This Remote Start/Alarm System is designed to be used with Automatic T ransmission-Fuel Injection Vehicles Only! The unit provides a selectable ignition control that allows a number of selectable timed outputs

for glow plug preheat in addition to a "Wait To Start Input" either of which may be required for certain diesel vehicles, (see selectable feature #1 1 Bank 3 & or Green/Y ellow Wire). If the diesel engine has a instant fire, (no

glow plug preheat system), feature #1 1 of Bank 3 should remain in the default Gasoline mode setting. For diesel applications, consult your dealer for the type of ignition system used in your particular vehicle. Regardless of the vehicle, Gasoline or Diesel, for every installation, the vehicle MUST HAVE a Tach

Signal Input, Automatic Transmission and Fuel Injection.

INSTALLATION OF THE MAJOR COMPONENTS:

CONTROL MODULE:

Select a mounting location inside the passenger compartment (up behind the dashboard). The mounting location selected must be within 24" of the ignition switch wiring harness to allow connection of the 6 pin main wiring harness. Be certain that the chosen location will not interfere with proper operation of the vehicle. Avoid mounting the module to or routing the wiring around the steering shaft/column, as the module or wiring may wrap around or block the steering wheel preventing proper control of the vehicle. Secure the module in the chosen location using cable ties or screws as necessary .

Do Not Mount The Module In The Engine Compartment, as it is not waterproof. SIREN:

Select a location in the engine compartment that is not accessible from below the vehicle. The selected location must be clear of hot or moving parts within the engine compartment The siren must be pointed downward to prevent water retention and the flared end must be pointed away from and out of the engine compartment for maximum sound distribution. Before securing the siren, check behind your chosen location to assure that the mounting screws will not penetrate any factory wiring or fluid lines. Secure the siren mounting bracket using #8 self tapping screws or by first using the mounting bracket as a template, scribe or mark the mounting holes. Drill the marked holes using a 1/8" drill bit, then mount the siren using #8 sheet metal screws.

HOOD PIN SWITCH:

The pin switche included in this package is intended for protecting the hood area of the vehicle. In all cases, the switch must be mounted to a grounded metal surface. When the pin switch is activated, (hood open), it will supply a ground to the input wire activating the alarm. In addition, the hood switch is required for the safety shut down of the remote start unit. If the vehicle is being worked on, this hood switch prevents the remote start activation even if the RF command to start is issued. This switch must be

installed in all applications. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or property damage.

Mount the switch in a location away from water drain paths. If necessary, an optional bracket may be used to move the switch away from rain gutters or allow mounting to the firewall behind the hood seal. In both cases the switch must be set up to allow the hood to depress the switch at least 1/4 inch when the hood is closed and fully extended when the hood is opened. For direct mounting, a 1/4 inch hole must be drilled. Carefully check behind the chosen location to insure the drill will not penetrate any existing factory wiring or fluid lines. Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and thread the pin switch into it using a 7/16" nut driver or deep well socket. If using the mounting bracket, first secure the bracket to the desired location and secure the pin switch in the pre-threaded mounting bracket hole.

THE PUSH-BUTTON/LED/RECEIVER/ANTENNA ASSEMBL Y:

The Spread S pectrum Receiver Antenna Assembly provided with this unit allows routing from below the dash board for maximum operating range. Choose a location above the belt line (dashboard) of the vehicle for best reception. Special considerations must be made for windshield glass as some newer vehicles utilize a metallic shielded window glass that will inhibit or restrict RF reception. In these vehicles, route the antenna toward a rear window location for best reception. Secure the antenna with double stick tape provided. After securing the antenna with t ape, we advise also securing a section of the antenna cable to a fixed support. This will prevent the antenna from dropping down in case the double stick tape is exposed to extreme heat which may loosen it's gummed surface. Route the 6 pin connector toward the control module using caution not to pinch the cable as this will cause poor or no RF reception to the control module.

SHOCK SENSOR:

Select a centrally located, solid mounting surface for the shock sensor that will allow consistent operation from all areas of the vehicle. The selected location must be within 18" of the control module to allow routing and connecting of the 4 pin harness. Secure the shock sensor to the chosen location using two #8 self tapping sheet metal screws. The sensor can also be secured to an existing dash brace using cable tie straps. Whichever mounting method is used be sure to allow access to the sensitivity adjustment potentiometer for use later in the installation.

ST ARTER INHIBIT RELA Y:

Select a mounting location within 12" of the ignition switch's low current start solenoid wire. Secure the relay to an existing harness in the chosen location using a cable tie around the relay's wiring harness. CAUTION! Do not wire tie the metal bracket to an existing wiring harness as vibration may cause

This unit is to be used in vehicles with AUTOMA TIC TRANSMISSIONS only! Although this combination Alarm/Remote Start unit is a sophisticated system with many advanced features, IT MUST NOT be installed into a vehicle with a manually operated transmission. Doing so may result in serious personal injury and property damage.

DO NOT PLUG THE SIX PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS OR THE MUL TI PIN INPUT / OUTPUT HARNESS INTO THE CONTROL MODULE UNTIL ALL CONNECTIONS TO THE VEHICLE HAVE BEEN MADE. AFTER SELECTING YOUR TARGET WIRES AS DEFINED BELOW, DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE BA TTERY CABLE FROM THE VEHICLE BA TTERY PRIOR TO MAKING ANY CONNECTIONS. NOTE: Do not remove the fuse holders from this wire harness. Fuses must be used and

YELLOW Wire: S tarter Output Careful consideration for the connection of this wire must be made to prevent the vehicle from starting while in gear. Understanding the difference between a mechanical and an electrical Neutral Start Switch will allow you to properly identify the circuit and select the correct installation method. In addition you will realize why the connection of the safety wire is required for all mechanical switch configurations.

Failure to make this connection properly can result in personal injury and property damage. In all installations it is the responsibility of the installing technician to test the remote start unit and ensure that the vehicle cannot start via RF control in any gear selection other than park or neutral. In both mechanical and electrical neutral start switch configurations, the connection of the Y ellow wire will be made to the low current start solenoid wire of the ignition switch harness. This wire will have +12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the start (crank) position only . This wire will have 0 volt s in all other ignition switch positions. NOTE: This wire must be connected to the vehicle side of the starter cut relay (when used). For the electrical neutral switch configuration, this connection must be made between the starter inhibit relay , (when used) and the neutral safety switch as shown in the following diagram. Failure to connect this wire to the ignition switch side of the of the neutral safety switch can result in personal injury and property damage. SEE NEUTRAL ST ART SAFETY TEST FOR FURTHER DET AILS.
