Indicator LEDs
The green LED will turn on when the auto-lock module is receiving a signal from the ignition terminal. It will begin flashing if a vehicle speed signal is present at the SPD terminal. The red LED will turn on solid if there is a +12v park signal. It will flash if it is receiving a park signal on the 1-wire
Switch 1 Suicide safety pin select switch
Switch 2 Unlock mode select
When switch 2 is off, the doors will only be unlocked when the ignition is turned off. Switch 3 Lock mode select
When the switch is off, the auto-lock unit will lock when the vehicle exceeds the speed selected by switches 4-6.
Switch 4-6 Speed select
PWR Provide fused constant battery power (+12v) to this terminal. GND Main ground for auto-lock unit. Poor ground connection may cause the system to not operate properly. LOCK Negative output used to drive a relay for locking doors. Connect one side of lock relay coil to this terminal and
UNLCK Negative output used to drive relay for unlocking doors. Connect one side of unlock relay coil to this terminal
gear input.
When turned on (switch toward case), this switch selects the Suicide safety pin mode of operation. This mode enables the warn output and the internal warning tone. It also enables the door pin inputs. After the auto-lock unit attempts to lock the doors, it checks the suicide safety pin switches (door pin inputs). If one of the pins fails to lock, the tone and warning output are activated. The tone and warning output will also be activated if the door pins become unlocked while the vehicle is still in lock condition (over set speed or out of park). The tone and warning output will remain activated until the pins are manually operated to lock or the auto-lock can reattempt and succeed to lock the pins.
When switch 2 is turned on, the auto-lock unit will unlock the doors when it receives a park signal from either the +12v park input or the 1-wire gear input.
When switch 3 is on, the auto-lock unit will lock the doors when there is no park signal on either the +12v park input or the 1-wire gear input.
These switches are only valid when the auto-lock unit is set to lock on speed signal by turning switch 3 off. Different speeds may be selected for the most common speed sender types (see chart on first page). The speeds in the chart are approximate and may vary slightly depending on application. When the speed set by these switches is reached the auto-lock unit will attempt to lock the doors.

WARN Negative output used to drive bulb for warning output, only used in suicide pin mode. It is capable of switching
0.25A, equivalent to a 3 watt 12V bulb. Connect one wire from bulb to terminal and other wire to fused +12V. If a larger or high power indicator is used a relay should be used to turn on the light. In this case connect one side of the relay coil to the WARN terminal and the other side to fused +12v. The relay contacts will then be used to power the light. Any 12v automotive relay can be used, such as the Dakota Digital, RLY-1 30A relay.
SPD Speed input required only if using lock on speed setting, leave unconnected otherwise.
For 2 wire pulse generators connect one wire to ground and the other wire to SPD terminal. If the signal is being shared by a cruise control or ECM, make sure they all use a common ground for the pulse generator. For 3 wire Hall-effect sensors, refer to the installation instructions for the sensor to determine wire color code. Most 3 wire sensors use the following color code: RED – power, BLACK – ground, WHITE – speed signal. For speed sensor integrated into a vehicle wiring harness, consult a service manual to determine the col or code and location of the speedometer signal.
L PIN Required if suicide safety pin mode set (switch 1). If not used leave & R PIN unconnected. These are inputs from the switches on the suicide safety pin assemblies. The switch will
connect the R PIN or L PIN terminal to ground when the pin is fully actuated. If either of the switches fails to close when pins are to be locked, the warning tone and output are activated.
IGN Should be connected to have +12v when key is ON. The auto-lock module will not operate unless it receives
the ignition signal.
GEAR Required if set to lock or unlock using park signal and using Dakota Digital gear sender (GSS-1000, GSS-
2000…) in 1-wire gear signal mode. Connect the 1-wire gear signal wire from sending unit to this terminal. If not used, leave unconnected.
PARK Required if set to lock or unlock on park and a +12V park signal is used. When +12v is applied to the park
terminal, it is read as the vehicle being in park. If not used, leave unconnected.
NOTE: Use either the GEAR terminal or the PARK terminal, but do not use both. The unused terminal should be left unconnected.

Module does not lock with speed signal Lock on speed option not selected
Module locks at key on (park lock setting) Poor connection to park input
Module locks at speeds that are too fast or slow
Module does not unlock Unlock switch setting not as expected.

Poor connection on IGN terminal. Poor ground connection Poor connection to PWR terminal
Speed setting two high Poor connection on SPD terminal
Poor connection to lock relay
Gear sender unit needs calibration or is not operating correctly. Different setting needed on speed switches 4-6 For slower speeds use setting above current setting on
Poor connection on park input (park unlock) Ignition terminal is constantly powered Poor connection to unlock relay Door pins not fully locking
Door pins became unlocked Broken wire from L PIN or R PIN terminal Poor ground on safety pin switches Poor connection on lock relay prevents locking
speed signal (only if set to lock on speed and unlock on park) Noise on speed signal line (while in park)
Check for broken or pinched IGN wire. Check for broken or pinched ground wire. Check for broken or pinched PWR wire. Check switch settings (see chart first page) Select slower speed setting from chart (settings above current setting on chart) Check for broken or pinched SPD wire. Check connections to dual relay pack. Red light stays off when placed in park, check that GEAR terminal is connected to 1-wire gear signal OR that PARK terminal is connected to 12v park signal. Check for broken wires. If red light stays off when placed in park and all connections are ok, see instructions for gear sender.
chart. For faster speeds use settings below current setting on chart. Check switch 2 setting to chart If red led doesn’t light or blink when placed in park, check connection to park terminal being used. If green light doesn’t go out when ignition turned off, relocate feed to ignition terminal to 12v only with key on. Check connections to dual relay pack. If not in suicide pin mode turn switch 1 off Check that door pins for binding or obstructions. Ensure that pins stay locked during normal operation Check for broken wire from pin assembly switch to unit check / relocate ground on pin assembly switches Check connections on dual relay pack Correct wiring so that no park signal is present when there is a speed signal.
Reroute speed signal wire away from spark plug wires or other noisy wires.
