MOUNTING THE COMPONENTS

1. Mounting The Siren Control Module

Select a flat, metal surface within the engine compartment, but not on
the engine, for mountingthe siren controlmodule. Keep inmind that the
horn end must be facing down to prevent water from entering the
module.
Alocationon the firewall, which is noteasily accessiblefrom underneath
the vehicle, ispreferred, This locationwill provide optimum operation of
theshock sensor, andpreventthe potential thieffrom disconnecting the
alarm from below the vehicle.
You should also locate the control module away from hot or moving
components within the engine compartment, and avoid areas where
water will run off or collect during heavy rainstorms.

To mount the siren control module;
A. Secure the module mounting bracket to the selected location using

the (2) 3/4" long screws provided.Carefully drill a 1/8" diameter pilot
hole for starting the screws.

B. In most cases, if the bracket has been secured to a solid metal

surface, you can connect theBLACK wire from the wiring harness to
the siren mountingbolt. Using a10 mm wrench or socket, secure the
siren module ( and eyelet terminal on the end of the BLACK wire) to
the bracket using the (2) 3/8" long hex head bolts and (2) split lock
washers provided.

2. Mounting the Hood and Trunk Pin Switches

Two pin switches are provided to protect the hood and trunk lids of the
vehicle, and should be used on any hood or trunk lid that does not turn
a courtesy light on. The switches must always be mounted into a
grounded metal part of the vehicle,as they simplywill not operatewhen
mounted into plastic or fiberglass.
The mounting surface must be at a height that will cause the plunger to
depress 1/4 “ when the hood or trunk lid is closed.

IMPORTANT ! Since the pin switch is designed to be depressed when
the hood / trunk lid is closed onto it, a dimple can occur on the exterior
paint surface if the switch ismounted where itwill contact asingle metal
thicknessarea of the hood /trunk lid.Alwaysmount the pin switch where
it will contact a double wall area of the hood / trunk lid.

When choosing the pin switch mounting location, it is important to
position the switch and/or bracket where water cannot collect or flow.
Avoid all drip “ gutters “ on hood / trunk fenders. Look for locations that
are sealed with rubber gaskets when the hood / trunk lid is closed.
Excessive water on these parts will cause corrosion, resulting in a loss
of protection to the hood / trunk lids. Also,any holesmade to mount the
switches will rust when water is allowed to penetrate. There are three
different mounting methods available. They are;

1. Direct mounting into a trunk lip, radiator cross brace, etc.
A. Drill a 1/4 “ diameter hole into the selected mounting surface. Be

sure there is adequate clearance behind the surface for the pin
switch.

B. Thread the pin switch into the hole using a 7/16 “ wrench or deep

well socket.

2. Mounting using the right angled bracket.

A. Secure the bracket to the desired mounting surface using(2)

sheet metal screws.

B. Screw the pin switch into the bracket.

NOTE : The height of the pin switch can be adjusted by loosening the

screws and sliding the bracket up or down.

3. Mounting using the flat bracket.

A. Secure the bracket to themounting surface using( 2 )sheet metal

screws.

B. Screw the pin switch into the bracket.

NOTE : This bracket can be bent to accommodate specific mounting

requirements.

3. Mounting The Dash L.E.D. Indicator

Select an area on the dashboard or center console that will provide the
most visibility from all angles outside the vehicle ( driver’s window,
passenger’s window, rear window, etc. ).

IMPORTANT ! Make sure there is adequate room for the body of the
L.E.D.behindthepanel in the selected location. You should alsobe sure
thatthedrill will not pierce any wires,or damageother components after
passing through the panel. It is always best to remove the panel from
the vehicle before drilling the hole.

To mount the L.E.D.;

A. Drill a 1/4" diameter hole at the selected mounting location.

B. Pass the L.E.D. wires through the hole fromthe front of the panel,

and press the body of the L.E.D. into the hole until fully seated.

