the wires show partial ground through the relay’s coils. |
2) The doorlock switch in a Reversing system will have 5 wires, while a Positive |
pulse system the switch will have 3 wires.
3) A Positive pulse system uses factory relays or a control unit, a Reversing system does not.
This power doorlock system differs from the negative and positive pulse systems in that there is no doorlock control unit or relays. In this type of system, the switches themselves supply the positive voltage directly to the doorlock actuators, and, more importantly, provide the return ground path. It is important to note that the lock and unlock wires in this system actually rest at chassis ground. This means that both the lock and unlock wires must be "opened", or cut, to make the proper connections.
Examine the wires on the back of the switch. (Normally 5 wires will be found
1)One wire will show +12 Volts, regardless of the switch's position.
2)Two wires will be grounded regardless of the switch's position.
3)One wire will show +12 Volts only when the switch is pushed to "Lock".
4)One wire will show +12 Volts only when the switch is pushed to "Unlock".
-When the lock /unlock wires are found, they must be cut one at a time. If the correct wires are cut the door locking system should not operate from the primary switch.
-Notice that in the diagram the driver's switch is the primary or “Master” switch (in some vehicles, the primary switch is on the passenger's side). The half of the cut wires which come from this primary switch are referred to as the "Switch" side. The half of the cut wires which go to the secondary switch are referred to as the "Motor" side even though the cut is made between the switches.
Introduction & Safety Considerations 
3
Congratulations for choosing the Modular Advanced Remote Starter and Keyless Entry system. The MARS-22 offers the convenience of locking and unlocking your vehicle’s doors with the press of a button, and starting your vehicle's engine from the comfort of your home or office, allowing it to warm up in winter and cool down in summer. The MARS can also be configured to remotely open your vehicle’s trunk.
It is highly recommended that this system be professionally installed, as the sophistication of the modern automobile and the complexity of this type of product installation is often beyond the abilities of most do-it-yourselfers.
There are several important safety considerations with using and installing the MARS keyless entry and remote starter. Among them are:
This unit is for vehicles with an automatic transmission only. Installation in a vehicle equipped with a manual transmission can result in property damage or personal injury.
This unit is for fuel injected gasoline or diesel engines.
Children should not be left unattended in, or be allowed to play with the activating transmitters of any remote starter equipped vehicle.
Do not use the remote starter feature in an enclosed garage or other structure.
The MARS is a very flexible system. It has capabilities, such as sounding the horn, which may or may not be utilized in your installation. It also has many programmable features which can affect its operation. While these are explained as thoroughly as possible in this guide, your Omega dealer or installer is the best source for information about your system.

Warning: The Positive pulse system can be confused with the 5-wire Reversing Polarity system. This is because both systems show +12 Volt pulses on the “Lock” and “Unlock” wires when the vehicle’s switch is pressed respectively. It is critical to identify which system is present, since if +12 Volts is pulsed into a Reversing Polarity system, which rests at ground, a direct short circuit will occur.
3 main differences between a Positive pulse and a Reversing Polarity system:
1) In a Reversing system the Lock/Unlock wires rest at ground, while in a Positive system

3 Wire Positive Pulse Systems
This doorlock system is similar to the 3 wire negative pulse system except the doorlock switches send +12 Volt pulses to operate the doorlock relays/control unit.
Examine the wires on the back of the doorlock switch:
1)One wire will show +12 Volts, regardless of the switch's position.
2)One wire will show +12 Volts only when the switch is pushed to "lock".

•The parking lights will turn on and the Status Light will flash to confirm the starting process (and, optionally, the horn will also chirp 3 times).
•The ignition circuit will turn on.
•Within a few seconds the parking lights will turn off and the starter will engage.
•The engine will start, run, and the starter will be disengaged.
•The parking lights will turn back on and remain on while the MARS is controlling the engine. The status light will pause, and then continue to flash slowly.
•If the engine stalls, the MARS will make two attempts to restart it.
When you leave your vehicle, simply set the climate controls for what you would like to have operating upon remote starting - the heater, defroster or air conditioning.
Upon entering the vehicle place the ignition key in the switch and turn it to the "On" position, and then deactivate the MARS. Do not turn the key to the "Start" position!
22 Gauge Blue Wire: 500mA ( - ) Unlock Output 35
Connection If Desired. The Blue wire supplies a negative pulse for locking the vehicle's doors. Programmable feature #12 changes the single unlock pulse to be a double unlock pulse.
This harness, which plugs into the White 3-pin port on the control module, is the power doorlock outputs by which the MARS operates the vehicle’s power doorlock system (the vehicle must have existing power doorlocks). The doorlock interface needed to allow the system to operate the doorlocks will depend upon the type of power doorlocking system the vehicle is equipped with. The following sections describe typical power doorlocking systems, which are categorized as “3 Wire Negative Pulse”; “3 Wire Positive Pulse”, and “5 Wire Reversing Polarity” systems.
3 Wire Negative Pulse Systems
This power doorlock system is simplest of all doorlocking systems. A Negative pulse system will have only three wires at the doorlock switch.
Examine the wires on the back of the doorlock switch:
1)One wire will show Ground, regardless of the switch's position.
2)One wire will show Ground only when the switch is pushed to "Lock".
3)One wire will show Ground only when the switch is pushed to "Unlock".
The lock & unlock wires coming out of the switch operate the vehicle’s doorlock relays or a control unit with on-board relays, therefore the lock & unlock wires will read Positive voltage, up to +12 Volts, when the switch is at rest. The correct connection point is between the switches and the relays. The Red connector's Green and Blue wires can be connected directly to the vehicle’s Negative pulse system since only a Negative pulse is required to
