The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:

■ Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized

Ungo dealer.

iinnssttaallllaattiioonn ppooiinnttss ttoo rreemmeemmbbeerr

■ Please read this entire installation guide before beginning the installation. The installation of this remote

start system requires interfacing with many of the vehicle’s systems. Many new vehicles use low-voltage or

multiplexed systems that can be damaged by low resistance testing devices, such as test lights and logic

probes (computer safe test lights). Test all circuits with a high quality digital multi-meter before making con-

nections.

■ Do not disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft-coded radio. If equipped with an air bag, avoid

disconnecting the battery if possible. Many airbag systems will display a diagnostic code through their

warning lights after they lose power. Disconnecting the battery requires this code to be erased, which can

require a trip to the dealer.

■ Check with the customer on status LED location.

■ Remove the domelight fuse. This prevents accidentally draining the battery.

■ Roll down a window to avoid being locked out of the car.

■ Test all functions. The “Using Your System” section of the Owner's Guide is very helpful when testing.

■ When testing, don’t forget that this system is equipped with Nuisance Prevention Circuitry™(NPC™). NPC can

bypass trigger zones, making them appear to stop working. See the

Nuisance Prevention Circuitry

section.

■ Review and complete the

Safety Check

section of this guide prior to the vehicle reassembly.

■ Keep it away from heat sources, such as radiators, exhaust manifolds, turbochargers, and heat shields.

■ Mount it where a thief cannot easily disconnect it, whether the hood is open or shut. Both the siren and its

wires should be difficult to find. This usually involves disguising the wire to look like a factory harness.

■ We recommend against grounding the siren to its mounting screws. Instead, we recommend running both the

red and black wires into the passenger compartment and grounding to one common point for all devices.

After all, both wires are the same length and come already bonded together. Whenever possible, conceal your

wires in the factory harnesses or in the same style loom as the factory.

■ When possible, place the siren on the same side of the vehicle as the control module, where its wires will

reach the control module’s wires without extending them. Always run the wires through the center of a

grommet, never through bare metal!

■ Point the siren down so water does not collect in it.

■ Never put the control module in the engine compartment!

■ The first step in hot-wiring a vehicle is removing the driver's side under-dash panel to access the starter and

ignition wires. If the control module is placed just behind the driver's side dash it can easily be disconnected.

■ When mounting the control module, try to find a secure location that will not require you to extend the harnesses’

wires (they are 1.5 meters long). Keep it away from the heater core (or any other heat sources) and any obvious leaks.

■ The higher the control module is in the vehicle, the better the transmitter range will be. If you put the

control module under a seat or inside a metal dashboard, range will diminish.

Some good control module locations: above the glove box, inside the center console, above the under-dash fuse

box, above the radio, etc.

■ Using double-sided tape or hook-and-loop fastener to mount to a trim panel or an air duct, or

■ Wire-tying to a wire harness.

If mounting the sensor where it cannot be easily reached for adjustment, hook-and-loop fastening tape (such as

Velcro) is recommended for ease of removal for future adjustments.

NNOOTTEE::

In many vehicles, tying the sensor to a steering column or screwing it to metal will result

in poor sensitivity, especially at the rear of the vehicle.

IIMMPPOORRTTAANNTT!!

When the vehicle is delivered, please show the user where this switch is located

and how to disarm the system with it.

Ensure that the location you pick for the switch has sufficient clearance to the rear. The switch should be well

hidden. It should be placed so passengers or stored items (such as in a glove box or center console) cannot acci-

dentally hit it. The switch fits into a

9

/32-inch hole.

This system has Remote Valet. The user can enter and exit Valet® Mode without having to reach the

Valet®/Program switch. This feature was introduced so that switch location was less critical in day-to-day use.

As long as the Valet®/Program switch can be reached to disarm without a transmitter, easy access is not important.

■ It should be visible from both sides and the rear of the vehicle, if possible.

■ It needs at least

1

/2-inch clearance to the rear.

■ It is easiest to remove a small panel, such as a switch blank or a dash bezel, before drilling a

9

/32-inch hole.

■ Use quick-disconnects near the LED wires if the panel is removable. This lets mechanics or other installers

remove the panel without cutting the wires.

If optional starter kill relay or its connections are immediately visible upon removal of the under-dash panel,

they can easily be bypassed. Always make the relay and its connections difficult to discern from the factory

wiring! Exposed yellow butt connectors do not look like factory parts, and will not fool anyone! For this reason,

routing the optional starter kill wires away from the steering column is recommended.

Now that you have decided where each component will be located, you’re going to find the wires in the car that

the security system will be connected to.

IIMMPPOORRTTAANNTT!!

