. After removing the housing, check the integrity of all parts and the strength of the connections.
6. Remove accumulated dirt and dust from the inside of the key fob.
7. If there are no positive changes, check the functionality of the security system.

Reasons why the car does not open

Before performing any steps, you need to figure out why the Sherkhan alarm system does not open the car. There could be several explanations for this:

1. The battery is low, which is why the remote control does not provide the required signal.
2. Interference due to which the car does not open with the Sherkhan alarm key fob.
3. Failure of the central locking system and the drive that controls the system.
4. Failure of one of the security system modules.
5. Failure to synchronize the key fob with the main unit.
6. Physical damage to the remote control requiring repair.

Above are the main reasons why the Sherkhan alarm key fob does not open the car. Taking this into account, it is necessary to act when troubleshooting.

Tips and tricks

If attempts to remove engine locks and start the engine are unsuccessful, then there is a high probability of a serious malfunction or failure of individual alarm elements. The result is random activation of engine locks, which cannot be disabled using standard methods. The faulty car must be taken to a service station, as removing the lock will require professional intervention.

The specified delivery can be carried out by tow truck. Another affordable way is to call an auto electrician who works on-site. Note that the final costs of paying for the service of on-site engine unlocking, disabling the car alarm, emergency opening of locks, etc. often turn out to be less than delivering the car to a service center by tow truck and paying for repairs at a technical center.

What to do if the car does not open and the alarm is removed

The most confusing situation is when the security system responds to commands from the key fob, but the vehicle doors remain closed. If the alarm is cleared but Scher Khan does not open the doors, the following steps may be required:

• Check the battery charge. Perhaps the voltage on the battery is not enough to operate the drive. As a result, the door (one or all) does not open from the Sherkhan key fob. If under load the power source voltage drops below 12 V, it needs to be charged.

• Check fuse and wiring. Another reason why Sherkhan does not open the doors with the alarm key fob is damage to the fuse. Find the fuse link through which voltage is supplied to the lock drive and replace it. If the fuse is intact, inspect the wiring for damage or short circuits.
• Make sure that the drive responsible for opening/closing the doors is in good working order. Try supplying it with 12 V voltage directly from the battery. If the drive operates normally, check the wiring. Pay attention to the circuit through which the command to open the doors is given.

Alarm block.

In order to check the security system unit, we start with the power supply and optimal voltage on the unit. Let's check whether current flows from the ignition to the block and turn off the block along with the ignition. We will also scan all the wires, right down to the block itself. If everything is in working order, open the anti-theft system block and examine it for defects, just as we did with the key fob. After checking for defects, we install it in place. It will be important to check the presence of a signal from the key fob on the “brain” of the unit. In this case, its strength is not so important, the main thing is to make sure of its presence. If, after the operations performed, the remote control does not interact with the unit, most likely there is a need to purchase a working remote control or change the alarm system.

The car will not open and the alarm will not be removed

The situation is more complicated when the Sherkhan alarm key fob does not open the car and the alarm does not respond to the command. Various steps may be required here, which we will discuss in more detail.

Replace the battery

In a situation where the Sherkhan 5 or other model key fob does not open the car, start by replacing the battery. If the power supply in the remote control is low, the device will not issue commands or the signal will be too weak. After replacing the battery, check again whether the device works or not.

Replace the fuse

To solve the problem when the alarm is not removed from the Sherkhan key fob, it may be necessary to replace the alarm fuse. Find it in the main unit, taking into account the security system diagram. To find a fuse insert, you may need to consult the specialists who installed the system.

Eliminate the source of interference

A common reason why Sherkhan Magikar 10 or another model does not open from the key fob is the negative effect of electromagnetic interference. This problem may occur near large shopping centers, power plants, or other places with sources of interference. If it is not possible to move the machine to another location, move the remote control as close as possible to the receiving antenna. After that, press the alarm disarm button and check whether the car opens with the Sherkhan key fob or not.

Please note that this situation may also cause other problems. For example, the car may not start.

