    My 5901 remote is on week 3 of the first charge. The manual also tells me how to lock the remote when it's in my pocket. It tells the inside temp and all that stuff too, don't know why you all are putting it down???

    I got mine 5902 installed last week and i love it so far.Now, does anybody know how to adjust the sensitivity of the alarm? and what it should cover? 'cause i was kicking the wheels and nothing happended. It's exempt? I dont think that i should by an extra sensor fot it. Already paid to much money. Thanks in advance for the replies .

    You have to have the truck unarmed, then go into the admin mode - I think by holding the scroll wheel button thingy in - check your manual. There is a sensitivity adjustment, but I dont know if a bigger or smaller number increases the sensitivity. If you figure it out, let us know, I need to dial mine up too. Although I did get the glass breakage and the tilt sensors as well.

    Yes, with the truck unarmed, press and hold the scroll wheel for about 3 seconds, then go to adjustment features and then you'll be able to adjust the sensitivity, (the bigger number(15) increase the sensitivity) dont forget to saved it but still kicking the wheels and nothing happended. It is normal? Does somebody tried that before? I called Tech support and they said it suppose to cover all around the truck and the wheels as well.

    Mine is at 15, and you have to hit it decently hard to get any reaction, I'm guessing the wheels are absorbing a good amount of shock, but even when hitting my sliders it sometimes won't do anything. I'm gonna talk to the installer about adding my other shock sensor to see if that will help. I need to go back anyway.
