!! WARNING !!
Do not hook this remote car starter into a manual transmission vehicle.
Doing so could cause serious property damage, personal injury, and will
void all warranties. DesignTech International, Inc. will not be held responsible for any resulting damages or injuries if this remote car starter
unit is installed in a stick shift vehicle.
The DesignTech Remote Car Starter:
• Will start your car by remote control, and run the heater, defroster, or air condi-
tioner to warm up or cool down the car.
• Is designed to start the car if it is in park, and only if the hood is closed.
• Will attempt to start the car for up to six seconds, but no longer (to avoid damage
to the starter motor). Should the car not start, or if it stalls after starting, the
remote car starter will make two further attempts to start it.
• Keeps the headlights on to let you know the car is running, and has the ability to
use your transmitter to light your way when walking to the car at night.
• Will not let the car be driven without the key in the ignition.
• Shuts itself off automatically after 10 or 15 minutes (you choose the run time -
consult your installer) if you are delayed coming to your car (20/30 min for deisels).
• Will shut off if the brake pedal is pushed, the hood is opened, or the transmission
is shifted out of park - unless the key is in the ignition and in the “run” position.
• The QUICK STOP
while leaving the car running with the doors locked for either 10 or 15 minutes.
• The COLD START OPTION
should the temperature drop below either 0’F (-18’C) or if the battery voltage
drops below 11 volts.
• Lock and Unlock the doors and open the trunk as well as control security alarm
features with the transmitter.
• Comes with a built-in starter kill relay to prevent vehicle theft.
•· Comes with a plug-in Flashing status LED.
• DAILY START
the same time 24 hours later. Great if you go to or leave from work at the same
time each day.
• Using the built-in DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS feature you can automatically
turn on your lights 10 seconds after the key is turned to the ignition position or the
brake is depressed.
• Is quality engineered, microprocessor controlled, and made in the USA to provide
many years of reliable use.

!! WARNING !!
If you are working on a newer car, you may notice bright yellow tubes or
harnesses underneath the steering column area. These are the “SRS” or AIR
BAG wires. DO NOT tamper with these wires in any way, since this could
result in personal injury and/or damage to the air bag system.
Battery gases are explosive. Do not smoke while working near the car’s
battery.
!! CAUTION !!
When fishing wires through the car’s firewall, be sure to protect them from
sharp metal edges and from hot surfaces on the engine.
NOTE: Some installers hook a battery charger up to the vehicle’s battery
during the installation. This is fine, but it must be removed before running
the vehicle under remote car starter control.

For vehicle specific wiring information -- consult the Blue Sheet
for general information and consult our Web sit for more specific
information. www.designtech-intl.com.
1 BEFORE YOU START
Take this time to read through the entire installation manual. Reading
the manual now will save significant time in the long run. ALL STEPS
ARE CRITICAL.
The installation information section or our web site www.designtechintl.com is available 24 hours/day to provide you with up to date vehicle
wiring information for your particular vehicle if needed.
Wire Harnesses: Always check your wire harness before installing to
make sure that it matches the list/drawing on page 4 of the manual. You
can use the BLUE WIRE COLOR SHEET to help determine the col-
ors of the wires in your vehicle -- but be sure to always check these using
a volt-meter since vehicle wire colors can change from year to year in
vehicles.
When you have read the entire manual, and paid close attention to every
step, start the installation by putting the Yellow WARNING STICKER
under the hood. Pick a surface that is readily visible with the hood open
and will not be easily covered with grime. Make sure that the surface is
clean and grime free before applying the sticker.
28636 - 28638 Page 5Page 4 28636 - 28638

All dipswitches should be OFF (up position) during the installation.
POWER & IGNITION WIRES
The AutoCommand® module (large black box) will be installed under the dash,
once all wiring has been completed. Do not mount the module at this time
because you will need to check the diagnostic lights as the installation
progresses. Locate (or drill a hole) in the firewall to run all of the long wires (12
AWG PINK, 18 AWG YELLOW, VIOLET, GREEN, and BLUE) through the firewall
to the engine compartment. The remaining short wires stay in the passenger
area. Leave about a foot of length at the harness end under the dash for ease of
working and visual access to the diagnostic lights.
(Note: Always connect up the
any of the other wires.)