Tie the keychain

One of the explanations why the Sherkhan Majikar 7 alarm system does not open the doors is that the key fob is unfastened. In this case, you need to tie up the remote control. According to the rules, this option is available for three devices. The work can be done with or without a PIN.

Without PIN:

1. Within 4 seconds, turn the ignition switch three times from the on to the off position.
2. Turn off the ignition.
3. Within the next four seconds, press button I on the programmable remote control.
4. Program the second and third remote control, if necessary.

WITH PIN:

• Follow the first two steps of the instructions discussed above.
• Within four seconds, turn the key in the lock from the off to on position a number of times, taking into account the first digit.
• Repeat the second step taking into account the remaining PIN digits.
• When entered correctly, press button I on the programmable remote control.
• Program the remaining key fobs.

After programming is completed, check whether the alarm opens after issuing a command from the Sherkhan key fob or not.

Emergency open the car and disable the security system

If the steps discussed above did not produce results, and the car still does not open when a command is given from the Sherkhan key fob, an emergency shutdown of the system may be required. There are two ways available here - with or without a PIN.

Without PIN:

1. Open the locks with the key and ignore the alarm.
2. Within four seconds, turn the key three times from OFF to ON.
3. Turn off the ignition.

After four seconds, the alarm turns off and goes into Valet mode. The machine opens and can be used as usual.

WITH PIN:

• Follow the three steps described above.
• Within four seconds, turn the ignition key from OFF to ON four times. Do this taking into account the first digit of the PIN.
• Repeat the second step for the remaining digits of the PIN code.

If the code is entered correctly, the Sherkhan alarm should turn off and it will be possible to start. After this, repairs, replacement of the key fob (or the signaling system as a whole) or programming may be required.

Now you know why the Sherkhan alarm system with or without auto start does not open the car from the key fob. This knowledge allows you to figure out what to do next to restore performance. Note that the considered actions are identical for many systems, for example, Magikar, Logikar 3 and others. For more accurate information, you may need to read the instructions.

The Sherkhan Magikar alarm system is not armed? Change the batteries in the key fob, replace the fuse, re-associate the remote control or eliminate interference. As a last resort, reset to factory settings or contact a service station for specialist help. Below we will look at what could be causing the problem and how to fix it on your own.

If there is no reaction from the defense

Just as an unloaded gun hanging on the wall shoots, a seemingly serviceable key fob refuses to disarm the car. In other words, the perplexed driver will have to find out for himself the reason for the absence of a coded signal or the reluctance of other car alarm components to respond to it. Sometimes it is not difficult to fix this malfunction with your own hands, but sometimes repair is simply impossible. What to do if the alarm does not recognize the key fob:

• A simple DIY repair will involve simply changing the battery inside. It’s not difficult to understand what to do;
• The main thing here is to choose the right battery or “pill” with the current expiration date;
• do not confuse the declared polarity during such repairs;
• if there is no new battery in the foreseeable vicinity, you can try to revive the old one yourself by slightly deforming it;
• The functionality of the key fob in this case can be checked by the glow of its LED and how the car alarm itself reacts to the key fob;
• if the previous key fob repair option did not give positive results, then you can use an auxiliary key fob without a display;
• if the alarm system begins to respond normally to the key fob signal, then you can repair the main key fob yourself at home in a calm environment;
• After opening it for repair, you should very carefully inspect all the switching wiring. And especially in the area of ​​the battery;
• If the repair results are negative, you will have to purchase a new key fob yourself. There have been no problems with their purchase for a long time;
• Repairs of similar complexity will involve the ability to eliminate harmful interference. It’s hard to even imagine how many there could be. Especially if there is an industrial facility, shopping or exhibition center nearby;
• It is unlikely that you will be able to simply roll the car to the side - the car alarm will go off with all the ensuing consequences;
• but it would be quite reasonable to use the “Valet” function of the car alarm. To the extent that you can carry out the necessary repairs at the nearest alarm service center.

Important: the presence of spare batteries, as well as an additional key fob, will greatly simplify the life of the car owner in the above repair cases.

What to do if the Magikar alarm is not armed

Knowing why Sherkhan Magikar 10 does not arm, you can take steps to eliminate the problem. When solving a problem, it is necessary to act, starting from simple steps to more complex ones that require intervention in design features.

