This guide is for the Texas Carbon Valved Cat-Back Exhaust System for the Ford Mustang GT.
It applies to the wireless valve control system included with our valved exhaust systems for the Ford Mustang GT. The remote that ships with your exhaust is already paired at the factory and works right out of the box. We include one remote with each exhaust, and under normal use you will never need to pair it yourself.
This guide is only for the rare case where something has gone wrong, such as a remote that has stopped responding or a replacement remote that needs to be paired to your control module.
If that is your situation, we strongly recommend contacting us before you begin. Email support@texascarbon.co with a few photos of your control module and remote, and we will walk you through it personally to make sure everything is done correctly. The steps below look straightforward, but we would much rather guide you directly than have a small misstep turn into a problem. Reaching out first is always the safest way to handle this.
OPENING THE CONTROL MODULE
- On top of the control module, locate the Texas Carbon logo. It is laser-etched on a thin metal plate held in place with double-sided adhesive.
- Peel the plate off. Underneath you will find four Phillips head screws.
- Remove all four screws and separate the housing to expose the circuit board inside.
FINDING THE LEARN BUTTON
On the circuit board, locate the white button on the perimeter. This is the learn button used for pairing.
Some earlier modules have a black button near the center of the board instead. If your board does not have a white button, use that one.
PAIRING THE REMOTE
Your wireless remote has two buttons, one on the top and one on the bottom. You will assign one to open the exhaust valves and the other to close them.
- Press the learn button on the board. The red light comes on, which means it is ready to assign a button.
- Press the remote button you want for Open. It is now set to open.
- Press the learn button again. The red light comes on a second time, ready for the next one.
- Press the other remote button for Close. It is now set to close.
- Pairing is complete. The first button opens the valves, and the second closes them.
Once pairing is finished, reassemble the housing and secure the four screws. The logo plate only covers the screws, so if the adhesive no longer holds it can be left off without affecting how the system works.
IF SOMETHING DOES NOT WORK
If anything does not behave the way it is described here, stop and reach out to us. We are glad to help, and we would rather get you taken care of than risk an issue with your setup.