4 Thick Blue Wire Ignition 1
Attach the Thick BLUE 14 gauge wire (Ignition 1) to the ignition 1 wire
coming off the key switch behind the steering column. This is a wire which
shows positive (+12v) on the test meter in the run and start position, but is off
in the lock/off and accessory position.
2 Black Wire Ground
Optimum ground connection is critical for proper operation of this unit, as well
as transmitter range. Connect this BLACK wire to a very good clean chassis
ground in the driver’s side kick panel area. Use the small red ring terminal if
needed. The metal bracing around or beneath the dash board is not adequate.
3 Long Pink & Short Pink Wire Power (+12V)
The LONG PINK wire goes through the fire wall and connects to the SHORTER
PINK wire with fuse holder. We recommend getting power directly at the
battery +12V terminal. Connect the ring terminal on the SHORT PINK wire to
the +12 volt terminal of the battery. Strip back some insulation and then solder
the two ends of the PINK wires together, or use the Yellow Butt connector to
connect these. Either way, you must have a very good connection.
30 Amp green fuse.
As soon as the Pink (Power) wire is connected the GREEN LED will come on and
go out. (If the unit is already initialized, the GREEN LED will come on for several
seconds while the RED LED flashes 4 times.)

5 Thick Green Wire Ignition 2
Most cars (especially newer cars) have a second ignition wire that is necessary. Use the Thick GREEN 14 gauge (Ignition 2) wire for this connection.
This is a wire that shows positive (+12V) on the test meter in the run position.
It may be best to leave this wire until the end to determine whether the vehicle
needs this wire to operate some of the accessories. Note -- setting dip-switch
option 10 (described in Step 29) will cause this wire to be off during crank.
6 Thick White Wire Accessory
Attach the Thick WHITE 14 gauge wire to the accessory wire coming off of
the key switch behind the steering column area. This is a wire which shows
positive (+12v) on the test meter in the run and accessory position, but is off
in the start and off position.

7 Thick Yellow Wire Starter
Attach the YELLOW 14 gauge wire to the starter wire coming off of the key
switch in the steering column area. This wire is hot (+12V with a meter) in the
start position only. It is off in all other positions.
CONTROL HARNESS
8 On/Off Plug-in Control Switch
This switch must be installed for the remote starter to operate. Mount the
switch then plug this switch harness into the AutoCommand module at the 2
pin white connector. (See diagram on page 4).
Mount the control switch so that the “On” position is facing upward.
Connection of this switch is mandatory.
9 Red/Black Wire Diesel “wait to start” / PAGER Control Harn.
This wire is used in diesel vehicle applications - and is optional. This wire
can be hooked up to the “wait to start” light’s switched wire behind the dash,
or directly to the glow plug wire. The sense wire must change state when the
Wait to Start light turns on. If dip switch option 9 (described in Step 29) is
set, this wire will feed information to the remote starter as to when to begin
starting the vehicle.
This wire can also be used with DesignTech’s Nationwide Pager (model
28010). In Data-Link mode, one can control all features of the remote starter
via any telephone. If the pager is used in Data-Link mode, this wire cannot be
used for Diesel applications. Follow the separate Pager directions for installation.
10 Violet Wire Hood Pin Switch Control Harness
The hood pin switch must be installed for the unit to initialize and work
properly. It prevents operation of the remote starter when the hood is open.
Attach the VIOLET 18 gauge wire to the supplied pin switch using the hardware provided. Be sure to have a good ground connection.
If you already have a hood pin switch which is being used by a car alarm
system, you may share the wiring -- but be sure to diode isolate each wire
going to the hood pin switch. See following diagram:
11 Orange Wire Brake Shut-off Control Harness
The ORANGE 18 gauge wire will disable the remote starter when the brake
pedal is pressed down. This is an added anti-theft safety feature. This connection is usually made under or behind the brake pedal linkage at the switch.
Connect the ORANGE wire to the wire that receives +12V only when the
brake pedal is pressed down. Any +12V input on this wire will shut off the
AutoCommand®. In some cars, the ignition must be on to see power at the
brake wire. This wire must be hooked up. This is a critical safety feature.
This connection is also required for several options discussed later.
NOTE: With the Valet switch connected and in the ON position, pushing on
the brake pedal with the hood open (hood pin switch at ground) at this time
will cause the ignition wires to power up unless the unit has been initialized
as described in the next step.
12 Initializing the Remote Starter
BEFORE THE CAR WILL START FOR THE FIRST TIME, YOU MUST
INITIALIZE THE REMOTE STARTER WITH THE HOOD OPEN.
A. The Remote Starter requires the installer to open the hood, and press and
hold the brake pedal. If the unit is not initialized at this time -- this
action will cause the ignition outputs to come on (i.e. the dash lights come
on) informing you that the unit is
B. While depressing the brake (with the engine off and the hood open), turn the
key to the “RUN” (not “start”) position.
C. Put the car in GEAR from the PARK position.
D Put the car back in PARK and release the brake. The GREEN LED should
have flashed twice when you did this -- then 2 seconds later, the Green LED
will stay on while the Red LED will give 4 quick flashes. (The remote starter
looks at the vehicle’s neutral safety switch and checks for an automatic trans-
mission during this step.)
E. Turn off the key and remove key from ignition.
You can confirm that the unit has been ‘initialized’ — simply turn the ON/OFF
switch OFF and then ON. The GREEN LED (or dashmount LED) on the AutoCommand module will flash once immediately as the switch is flipped from the off
not initialized.

