Important Information
1.DO NOT disconnect the battery cables! Make battery connections by removing the lug nuts from the battery clamps without detaching the clamp itself.
2.Turn off the interior lights or remove the dome light fuse before starting the installation; otherwise, leaving the door(s) open during installation will drain the battery.
3.Use a voltmeter. DO NOT USE A TEST LIGHT! Test lights have a current drain that will damage the vehicle’s onboard computer, and if you probe the wrong wire, could deploy the vehicle’s air bag(s).
4.Make all connections with the supplied crimp connectors or solder and shrink tube. DO
NOT use bite-type connectors.
5.Route the system’s ground and power wires directly to the vehicle battery or fuse box.
6.Keep extension as short as possible. Use same-gauge wire for short extensions, larger gauge for longer extensions. DO NOT USE SPEAKER WIRE!
7.Discuss placement of the LED, valet switch, window decals, etc. with the vehicle owner prior to installation.
8.DO NOT mount components nor route wires near hot or moving vehicle parts. Clifford components must not impede vehicle servicing or operation.
9.DO NOT mount any Clifford sensor in the engine compartment (with the exception of the OmniSensor sensing module).
10.Follow the system’s Sequence of Installation to ensure proper installation and testing.
11.Place the owner’s manual in the glove box.
Note: Clifford Electronics’ web site for Authorized Clifford Dealers has detailed descriptions of wire colors and locations for most foreign and domestic vehicles. Installation diagrams and programming procedures for older Clifford products are also available . Just go to www.clifforddealers.com for assistance 24-hours per day.

Passenger Compartment Connections
Control Unit and Antenna
The ACE 2000 control unit must be installed inside the vehicle. Under no circumstances should the unit be installed under the hood or other similarly hostile environment.
1.Select an area behind the dash to mount the control unit using wire ties, but do not permanently affix it until all wiring and testing is complete.
2.Plug the 18” CliffNet DataPort Extension Cable into the control unit. Make sure the receptacle end will be easily accessible after the dash has been secured back to its original position. This extension cable ensures ease of service later on.
3.Run the antenna either up the window pillar or under the dash, away from metal. Do not fold the excess cable or antenna wire. Do not make hard, sharp bends.
Door Trigger/Interior Light Supply
Door triggers on most autos are negative (except most Rolls-Royce and Ford autos). To determine door trigger polarity, use the following procedure:
1.Find the wire coming off the rear of the vehicle door switch.
2.Connect the negative voltmeter lead to ground.
3.Find the one wire that shows +12 volts when the switch is pressed in and 0 volts when released. This is a negative trigger door wire.
4.If you don’t get the indications noted in step 3, find the one wire that shows 0 volts when the switch is pressed in and +12 volts when released. This is a positive trigger door wire.
5.Connect the system’s thin GRAY wire to the door wire.
6.If the door trigger is negative, no further installation is required.

Door Trigger/Interior Light Supply (Continued)
7.If the door trigger is positive, program for positive using the Installer-Programmable features matrix on page 14.
8.If dome light supervision is desired, connect the relay as shown in the ACE 2000 diagram. nConnect the BROWN/WHITE wire to terminal 86
nTap a wire in to the RED/WHITE wire (+12V) and connect it to terminal 85. nTap a wire into the GRAY wire and connect to terminal 30.
nConnect terminal 87 to positive if the door trigger is positive (+12V RED/WHITE wire), or connect terminal 87 to negative if the door trigger is negative.

Installation diagrams and programming procedures for older Clifford products are also available . Just go to www.clifforddealers.com for assistance 24-hours per day.
Central Door Locking System
Please refer to the Door Locks section below for information on circuit types and connections.
When adding an IntelliStart 4 to the ACE 2000, it is recommended that RPM-dependent door locking be selected. The RPM-dependent door locking feature is only available with the addition of the IntelliStart 4.
Door Locks
WARNING: If the power door locks do not operate properly when the system is armed and disarmed, DO NOT USE THE VEHICLE’S DOOR LOCK SWITCH! If the control unit’s door lock wires are miswired, permanent damage to the control unit or to the car’s electrical system and door lock servos will result. If you require assistance, call the Clifford Technical Support Helpline PRIOR to wiring the door locks.
If the vehicle is not equipped with power door locks, you may optionally add up to four #60-516 DoorLock Servos. Some systems may require adding relays.
Determining the Door Lock System Type
1.Remove the door lock switch on the driver’s side of the vehicle to reveal the switch wires.
a.If there are four or more wires, make the connections shown in Diagram 4 for reverse polarity.
b.If there are three wires, proceed to step 2.
c.If the vehicle is a Nissan and it does not have a door lock switch, find the single wire in the driver’s kick panel that shows ground when the locks are unlocked and “open” when the locks are locked. Cut this wire and make the connections shown in Door
Lock/Unlock Diagram 3.
2.Connect the negative voltmeter lead to ground and probe each wire while locking/unlocking. If the voltmeter show +12v while activating the switch, make the connections shown in Door Lock/Unlock Diagram 1 for positive trigger. Otherwise, go to step 3.
a.On systems without lock/unlock relays (Arrow 3, etc.) you must program for positive door locks (factory setting is negative)when the system has been powered up.
3.Repeat step 2 with the negative voltmeter lead connected to +12v. If the voltmeter shows +12v while activating the switch, make the connections shown in Door Lock/Unlock Diagram 2 for negative trigger.
4.Locks controlled from the driver’s door key require installation of just one #60-516 servo in the driver’s door. Vehicles without factory power locks require a servo in each door. Mount the servo(s) and make the connections shown in Door Lock/Unlock Diagram 5 for adding servos.
