GENERAL INSTALLATION WARNING

Avoid open sparks, flames or operation of electrical devices near flammable substances. Always disconnect the battery cables when doing electrical work on your vehicle.

Do not charge the battery with a 24 Volt truck charger or reverse the polarity of the battery or any charging unit. Do not charge the battery with the engine running as this could expose the ECU to an unregulated power supply that could destroy the ECU and other electrical equipment.

All fuel system components and wiring should be mounted away from heat sources, shielded if necessary and well ventilated. Disconnect the Haltech ECU from the electrical system whenever doing any arc welding on the vehicle by unplugging the wiring harness connector from the ECU.

After completing the installation, make sure that there are no fuel leaks, and no wiring left un-insulated in case a spark or short-circuit occurs and causes a fire. Also make sure that you follow all proper workshop safety procedures. If you're working underneath a jacked-up car, always use safety stands!

4. Connect the output of the OEM ECU which was connected to an inductive load (e.g. Injectors or boost solenoid) to the blue wires labeled “Injector Outputs”

5. Connect the output of the OEM ECU which was connected to a pulled down load (e.g. Ignition outputs) to the yellow wires labeled “Ignition Outputs”

6. Connect the output of the OEM ECU which was connected to any pulled up load to +12V to the violet wires labeled “Factory Outputs”