wires will also
IF THE UNIT DOES NOT INITIALIZE AT THIS TIME, see the purple Trouble
Shooting Sheet.
13 Green Wire Tach Input Control Harness
The Remote Starter has two ways of monitoring the car during the starting process.
Either way will ensure a clean, accurate start. Read about both methods before
deciding which one to use.
“No Tach
This starting method
method will start the car by reading the car’s voltage before attempting to start, and
then looking for a voltage increase when the alternator kicks in. This feature automatically takes into account voltage, temperature and the time since the vehicle
was last run.
The “No-Tach
you can skip the rest of this step and proceed to Step 14 should you choose it. Note
that some hard to start vehicles may require option 3 to be set for “extended crank”.
Tachometer sensing
If the vehicle is generally hard starting (requiring a cranking time of more than 2
seconds) you will get more accurate starting with the tachometer sensing starting
method. If you are installing the remote starter on a carbureted vehicle, you must
use the tachometer sensing. This method starts the car by reading the engine speed
(tach) information from a wire under the hood. If you choose tachometer sensing,
connect the GREEN wire to the car’s tach wire under the hood. After you have
connected the GREEN wire, you need to teach the remote starter the vehicle’s tach
rate. Set the Tach rate as follows:

OPTIONAL STEPS
14 Yellow Wire Headlights/Parking Lights Control Harness
The optional YELLOW 18 gauge wire activates the low beam headlights or
the parking lights with a built-in 15 amp 12 volt relay. This feature provides
visual indication that the car has started. After the
fully started the car, the lights will come on and stay on until the system shuts
off, or until the key is inserted into the ignition and the car is driven. Hook
the YELLOW wire to the low beam headlights or the parking lights if you
desire this feature. (Note: There is a 15 Amp fuse in the case for the headlight circuit. This is the one furthest from the power wires. Check this fuse if
you have no output).
15 Blue Wire Horn/Siren (or Trunk) Control Harness
This wire puts out a pulse once each time the remote starter starts the car. It
also is used to confirm Lock and Unlock and in the various CarFinder® and
Panic/Alarm modes.
The AutoCommands have a +12 volt relay output which can directly drive a
horn or siren.
If connecting up to a
horn. The ground side of the horn is probably arleady going to ground.
If connecting up to a
siren and the black ground wire of the siren goes to ground. Note: See Step
29 Option 11 for changing from the factory setting of ‘horn’ mode to the
‘siren ‘ mode.
This output can also be used to supply a +12 volt relay output to power an
electric trunk by setting option 22 (Described in Step 29). If set, the BLUE
wire now acts like a 12 volt positive trunk output and the GREEN/WHITE
wire refered to in Option 22 now acts as a negative (-) horn/siren output. This
GREEN/WHITE wire is a negative transistor output which can be used to
directly drive the negative going horn wire at the steering column.

