Errors in device operation and their elimination
Overview of malfunctions and malfunctions that may occur during the operation of the Tomahawk 7010:
- The security system does not respond to commands sent from the remote control. The user must diagnose the power supply in the device. If the battery needs to be replaced, be sure to pay attention to the polarity during installation. After dismantling the element, press button 5.
- If there is no response to commands, the cause of the problem may be damage to the board or contact elements on the communicator keys. To repair, the user will need to disassemble the device by unscrewing the bolts on its body and check the circuit. If traces of moisture are visible on it, then the communicator must be dried in a warm place, but not near a household stove or in the sun. Failed contacts must be resoldered or cleaned if the problem is their oxidation. Remove dust and debris from the housing with a dry brush or cloth.
- Incorrect operation of the alarm and lack of response may result from damaged cables. When the insulating layer wears out or breaks, the system does not close all doors or does not respond at all to the pager command. A multimeter is used to diagnose the integrity of electrical circuits. When checking, you must first assess the condition of the lines that are laid in the area of the moving nodes. When laying new wires, it is recommended to wrap them with electrical tape to ensure maximum reliability in the future.
- The cause of the malfunction may be poor contact of one of the alarm blocks with the control unit. It is necessary to diagnose the connectors for connecting the microprocessor, transceiver, and push-button switches. The contact elements may have become clogged or oxidized and will require cleaning to correct the problem. If the plug itself fails, it must be replaced.
- A large number of false alarms may be due to incorrect settings of the sensitivity of the shock regulator. To change this parameter, special control devices located directly on the sensor are used.
- If it was not possible to find the reason for the incorrect operation of the alarm, then it may be a malfunction of the microprocessor. The device could fail due to moisture getting inside. The steps to troubleshoot the problem are the same as in the case of a pager. If visual diagnostics did not allow us to identify the problem, then we can conclude that it is a software malfunction. To eliminate it, you will need to reflash the control unit or repair it.

Channel 130 presented a brief overview of the Tomahawk 7010 anti-theft system.
Advantages and disadvantages
Advantages of Tomahawk 7010:
- Effective protection thanks to the use of interactive signal coding. According to reviews, consumers do not encounter the problem of electronic hacking.
- The presence of feedback provides the ability to constantly monitor the status of the alarm in real time.
- Wide functionality at a relatively low cost. Tomahawk 7010 alarms are characterized by the presence of many useful functions that simplify the use and configuration of systems.
- Clear and convenient operating and installation instructions. With the help of service documentation, the consumer has the opportunity to independently install and connect all signaling components. Of course, this will require certain experience and skills. But in their absence, it is quite possible to complete the task yourself.
The main disadvantages of the Tomahawk 7010 include the rapid drainage of the battery in the remote control. When setting up the alarm, as well as intensive use, the battery may discharge. If this happens on the road, where it is impossible to buy a battery, then you will have to control the system using the service mode.
How to install?
The alarm installation procedure begins with studying the circuit; when connecting, the following nuances should be taken into account:
- Electrical circuits should be laid away from electronic devices. Their presence may cause interference when sending commands.
- Cables must not be laid in places where there are moving body parts. If they are damaged, it will be difficult to detect the problem.
- The installation of all main system devices should be carried out away from power electrical circuits and components. We are talking about ignition coils, high-voltage cables to which the spark plugs are connected, etc.
- Before installing the security complex, you can connect all the elements according to the diagram and connect them to the battery. This will allow you to verify in advance that the alarm is in working condition.
- If the car is equipped with airbags and a radio with a code, then disconnecting the battery is not recommended. When you connect it further, the audio system will ask for a code, so we recommend that you refer to the service manual in advance.
- All electronic modules and devices are connected only after they have been installed.
General installation map of Tomahawk 7010
The installation procedure is as follows:
- The electronic module of the system is installed away from sources of interference, moisture and heat. We are talking about electronic devices, as well as the heating system. If this requirement is not taken into account, the operation of the unit may be disrupted. The module is installed with the connector down to prevent drops of condensation from flowing down the wires into the device onto the board. For installation, you should choose the most hidden place, for example, behind the instrument panel or in the free space behind the center console. The module is fixed using self-tapping screws, double-sided tape or plastic ties. The block must be secured as securely as possible to prevent it from being damaged by vibrations during movement.
- The siren is installed in the engine compartment. It is not included in the package, so it can not be installed, but an alarm without a siren is virtually useless. The device is mounted with the horn down, this will avoid the accumulation of moisture inside the device. If the siren is autonomous, that is, equipped with a built-in battery, then during installation it is necessary to ensure free access to the keyhole. The siren must be installed away from the cylinder block and sources of moisture to avoid the negative effects of high temperatures. The installation must be performed in such a way that intruders do not have access from under the bottom of the car to the device and its connection wires.
- The transceiver module is mounted on the inside of the windshield, away from electronic devices and metal parts. The distance between them and the antenna should be at least 5 cm, this will avoid possible interference. Installation is carried out on a cleaned and degreased surface. It is not recommended to install the module under the tint film or at the bottom of the glass, this will lead to poor signal transmission.
- The limit switch is installed on the hood of the car. When the hood is closed, there should be no access to the switch; this must be taken into account during installation. If you purchased additional limit switches, they are installed on the luggage compartment, as well as on the doors. For installation you will need to make holes in the metal.
- Installation of the Valet service button is carried out in a place inaccessible to the criminal, since it can be used to disable the alarm. To hide the button, you can disguise it under one of the standard wiring harnesses by wrapping it with electrical tape. The button must be positioned so that the car owner has easy access to it from the driver’s seat.
- The shock sensor is securely fixed in the central part of the body to metal. There should be no plastic or rubber gaskets between it and the surface, this will lead to a deterioration in the sensitivity parameter. The device is fixed with bolts, self-tapping screws or double-sided tape.
- The alarm status LED light is installed on the dashboard. It must be installed so that the flickering of the diode is visible from the street. This will designate the vehicle as protected.
- When all components are installed and secured, they are connected to the battery and electronic module. Electrical lines are laid under the plastic upholstery, in particular, under the sills. When laying the wires, we recommend additionally wrapping them with electrical tape. This will provide reliable protection from external influences. In addition, in the event of a break-in, detecting the wiring of the anti-theft complex will be problematic.

- Emergency key Override Clicks four times.
- The procedure for turning on the ignition is carried out; in confirmation, the siren will emit four sound pulses.
- Then the service button is pressed again, this will activate the password setting function. Using the key fob, the car owner enters a new PIN code; numbers from 1 to 4 are allowed. If the number is 1, then the button with a locked lock is pressed, if 2, then with an open lock, if 3, then a key in the form of an open trunk is pressed. To enter number 4 of the password combination, click the button with the crossed out speaker. The successful assignment of the first digit of the password will be indicated by sound signals from the siren.
- To go to the menu for setting the second digit of the password, the Override key is clicked once. To enter the next digit, the same conditions are taken into account as for assigning the first one. The siren will emit a beep as confirmation. After entering the password, we recommend writing it down on a separate piece of paper so as not to forget.
Emergency shutdown and activation
If the communicator breaks down or is lost, the procedure for emergency deactivation of the protection mode is performed as follows:
- If the car door lock is opened with a key, this will trigger alarms. The key is inserted into the ignition and switched to ACC mode.
- The Override service element is clicked three times.
- The ignition is turned off. The siren speaker will emit one beep. The car's optical instruments will blink.
- After twenty seconds, the protection mode will be activated. The door locks will not be locked; they must be closed independently from inside the car or using a key.
To enable the protection mode, similar steps are performed. The only difference is that the security will be activated without a 20-second interval.