4. Mounting the Valet Toggle Switch

Select a flat area on the lower dash lip, where the switch is readily
accessible to the driver, but will not be accidentally bumped. Other
alternate locations are on the driver’s side kick panel, or the side of the
lower steering column cover.

Since this is a “ protected “ ( will only operate when the key is in the
ignition ) bypass switch, it does not have to be concealed, however
concealingtheswitch is always recommended, asthis providesan even
higher level of security to the vehicle.

IMPORTANT ! Make sure there is adequate room behind the panel for
the body of the switch in the selected location. Youshould alsobe sure
thatthe drill will notpierce any wires, ordamage other components after
passingthrough the panel. It isalways bestto removethepanel from the
vehicle before drilling the hole.

To mount the valet bypass switch;

A. Drill a 9/32 “ diameter hole in the selected switch location.

B. Pass theswitch through thehole from behindthe panel, andsecure

from the front using the split lockwasher and hex nut provided.

5. Mounting the Relay

The relay can be mounted in the engine compartment, but it is best to
mount it in the passenger’s compartment, where it will not be exposed
to the environment. If the relay will be used to disable the vehicle’s
starter, mount the relay close to the wires fromthe ignitionswitch. If the
relay will be used to flash the vehicle’s parking lamps, mount the relay
near the front parking light cluster.

To mount the relay;

A.Screwthe relay to the mounting surface,using a sheetmetal screw

through the hole in the relay mounting tab.

B. Secure the relay to an existing wire harness or other component

using cable ties.

WIRING THE SYSTEM

Making the connections to the vehicle, as described in this wiring
section,may be beyond thetechnical abilities of theaverageconsumer.
If you have any questions with the wiring procedures, please call a
qualified automotive technician, or call the AUDIOVOX HOT LINE at 1

-800 - 225 - 6074.Priorto making any connections, a12Volt logic probe
should be used to confirm the proper connection point.

IMPORTANT!The 9 pin white connector onthe end ofthe mainharness
that plugs into the siren control module should remain disconnected
duringthewiringportion of the installation. Leaving this disconnected will
ensure that the keychain transmittersare properly programmed later in
the installation.

1. Routing The Wiring Harness

The DARK BLUE, GRAY, ORANGE, BROWN, and WHITE wires must
be routed through the firewall, and into the passenger compartment of
the vehicle.
In most cases, the RED wire will also be routed into the passenger
compartment,to the courtesy light fuse.Before proceedingwith thewire
routing, verify the location of the courtesy light fuse, as a small
percentage of vehicles locate thisfuse inthe engine compartment, and
inthese cases, it willnotbe necessary to routethe RED wire through the
firewall.
Ifyouhave installed a pin switchinto thetrunk, youwill alsoneed toroute
the DARK GREEN extension wire through the firewall, and to the
previously installed trunk pin switch.
After confirming these component locations, route the DARK BLUE,
WHITE,GREY and RED wires towardstheirconnection points. Caution
should be used when routing wires. Keep wires away from all hot
surfaces,andany moving parts of the vehicle( radiatorfans, accelerator
or brake pedal linkage, etc. ).
When routing wires through the firewall, be sure to pass the wires
through an existing rubber grommet. Failure to do this can result in
damage to wiresfrom sharp metal edges, andan eventual failure of the
security system.

2. Connecting the RED Wire

Locate the courtesy lamp fuse. Both sides of the fuse will indicate + 12
Volts on the logic probe while the fuse is plugged in. Remove the fuse,
and test the contacts that the fuse plugs into. One of the contacts will
not indicate + 12 Volts. This is where the RED wire will be connected.

Connection Method A;

A. Locate the wire coming from this fuse terminal at the back of the

fusebox.

B.Splicethe RED wire from theharness tothis wire,andinsulate with

electrical tape.

Connection Method B;

A. “ Fuse clip “ terminals, which will plug in with the contacts of the

fuse, are available at most electronics stores. This method of
connection may be easier in some vehicles.

B. Refer to the specific instructions included with the fuse clip

terminals.