16 Brown Wire Accessory Pulse/Dome LampControl Harness
The BROWN wire is the acessory pulse which gives you a quick pulse just
before the car starts or stops. This is a 500 mA transistor ground output which
MUST drive a relay (not included) which in turn will supply either ground or
positive signal. This is important in some vehicles to control the defroster or to
control the GM R.A.P. system, or to re-lock power door locks if the vehicle
automatically unlocks them whenever the vehicle stops running.
You can also use the dip-switch option 20 (described in Step 29) to change this
output to turn on the dome lamp when the doors are unlocked. This is a 500
mA transistor ground output which
supply either ground or positive signal to the door pin switch wire. Most GM
vehicles, most Chrysler vehicles and most Japanese vehicles require a ground.
Most Ford cars and trucks will require a positive +12 v output.
MUST drive a relay which in turn will
17 Brown/White Alarm Disable Control Harness
The BROWN/WHITE wire will put out a quick negative pulse just before
unlocking or starting the vehicle. This wire is used to turn off the factory
alarm. Connect this Brown/White wire directly to the factory alarm disarm
wire. This wire is usually located in the driver's kick panel. Refer to the
"factory disarm" column of the blue vehicle wiring guide to determine the
color code of your particular vehicle.
18 White/Black Wire IGN 3 / VATS Control Harness
The WHITE/BLACK wire is a 500 mA transistor ground output that acts just
like the IGN1 or IGN2 relay outputs. It is active during run and crank. This
wire MUST be set up to power a relay. With a relay, it can be used to power
the third ignition wire at the ignition key.
The WHITE/BLACK wire comes on before anything else, and turns off 2.5
seconds after the last wires turn off. Consequently one of the most common
uses for this wire is for a VATS disable wire. See SPECIAL CASES for using
this with the VATS system.
ACCESSORY HARNESS
20 Gray & Gray/Black Alarm Inputs Accessory Harness
Important Note: If you want to use the keyless entry features only - with
no alarm functions - connect the GRAY wire to ground or set Option 24
(described in Step 29) for No Alarm mode .
The GRAY alarm input wire will accept any negative alarm input, including:
shock sensors, perimeter sensors, etc. When connecting a shock sensor or
microwave sensor, always use the GRAY wire. AutoCommand ignores this
input during the remote starting and when the AutoCommand is running the
vehicle, preventing false triggering.
Model 20038: If you are using the
simply plug it into the 3 pin connector jack shown on page 4. The GRAY
wire is in parrallel with the Shock Sensor’s output wire -- thus care needs
to be taken (i.e. diode isolate this wire) if you want to use the GRAY wire
for any other sensor as well.
If you are using a sensor or input that switches to (+) when triggered, you will
need to reverse the polarity with a relay before connecting to the GRAY wire.
The GRAY/BLACK wire is normally for the door pin switch and will be
temporarily disabled for the first 45 seconds of starting (this prevents vehicles with dome light that come on when starting from activating the alarm
if the GRAY/BLACK wire is hooked to the door pin switch). This input is
polarity selectable. This means you can set it to respond to a positive input or
a negative input by setting the dip switch option 23 (described in Step 29).
Factory setting is negative trigger and the option setting is positive (typically
FORD vehicles).
Both inputs are isolated and independent. Since this unit is "last door arming" and "negative trigger", a faulty sensor will not affect the other sensor
input and will not render the alarm inactive. You should diode isolate the
inputs of two or more sensors on the same input wire.

19 Red/White Wire Remote Input Control Harness
The RED/WHITE wire can be used to trigger the AutoCommand to start from
a source other than DesignTech’s remote control transmitter. Giving this wire
a negative pulse will cause the AutoCommand to start. Giving it another negative pulse will cause it to stop.

21 Green/White Wire Trunk / Carb Accessory Harness
The GREEN/WHITE wire can be used for one of 2 functions. See the dip
switch setting option #21 (described in Step 29) to choose the setting you
want (factory setting is trunk). This output is a 500 mA negative transistor
output. You

remote starter is in the armed mode
-- popping the trunk with the transmitter will disarm the alarm.
You can also swap the trunk and horn wires using option 22 (described in
Step 29). This option is also described in Step 15.
22A Extra Yellow Starter Kill
These models have a built-in Starter Kill relay to immobilize the vehicle
when the alarm is armed. You will need to cut the vehicle’s Starter wire in
half between the key cylinder and the starter solenoid of the vehicle. If you
have already hooked up the Thick Yellow Wire in Step 7, cut the wire between
where the Yellow wire is and the key. Now connect the solenoid (engine) side
wire to the yellow starter wire that goes to the module where there are 6 spade
connectors -- if not already done in Step 7. Now attach the extra Thick Yellow wire onto the tab connector of the
remote starter that is protruding out of
the opposite side of the module as the main power wires. Connect the other
end of this wire to the remaining cut end of the keyside of the vehicle’s starter
wire that was cut in half earlier.
22B White Ground out while armed Accessory Harness
This WHITE wire is 400mA continuous negative transistor output which
follows the Starter Kill output. This wire is active whenever the alarm of the
remote starter is armed or the vehicle is running remotely under remote starter
control. You can use the WHITE wire for any other special applications that
are only active while the alarm is armed or running remotely.
23 Dash-mount LED Plug-In LED
This external LED gets pluged into the connector just to the left of the dip
switches. This external LED can be dash mounted as desired. This LED will
disable the GREEN LED on the unit. This becomes useful for checking diagnostics even if the unit is not visible. This LED will also blink on and off
continuously when the