Change power sources

In a situation where the Sherkhan Magikar alarm is not armed, change the batteries in the key fob. Most often the problem is associated with a decrease in charge level. When the signal deteriorates, the remote control is not enough to communicate with the main antenna, and pressing itself does not produce any result. After replacing the battery, check whether the security system is armed or not.

Bring the key fob to the antenna

A common reason why the Sherkhan M10 does not arm itself is the presence of interference, which is why the central unit does not receive a signal from the remote control. To resolve the situation, move the car to another location or move the key fob closer to the receiving antenna. In most cases, this action allows you to return the device to functionality.

Pair the remote control again

Often the Sherkhan alarm system does not arm itself due to the key fob being unlinked. To solve the problem, try programming the same or a new remote control.

The security system allows you to connect up to three control devices. For programming you will need a PIN code, which by default is “1111”.

Take the following steps:

1. Disable the Sherkhan Magikar alarm.
2. Turn on the ignition and press the button on the sensor housing for two seconds.
3. Press the sensor key for five seconds to enter the PIN code.
4. Within four seconds, press the sensor key the number of times corresponding to the first digit of the code. Pause between presses for less than 1.5 seconds. After four seconds, the emergency light lights up once and confirms the entry of the first digit, and the light on the sensor begins to flash quickly blue.
5. Within four seconds, press the key the number of times corresponding to the second digit of the code. The time between presses should be 1.5 s. After four seconds, the alarm lights come on, confirming the entry of the second digit.
6. Repeat similar steps for the third and fourth digits of the PIN.

Please note that if you have previously programmed an individual code, you must enter it.

Reset the system to factory defaults

Another step to solve the problem if the Sherkhan alarm system is not armed is to return the system to factory settings. In this case, all previously set parameters on the security system are reset and will need to be programmed again. You can do this yourself using a key fob or seek help from specialists at a service station.

To reset Sherkhan Magikar, if it is not armed, do the following:

• Disarm the alarm and turn off the ignition.
• Press buttons I and IV simultaneously for two seconds.

• Wait for one short signal and the emergency lights flash.
• Press button III of the remote control three times with a short siren signal and an emergency light flash.

• Wait for the siren to sound three times and the same number of light flashes.

After completing these steps, the device is reset to factory settings, after which you need to program it again, taking into account the assigned tasks.

Other steps if Magikar is not armed

Above are the basic steps of what to do if the Sherkhan Magikar alarm system is not armed. In the most difficult cases, other actions may be required:

1. Repair or replace the antenna if it becomes worn.
2. Reflash the software. It is unlikely that you will be able to do this on your own.
3. Check the central alarm unit. If it breaks down, it is no longer able to receive signals. Evidence of damage to the unit is the loss of previously existing settings, inadequate reactions to key fob commands, and self-shutdown.
4. Inspect the engine lock relay. To check, try jumping the contacts if you have the appropriate experience. There may also be difficulties with the contact group, which needs to be checked.
5. Replace the fuse. Perhaps the Sherkhan Magikar alarm is not armed due to damage to the fuse insert.
6. Pay attention to the drive that closes the locks. It may be damaged, causing the machine to not close normally.

Now you know why the Sherkhan Magikar alarm system is not armed, and what actions can help restore its operation. Start by checking the battery and fuse. Try moving the key fob closer to the antenna or check the operation of the drive. If these steps do not work, you may need to program a new remote or take it to a repair shop for repairs.

In the comments, share if you have ever encountered a problem when Sherkhan Magikar is not armed, and how you managed to solve it.

Electronic protection device

To a first approximation, any alarm system is a complex of interconnected electronic devices. The malfunction of any of them, of course, leads to the loss of the function intended only for it and, in general, the entire car alarm ceases to be functional. The list of such electronic components most often looks like this:

• remote control - key fob. It is a miniature mobile phone. Its task is to send an encoded radio signal to the car alarm receiving antenna. The functions of supplying a control signal can be performed by the driver’s individual tag (card), the secret “Valet” button, a mobile phone, the ignition key; it can be made with or without a display;
• it comes with both one-way and two-way communication;
• with its help, knowing how and what to do, you can program some functions of the alarm system installed on the machine;

Important: in addition to the listed components, various sources of their power supply will also have an indirect effect on the performance of the alarm system. These are standard batteries and rechargeable batteries that you can install yourself into key fobs, individual tags, and GPS/GSM communication beacons. Even the main car battery can cause the entire car alarm to malfunction.

