What about pedal though?Really? I left mine well alone until all lights went off. No need to touch when starting. ( In my case anyway.)
When start the maserati push gas pedal!!
I touch the pedal sometime when the starting and no problemsUnder no circumstances ever touch the gas pedal on a 3200 while starting, almost guaranteed to throw an ECU error. starting procedure is crank engine don't touch the pedal, the eCU does all the tweaking to get it to fire up automatically.

My car works perfectly and from time to time I plug in the diagnostic machine. I have done this part once, from now on I will consider this informationWell perhaps your car is broken? Apart from there being no point in touching the gas pedal when starting because the ECU ignores pedal demand when starting, it does do an idle output check on the pedal sensor on start up so if its pressed it will cause problems, best avoided.
have you changed the battery in the key recently? There is a little RF chip in the key which the immobiliser talks to while starting to get rid of the immobiliser lock. Any chance its an immobiliser problem? But I also reckon its an orange light like a padlock
I think Davy was suggesting if you’ve changed the battery recently the chip might have dropped out while you’d got the key apart.While the battery is a good shout, the chip in the key is entirely passive and needs no battery at all to work with the immobiliser. That being said, I'm still not *at all* clear if this is some kind of after market alarm and / or immobiliser....... So it might be a top notch shout!
The red LED is *normally* the alarm. Nothing to do with the immobiliser. As said that's the orange padlock on the dash and only comes on when trying to start.

Have you got a pic of this red light? I think you might have something non standard.Thanks for your response, the red light the flashes when the alarm is on