Switch the ignition key to the “ ON “ position ( DO NOT START THE
VEHICLE ), set the parking brake, and move the gear shift selector to
reverse.Movetothe back of the vehicle, andverify that theback up lights
are on.

Probe the wires going to theback up light bulb, and locate the wire that
shows + 12 volts on the logic probe. Move the gear shift selector back
to the park position, and verify that this same wire now shows 0 volts.
This is where the BROWN wire will be connected.

Splice the BROWN wire to this wire, and insulate with electrical tape.

11. 2 Pin Door Lock Interface Connector

There is an additional 2 pin connector coming out of the siren control
module, with a RED and a BLACK wire. This connector is used for the
optional door lock interface, which will remotely lock and unlock your
vehicle’sexistingpowerdoor locks when arming and disarming. Only the
AA 9158 door lock interface should be used with this alarm. If you are
not installing the door lock interface, do not make any connections to
these two wires.

PROGRAMMING THE KEYCHAIN TRANSMITTERS

The two keychain transmitters that are included with this system are a
“code learning “ type RadioFrequency transmitter,whichsimply means
thatthesirencontrol module will learn and rememberthe individual code
number of each transmitter. The siren control module will learn the
individual codes of (2) transmitters only. An attempt to program a third
transmitter will erase the code number of the first transmitter pro­grammed.
IMPORTANT ! Save these programming instructions in a place where
you can easily find themin the future. Whenever the vehicle’s batteryis
disconnected for servicing, the transmitters will need to be repro­grammed.

To Program the Transmitters;

A. The main harness connector should be disconnected from the

siren control module at this step of the installation procedure. If it
is not, unplug the connector.

B. Be sure to have both keychain transmitters in hand, then plugthe

mainharnessconnector into the siren control module. Youshould
hear a short “chirp” from the siren.

C. Press and hold the larger arming button on transmitter number 1

until the siren sounds one long “ chirp “.

D. Immediatelypress andhold the larger armingbutton on transmitter

number 2 until the siren sounds one long “ chirp “.

E. Both transmitters should now be programmed. You can test this

by pressing the arming button on each transmitter, which will
result in the appropriate “ ARMED “ or “ DISARMED “ indication
from the siren module.

IMPORTANT ! If only one transmitter isoperating, repeat the program­ming procedure. Once the harness connector is plugged in, you have
only 15 seconds in which to program both transmitters. This short time

window is required in order to provide a high level of security.

COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION

Youwill notice (5) additionalwires,which come directly outof the rubber
wire exit boot fromthe siren controlmodule, and arenot part of the main
harness. These wires are used to customize the installation, and are
required in some vehicles.

1. Thin BLACK Wire

This is theantenna wire forthe receiver that is built into the sirencontrol
module. Fully extend this wire, and route it as high in the engine
compartment as possible, for maximum transmitter range.

2. BLACK Loop Wire

This pair of wires exits the rubber boot, and are terminated with 1/8 “
mating male and female spade connectors.
Thissystem can be programmed toarmactively or passively. Insurance
discounts are usually larger for passive arming security systems.
Active arming means that the security system will only arm when the
transmitterbuttonis pressed. To select the active armingfeature, simply
plug the two terminals on the BLACK wire loop together.
Passive arming means that the security system will automatically arm
60 seconds after the ignition key has been switched off. You still have
theoption of armingthesystem immediately bypressing the transmitter
button, but ifyou forget to do this,the system will automatically arm and
provide full protection to the vehicle. To select the passive arming
feature, be sure the two terminals on the BLACK wire loop are
disconnected, and individually insulate each end with electrical tape.

3. BLUE Loop Wire

This wire exits the rubber boot, and immediately loops back into the
rubber boot.
The siren control module is programmed at the factory for voice
activation. If you wish to eliminate the voice response of the system
( replace theword “ ARMED “ with one single “chirp “- replace theword
“ DISARMED “with two “chirps “ -replace the word“ INTRUSION “ with
four “ chirps “ - and replace the words “ ATTENTION, BACKING UP “
with “ threechirps..pause..three chirps..etc. “ ), simply cut thisblue wire
loop, and individually insulate both sides with electrical tape.