Do not use a 12V test light or logic probe (computer safe test light) to find these

wires! Use a digital multimeter for all testing.

We recommend two possible sources for 12V constant: the (+) terminal of the battery, or the constant supply to

the ignition switch. Always install a fuse within 12 inches of this connection. If the fuse also will be powering

other circuits, such as door locks, a power window module, a Nite-Lite® headlight control system, etc., fuse

accordingly.

IIMMPPOORRTTAANNTT!!

Do not remove the fuse holder on the red wire. It ensures that the control module
has its own fuse, of the proper value, regardless of how many accessories are added to the main
power feed.

The ignition wire is powered when the key is in the run or start position. This is because the ignition wire powers

the ignition system (spark plugs, coil) as well as the fuel delivery system (fuel pump, fuel injection computer).

Accessory wires lose power when the key is in the start position to make more current available to the starter motor.

1. Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine).

2. Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.

3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the ignition wire. The

steering column harness or ignition switch harness is an excel-

lent place to find this wire.

4. Turn the ignition key switch to the run position. If your meter

reads (+)12V, go to the next step. If it doesn’t, probe another

wire.

5. Now turn the key to the start position. The meter display should stay steady, not dropping by more than a

few tenths of a volt. If it drops close to or all the way to zero, go back to Step 3. If it stays steady at (+)12V,

you have found an ignition wire.

The (+) parking light wire is often found near the switch. Many cars have the switch built into the turn signal

lever, and in these cars the parking light wire can be found in the steering column. The same wire is often avail-

able in the kick panel or running board.

NNOOTTEE::

Many Toyotas, as well as many other Asian vehicles, send a (-) signal from the switch to
a relay. The relay then sends (+)12V to the bulbs. Whenever you have difficulty finding a (+)
parking light wire near the switch, simply test the wires at any switch or control panel which is
lit by the instrument panel lighting. Remember, you need a (+) parking light wire that does not
vary with the dimmer setting.

2. Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.

3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the parking light wire. Usually, the area near the headlight/parking light

switch is an excellent area to start, as is the kick panel.

4. Turn on the parking lights. If your meter shows (+)12V, turn off the parking lights and make sure it goes back

to zero.

5. If it does return to zero, turn the parking lights back on and, using the dash light dimmer control, turn the

brightness of the dash lights up and down. If the meter changes more than a volt when using the dimmer,

look for another wire. If it stays relatively close to (+)12V, you have found your parking light wire.

■ At the pin switch: When testing at the pin switch, check the wire to ensure that it “sees” all the doors. Often,

the passenger switch will cover all the doors even if the driver’s switch will not.

■ At the dome light: This may not be your best choice if the vehicle has delayed domelight supervision, but it

will work in many Hondas, or any vehicle with completely diode-isolated pin switches.

Once you have determined the wire color, the easiest place to connect to the wire is often at the kick panel, at

the windshield pillar, or in the running board. When an easy location is not available, running a wire to the dome-

light itself is often the best solution.

1. Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine).

2. In most Fords, fasten the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground. In most other cars, fasten the (+) probe

of your meter to (+)12V constant.

3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the door trigger wire. If the meter reads (+)12V when any door

is opened, you have found a trigger wire.

NNOOTTEE::

Make sure the wire you use “sees” all the doors! Some newer GM vehicles lack standard­type pin switches. The dome light in these vehicles is turned on when the door handle is lifted.
These usually have a blue/white or white wire coming out of the door into the kick panel which
will provide a (-) trigger for all doors. Some GM vehicles (some Cavaliers, Grand Ams, etc.) have
a yellow wire coming out of the door which provides a (+) door trigger.

Before making your connections, plan how your wires will be routed through the vehicle. For instance, the red

12V constant input and the orange ground-when-armed output (for the optional starter kill relay) will often be

routed together to the ignition switch harness. In order to keep the wiring neat and make it harder to find, you

may wish to wrap these wires together in electrical tape or conceal them in tubing similar to what the manu-

facturer used.

There are two acceptable ways of making a wire connection - solder connections and crimp connectors. When

properly performed, either type of connection is reliable and trouble-free. Regardless of whether you solder your

connections or you use mechanical-type crimp-on connections, ensure that all connections are mechanically

sound and that they are insulated.

Cheap electrical tape, especially when poorly applied, is not a reliable insulator. It often falls off in hot weather.

Use good-quality electrical tape or heat shrink.

■ Never twist-and-tape the wires together without soldering.

■ Never use “fuse taps”, as they can damage fuse box terminals.

If you use tapping connectors such as 3M T-Taps (not to be confused with Scotch-Locks), avoid using them in

higher-current applications (constant 12V, ground, etc.). Some tapping connectors are inferior in quality and

should be avoided.