REQUIRED FINAL STEPS
25 The Antenna
The black coax antenna wire with the clear plastic tube at the end receives the remote
signal from the transmitter. Plug the coax antenna into the remote starter module.
Snake the coax antenna around under the dash and up the inside of the right or left
windshield post and over the top of the windshield. Use the 2 enclosed black clips to
mount the last eight inches of the antenna to the windshield
mirror and at least 2 inches down from the metal top of the vehicle. Clean the windshield with the alcohol pad provided for maximum adhesion of the black clips. Use
the 2 double stick foam tape pieces to mount the plastic clips. The better exposed the
last (clear tube) section is, the better the range performance. In many vehicles, you
can get better range performance by mounting the antenna vertically hanging downward from the top of the windshield.
The wiring section of the installation is now complete. Be sure to tape off all unused
wires so as to prevent short circuits, and mount the module securely under the dash.
When tying up and mounting, be sure to avoid any moving parts (steering column,
pedals) and sharp edges.
26 Trying the Unit Out
NOTE: Failure to properly install the hood pin switch and the Control Switch could
result in serious personal injury. All safety features provided must be installed.
WARNING: Be prepared to apply the brake during this testing. Close the hood,
fully apply the emergency brake, and place the vehicle in Park.
Note: Some installers hook up a battery charger to the battery during installation.
This is fine, but the

1. Once all the wiring is checked and is correct, turn the control switch from Off to
On once. (The green LED on the module or external dash mount red feedback
LED if plugged in should flash once then go off.) Note that these LED will
actually glow dim when in the off position.
2. Now put the car in park, then press and hold the middle button on the transmitter.
3. When the remote control radio signal is received, the HORN, if hooked up, will
honk quickly.
4. After this, power will be applied to IGN1, IGN2, and then START.
5. When the car’s rpm go above 500, the START wire will lose power and the ACCESSORY and LIGHTS will be turned on a few seconds later.
6. The car will continue to run for ten minutes, or until the car is taken out of park,
the hood is opened, the brake is depressed, or the transmitter is pushed again.
Please check out each of these safety features.
7. The
remote starter will also turn off if the car stalls, but in this case it will try
starting the car up to 2 more times, waiting a little longer between tries.

4. RETURN DIP SWITCH #1 TO THE UP OFF POSITION!!! A few seconds later the LED and dash lights flash 4 times signifying exiting this
mode.
NOTE: Teaching new transmitters erases all previously learned transmit-
ters. Thus you must learn all current transmitters at the same time.
28 Trouble Shooting with the Self Diagnostics
The remote starter unit comes with a complete built in diagnostic routine. It tells you
why the remote starter wouldn’t start the car or why the unit shut the car off the last
time. To activate the diagnostic mode, simply turn the control switch OFF. In a few
seconds, the GREEN LED on the

the flashes.
Note: If the hood is open when the control switch is turned off, the light output will
flash the diagnostic code. This will allow you to see the code from outside the vehicle.

29 DIP SWITCH SPECIAL SETTINGS
The remote starter unit has 8 dip switches on the side of the case which allow for
programming of special options and features. The first 3 dip switches have already
been used in earlier steps for transmitter learning, and tach rate learning. DIP
switch numbers 4 - 8 are used for selecting up to 31 options other than those that
have been set at the factory. Some options may alter the way the remote starter
operates, some options turn on special features for your particular installation. (See
the next page for a detailed description of each option.)
You will not need to use these special switches in most situations. The factory
settings will operate most vehicles. You must turn the Control Switch OFF to
program any features. (Note that when turning off this control switch the LED
will flash a few times giving the diagnostic code described in Step 28. Ignore this
by waiting a few seconds for it to finish before programming your new Dip Switch
settings.)