NOTE : The “ ATTENTION INTRUSION “voice message during the 60
second alarm cycle will always be active. There is no way to eliminate
this voice message.

4. WHITE Loop Wire

This wire exits the rubber boot, and immediately loops back into the
rubber boot.
Three minutes after the alarm has been armed, the voltage sensing
circuitrybecomesactive.This voltage sensing monitors the voltagelevel
of the vehicle, and when it sees a change ( i.e. a door opens, and the
interior light turns on ), the alarm is triggered.
Manyvehiclesincorporatean electronic cooling fan, which willautomati­cally switch on after the vehicle has been turned off.If thisfan switches
onshortlyafter the alarm has been armed, thesystem willnot trigger due
to the three minute delay.
If your vehicle does not have an electronic cooling fan which turns on
after the vehiclehas been turned off, youmay elect to by passthe three
minute arming delay of the voltage sense circuit. The system can be
modified so that six seconds after arming, the voltage sensing circuitry
becomes active. The three minute time delay can be eliminated by
cutting the WHITE wire loop. After cutting the WHITE wire loop,
individually insulate both ends of the wire with electrical tape.
Do not cut this loop ifyour vehicle isequipped with anelectronic cooling
fan, as you will experience false alarms.

5. GREEN Loop Wire

This wire exits the rubber boot, and immediately loops back into the
rubber boot.
Cutting this wire will eliminate the voltage sensing feature of the alarm.
When this wire is cut, opening the doors will not trigger the system.
This loop wire should be cut only if you want to protect the vehicle from
sudden impacts to the glass or body panels, but do not want the alarm
to trigger when a door has been opened.

6. Final Touches

If there are any wires from the main harness that you did not connect,
simply because you did not wish to activate a particular feature, you
shouldeither insulate theends of thesewires with electrical tapeand tie
them where they cannot be damaged, or simply remove any unused
wires from the main harness connector.

ADJUSTING THE SENSITIVITY OF THE SHOCK SENSOR

The purpose of a shock detector is to “sense” strong impacts to the
vehicle’s glass and body panels, but ignore light bumps to the vehicle.
This alarm is programmed to report these impacts in two ways.

A lighter impact will cause the alarm to sound a series of short “chirps”,
warning anyone tampering with the vehicle to stop immediately.

Amoreforceful impact will cause the alarm tosound forit’s full 60second
cycle, informing you that a serious violation attempt has occurred.

IMPORTANT ! Setting the sensitivity of the shock sensortoo high will
cause false alarms. A substantial amount of force is required to
actually break automotive glass, and the shock sensor should be set
accordingly.

Before proceeding with the adjustment, make sure that all screws
securing the siren control module to the bracket, and securing the
bracket to the vehicle, are securely tightened.

To adjust the shock sensor;
A. Locate and remove the small rubber plug on the back of the siren

control module.

B. Gently turn the adjustment screw fully counter - clockwise, then

clockwise approximately 1/8of a turn.Do not over turn thisscrew, as
maximum rotation is approximately 270º. You should stop applying
pressure as soon as you feel a slight amount of resistance.

C. Close the hood, arm the alarm ( ARMED or “ 1 CHIRP “ ), and allow

six seconds for the shock sensor to stabilize.

D. Firmly strike the front bumper of the vehicle with the side of a closed

fist, considering the amount of force required to break a window.

CAUTION !Never perform this test on the vehicle’s glass, as you may
break a window.

E.If the alarm didnot sound,orif only the warningchirpswere activated,

then the sensitivity will need to be increased. Disarm the alarm, and
open the hood to gain access to the siren control module.

F. Gently turn theadjustment screw approximately 1/8 turn clockwise (

increasing sensitivity ), and repeat the test.

OPERATING THE SYSTEM

In this section, theoperation of thesystem is describedaccording to the
voicemessagesthat are programmed into the siren controlmodule. The
equivalent chirp tones are shown in parenthesis for those users that
have disabled the voice ( see blue wire loop ).

