Hello, I had my system installed yesterday and it works great in parking mode. I followed the instructions given in the youtube video for downloading the program to put it into protection mode but I can't get it to take the programming. It's still in parking mode. I formatted the usb to make sure it was FAT32, made sure there was nothing else on the usb except for setup.alp. I plugged it into the usb port and then turned on the car. it went through the initial beeps when it turns on but then it just sits there and does nothing. I still have a steady green light. I let it sit for 5 min at most but nothing. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks...

You need to also install the firmware and not just load a settings file. Please follow this thread: http://radarandlaserforum.com/showthread.php/29-First-Steps-Required-After-Installing-Your-AL-Priority-System

PM us if its after hours and we are closed and we will get back to you to help you get up and running. You are definitely missing something if you are stuck in Parking Mode. Either you did not install the firmware or you did not set the LID settings on the setup file.