2 Learn tach Normal use O FF
3 Tach mode “No-Tach” mode OF F
4 (Programing switch) OFF
5 (Programing switch) OFF
6 (Programing switch) OFF
7 (Programing switch) OFF
8 (Programing switch) OFF
#1 is for teaching the transmitter(s). See step 27.
#2 is for teaching the AutoCommand’s tach rate. See step 13.
#3 sets the starting method. The normal setting is up. In this position, the the
remote starter uses “No-Tach” starting. If you wish to use the tach to start, and
you have connected the GREEN wire, set this switch down (On). See Step 13.
The following list explains the settings as they come from the factory and
the options you may set, if you choose to do so:
FACTORY SETTING OPTION SETTING
Option # (2 Flashes) (1 Flash)
Option 1 Not used
Option 2 10 minutes 15 minutes
Select this option to increase the standard run time to 15 minutes.
Option 3 Normal crank Extended Crank
This option will increase the amount of time the AutoCommand engages the starter.
This is useful for older vehicles or vehicles with throttle body fuel injection that may
take longer to start. This adds 50% more crank time.
Option 4 Normal Crank Super Crank
Same as option 2, but 100% more crank time. This option applies even if Option 2 is
set.
Option 5 Normal Voltage Ignore Voltage Metering
Selecting this option for
volt dip below the voltage reading it takes when in the NO-TACH mode. This is
useful when using the NO-TACH starting on a diesel with many electrical accessories.
Option 6 Gasoline engine Diesel engine
This option allows the AutoCommand to be installed in a diesel vehicle. In this mode
the run times are doubled.
Diesel vehicles tells the AutoCommand to ignore up to a .5

PROGRAMMING OPTIONS:
If you do not want any special features -- DO NOTHING and skip this
section. If you want to change to one of the options, TURN THE CONTROL SWITCH OFF and make sure dip switch #1 and #2 are up (Off).
Wait 6 seconds for the Green LED on the remote starter module (or the
external LED) to stop flashing and then continue with the following procedures:
* Set programming switches (4, 5, 6, 7 & 8) to the correct order for the
first item you would like to set. All five switches must be set according to the chart on the next page.
28636 - 28638 Page 21Page 20 28636 - 28638
Page 12
* Press the MIDDLE button on the transmitter. The green LED on
the remote starter module or the external plug-in LED will flash
ONCE to indicate that the remote starter has changed the selected
feature from the factory setting to the option setting. Pushing the
middle button again will give you 2 flashes of the LED and will
change the setting back from the option setting to the factory set-
ting. You can go back and forth as often as needed.
* Repeat this procedure for each feature you choose to adjust from the
31 options.
* When you have adjusted all of the settings that need to be changed,
reset all the switches to the UP (or OFF) position (towards the LEDs).
This is the normal use position.

Factory Anti-Theft Systems
Many vehicles come with an anti-theft system that must be temporally bypassed for the vehicle to be remotely started.Some systems use a resistor in the
key.Others use a transponder-a small device in the key that communicates a
high security code to the vehicle before the vehicle will successfully start.
Check the following list of vehicles below.If your vehicle is listed, your vehicle has an Anti-Theft System that the remote starter MUST temporally
bypass in order to start the vehicle. More information about the factory antitheft systems and vehicle wire colors can be found at DesignTech web page
www.designtech-intl.com. DesignTech has developed a Universal Alarm
Bypass Module,model #20402,that will temporally bypass the factory antitheft systems when using the remote starter.Check with your local retailer/
installer to purchase this Universal Alarm Bypass Module,model #20402 or
contact DesignTech directly.

HOW TO USE A RELAY
Many of the optional steps require a relay to be hooked up. The most
common relay used for this type application is the Bosch type relay (Radio Shack Cat.#275-226).Use the diagram below for a typical hookup. If
you have another relay then you need to know that pins 85 and 86 in this
diagram relate to the coils of the relay. Pin 30 is the ‘common ’,and pin
87 is the ‘normally open ’contact. If your relay has a pin 87A in the
middle it is the normally closed contact and is not used.

Diesel Vehicles
You must also set Option 6 to run in diesel mode. This may be all that is required in
many installations.
However if possible, hook up the RED/BLACK wire from Step 9 to ensure the best
possible starting.
The Wait-To-Start option 9 combined with Deisel option 6 is the best way
to connect to a diesel vehicle. The Wait-To-Start wire for the 3 most
popular deisel vehicles are as follows:
For Ford vehicles, you may find the vehicle tends to stall after a short
period. You may need to set Option 5 “Ignore meter” for the vehicle to
continue to run.