Additionally, if the relay included in the package was used to flash the
parking lights, the parking light indications will be shown in brackets

[].

1. Arming the System

A. Exit the vehicle, and close and lock all doors.
B.Press and releasethe larger arming buttonon the keychaintransmit-

ter. The system will respond with “ARMED” ( one single chirp). [ one
flash ].

C. The red dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash, and after approxi-

mately six seconds, the shock sensing feature of the system will be
activated. The voltage sensing circuit will begin its countdown, and
after approximately threeminutes, opening a light activateddoor will
trigger the alarm.

D. If the system has been installed usingthe automatic passive arming

feature,then 60 seconds after switchingthe ignitionkeyoff, the alarm
will automatically arm providing the hood and trunk lids are closed.
During the 60 second automatic arming cycle, the dash mounted
L.E.D. will flash rapidly.

IMPORTANT ! If the WHITE loop wire was cut during the installation
procedure, the voltage sensing feature of the alarm will become active
sixseconds after arming thesystem (seeCOMPLETING THE INSTAL­LATION, WHITE Loop Wire ). You will not need to wait the three
minutes, before opening a door will cause the alarm to trigger.

2. Protection While the System is Armed

A. Opening a door ( or any light activated entry point ), will cause the

alarm to immediatelysound for the complete 60 second alarmcycle.
If the relay was installed to flash the parking lamps, then the parking
lights will flash on and off during the 60 second alarm cycle.

B. If the relay was installed to disable the vehicle’s starter, then any

unauthorized attempt to start the vehicle will be prevented.

C. While the system is armed, the red dash mounted L.E.D. will

constantly flash, discouraging any would be thieves.

D. Any light impact to the vehicle glass or body panels will cause the

system to immediately sound the warning chirps, discouraging any
further attempts to enter the vehicle.

E. Any forceful impact to the vehicle will cause the system to immedi-

atelytrigger for thecomplete60 second alarmcycle. At the endof the
cycle,the alarm will re -arm itself,and resumemonitoringthe vehicle.

3. Disarming the System

A. When you return tothe vehicle, press and releasethe larger arming

button on the keychain transmitter. The system will respond with
“ DISARMED “ ( two chirps ). [ two flashes ].

B1. If the alarmhasbeen wired for ACTIVEoperation, then the reddash

mounted L.E.D. will turn off, indicating that the system is disarmed,
and it is safe to enter the vehicle.

B2. If the alarm has been wired for PASSIVE operation, then the red

dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash rapidly, indicating that the
system is disarmed, but in the automatic re - arming mode. Within
60secondsof disarming the system,you willneed toturn theignition
key to the on position to stop the system from re - arming.

4. Disarming After an Intrusion

When disarming, if the system responds with “ INTRUSION “ ( four
chirps ) [ three flashes ], you are being alerted that the alarm was
triggered during your absence. Additionally, the red dash mounted
L.E.D. will blink 3 times .. pause .. blink 3 times .. etc., to provide an
added visual indication that the alarm had been triggered. These
intrusion indicators are stored in the system’s memory, and will only be
erased when the ignition key is switched on.

5. Decreasing the Sensitivity of the Shock Sensor via the

Keychain Transmitter

There may be some circumstances when you will want to arm the
system, but decrease the sensitivity of the shock sensor, or simply turn
the shock sensor off. This feature can be useful during extreme
thunderstorms, or when parking on or near heavy construction sites.

the keychain transmitter.

B. Immediately afterarming, pressand release thesmaller button onthe

keychain transmitter two times.

C. In approximately five seconds, the siren will sound one short chirp,

followedby one longchirp, indicating thattheshock sensor hasbeen
turned off.

IMPORTANT ! Any time the shock sensor has beenadjusted using the
keychaintransmitter,disarming then re arming the system willreturn the
shock sensor to its normal operating sensitivity.

6. Remote Panic Operation
