1. Introduction
This manual provides detailed instructions for the installation and operation of the EASYGUARD ES002-P5 Push Start Button Kit. This system is designed to upgrade your vehicle with a push-button engine start/stop function and keyless go capabilities. It is compatible with most DC12V vehicles, including both diesel and petrol engines, and manual or automatic transmissions.
2. Important Notes and Safety Information
- Professional Installation Recommended: Installation of this system requires advanced knowledge of car electrical systems. Professional car alarm installer installation is highly recommended to ensure correct functionality and prevent damage to your vehicle.
- Steering Wheel Lock: When installing the system, it is necessary to release, unlock, or remove the steering wheel lock if your vehicle is equipped with one.
- Remote Engine Start: The remote engine start function is only available for automatic transmission vehicles. To utilize this feature, your existing remote (key fob) must provide three locking pulses when the lock button is pressed three times consecutively. If this condition is not met, the remote engine start function will not be available.
- No Remote/Key Fob Included: This kit does not include a remote or key fob. It is designed to work with your vehicle's existing factory or aftermarket remote/key fobs.
- Immobilizer Bypass: If your original car remote control (key) contains a chip immobilizer, an additional bypass module (e.g., ASIN: B00MEHBVIC) is required. Universal bypass modules are generally compatible, excluding DATA or CAN-BUS style modules.
- LED Indicator: The engine start button LED illuminates blue when the system is disarmed, and when ACC or ON modes are active. It changes to purple once the vehicle engine has started.

5. Operating Instructions
The EASYGUARD ES002-P5 system offers two primary methods for starting the vehicle and a simple method for shutting it off.
5.1 Starting the Car
Figure 5.1: Visual guide demonstrating two methods to start the vehicle using the push start button. Method 1 involves a single short press while pressing the brake pedal. Method 2 involves holding the button for 3 seconds while pressing the brake pedal.
- Method 1 (Short Press): While the system is disarmed, step on the foot brake pedal and then briefly press the push start button once. The engine will start.
- Method 2 (Long Press): While the system is disarmed, keep the foot brake pedal pressed and hold the push start button for approximately 3 seconds. The engine will start.
5.2 Shutting Off the Car
Figure 5.2: Visual guide demonstrating how to shut off the vehicle. Once the car is started, step on the foot brake pedal and short press the push start button once to turn off the engine.
Once the car engine is running, step on the foot brake pedal and briefly press the push start button once. This action will shut off the engine.
5.3 Switching ACC-ON-OFF Modes
The system allows switching between ACC (Accessory), ON (Ignition), and OFF modes without starting the engine. This functionality is typically achieved by pressing the start button without pressing the brake pedal. Refer to the detailed installation guide for specific sequences if not immediately apparent.
6. Maintenance
The EASYGUARD ES002-P5 Push Start Button Kit is designed for minimal maintenance. Ensure all wiring connections remain secure and free from corrosion. Periodically check the push button for any physical damage or debris that might impede its operation. No user-serviceable parts are inside the control module.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your EASYGUARD ES002-P5 system, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Engine Not Starting:
- Ensure the foot brake pedal is fully depressed when attempting to start the engine.
- Verify that the system is disarmed.
- Check all wiring connections for looseness or corrosion.
- If your vehicle has a chip immobilizer, confirm that the bypass module is correctly installed and functioning.
- Remote Engine Start Not Working:
- Confirm your vehicle has an automatic transmission.
- Verify that your existing remote (key fob) sends three locking pulses when the lock button is pressed three times. This is a requirement for the remote start feature.
- Button LED Color Incorrect:
- Blue indicates disarmed, ACC, or ON mode. Purple indicates the engine is running. If the colors do not match the operational state, re-check wiring to the button.
- Steering Wheel Remains Locked:
- Ensure the steering wheel lock has been properly released, unlocked, or removed as part of the installation process. This is a critical step for proper system function.
For persistent issues, it is strongly recommended to consult a professional car alarm installer or contact technical support.