When autostarting, the ignition turns on but the starter does not turn the sherkhan

I inherited Megan with the Sherkhan MK5 alarm system and I don’t understand what:

1. The autostart does not start the car the first time, only the ignition turns on, but the starter does not turn. At the same time, the key fob receives a response stating that the car is started. You make a second try and it starts

2. The key fob is tormented by self-activation, while there are no messages on it, only the backlight turns on and a sound signal plays.

3. In addition to these alarms, for some reason the driver call signal is activated on the key fob (the sensitivity sensor is at the minimum level, there is no one near the car) and continues to beep until you do anything.

What should I do and can this be treated? Thank you!

You have Valet mode enabled - disable it. Please see page 31 of the instruction manual.

When you turn on the Valet mode (To do this, press the buttons (I+III) of the key fob for 2 seconds) -

LED INDICATOR: Constantly lit DISPLAY: “ZZZZ”

Switching off is done in the same way - press the buttons (I+III) of the key fob for 2 seconds.

Good afternoon! I apologize for writing in a personal message and not in the topic. I’m afraid that no one will respond. and I urgently need advice. I'm from Nizhnevartovsk. On January 3, frosts are expected to be below thirty. My Sherkhan Magikar 5 was acting up. I set the alarm, and after half an hour the emergency alarm goes off. All doors are locked, the hood and trunk are closed. What could be the reason? Why am I asking you for advice? After browsing the forum, I came to the conclusion that you are a regular here and in this matter like a duck to water. Thank you in advance, I will be very grateful to you if you answer. Sincerely, A.A,

I wanted to send it to a user named “OLD MAN” and got into the topic.

, dismantle this device, the temperature sensor of which is IN THE PASSENGER! This time. It does not protect persons holding the CODE GRABEER from entering the vehicle! That's two. It does not shine with particular reliability, especially in conditions of a SHARP CONTINENTAL climate (it “loses” the key fobs, sometimes “makes you happy” with false alarms, sometimes the blocking circuit activates on the move and further, further, further). That's three. Like a hungry TIGER it eats the battery under the hood, not meeting the GOST requirements for additional consumption. That's four. And then there are FIVE, SIX. SEVEN. I DO NOT INSTALL Sherkhans, I DO NOT TREAT, I DO NOT CUSTOMIZE. Only AMPUTATIONS for installing something a) more resistant to at least electronic hacking, b) technically reliable, c) modest in consumption.

You are in the wrong place with your question. I read the TIGERS instructions a long time ago. I have already forgotten not only their contents (not CONTENT), but also when it was last time.

Keychain - communicator

The main key fob supplied with the kit has the following operating features:

• thanks to the four-button circuit, it is possible to control all functions of the system;
• the signal from the key fob is encoded using a special Magic Code scheme, which prevents interception and recording;
• built-in backlit display provides visual display of all operations;
• when working with the system, the key fob confirms commands with a sound or vibration signal;
• Additional information from sensors can be displayed on the screen;
• the key fob is the main means for programming automatic start;
• The key fob is used to configure system parameters.

After unpacking and installing the system on the car, you need to bring the main key fob into working condition. To do this, you will need to remove the dielectric gasket installed between the contact pads of the battery and the key fob power circuit.

1. Open the battery compartment cover. To do this, open the latch and slide the cover to the bottom of the key fob.
2. Remove the battery from the compartment.
3. Remove the gasket located along the entire length of the element.
4. Return the battery locally, observing the polarity of the installation, which is shown on the sticker. If there is no marking, remember that the negative pole of the battery is always directed towards the antenna of the Sherkhan Magikar key fob.
5. Close the lid and snap the latch.
