PRE-INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

BEFORE BEGINNING, check all vehicle manufacturer cautions and warnings regarding electrical service (AIR BAGS, ABS

BRAKES, ENGINE / BODY COMPUTER AND BATTERY).

PLAN OUT YOUR INSTALLATION and determine most suitable locations for all components to be placed. These components
include: the module itself, valet/program button, possible relays, and antenna/receiver (DS-1,
does not include antenna or remotes.) Allow enough wire to create a service loop with strain relief, should servicing be required.
This will also allow easier access and mounting.

DAMAGE to the Data Start unit resulting from incorrect installation or failure to follow guidelines stated in this book will not be
covered under warranty and will be subject to repair or replacement charges.

USE A VOLT OHM METER to test and locate all connections. Test Lights can damage a vehicle’s computer systems.

ADDITIONAL PARTS, which are not inc

extra relays or Anti-Theft System Bypass modules.

luded with this unit, may be needed for your particular vehicle. These items may include

INSTALLATION CAUTIONS & WARNINGS

This System is a Low Current Remote Start that only works in Data Mode with a Bypass Module.
DO NOT route any wiring that may become entangled with brake, gas pedals, steering column or any other moving parts

in the vehicle.
DO NOT exceed the rated output current of any circuit on the Remote start module. Failure to observe this warning will

result in damage to the unit not covered under warranty.
DO NOT remote start the vehicle in a closed garage! Make sure that the garage door is open or there is adequate

ventilation. Failure to observe this rule could result in injury or death from poisonous Carbon Monoxide fumes.

WIRING 5 Pin Power Plug

RED: 12 Volt Power Source 10 Amp

Connect to a constant power source at battery or fuse box when powering the Pink and Pink/white wire. The ignition
switch on many new vehicles have only a 2 or 3 amp power wire so this can not be used. Not necessary to connect
when using a Data Module with a “T” harness plug. The data plug can supply 1 amp to operate the electronics.

BLACK: MAIN SYSTEM GROUND

Connect to chassis metal of the vehicle. An existing bolt or screw may provide an adequate ground, or drill a small hole,
scrape away paint and attach using a sheet metal screw & star washer. This wire must be connected to a proper ground
or undesirable and inconsistent operation will occur. Do not use Factory ground locations.

PINK/WHITE: Programmable Option #4

This is an optional multi-function output wire the can be configured as a Second IGN, ACC or STARTER output. Use
Option #4 to select ACC, IGN or STARTER. The DEFAULT setting is IGNITION.

PINK: Ignition Input/Output 10 Amp Max

This is the ignition source for programming system. This also supplies 12 volts out during Ignition and Start for remote
starting vehicle. Some data modules supply this function so may not be necessary to connect. Consult installation
guide of data module

WHITE: Parking Light Output (-) 500 milliamp

This is used to activate marker lights during remote start and signal remote lock and unlock.

OPTIONAL 8 Pin Plug

This plug is optional and may not be needed with many databus bypass modules. Check the databus guide for latest
manual with wiring information before using this plug. These are optional features that may not be included with the
bypass module.

YELLOW BLACK OUTPUT: Ground Out when Running (-) 500 milliamp

The Ground Out when Running is required by some bypass modules. This wire turns on when the remote start button is
pressed and stays on through the duration of the remote start.

GREEN: LOCK OUTPUT (-) 500 milliamp (See page 6 for basic door lock diagrams).

BLUE: UNLOCK OUTPUT (-) 500 milliamp (See page 6 for basic door lock diagrams).

ORANGE: OEM REARM OUTPUT (-) 500 milliamp

This wire provides a ground pulse to rearm the vehicles' FACTORY anti-theft system after a timed-out or aborted remote
start. Connect this wire to the vehicles' anti-theft rearm wire or to the door pin circuit depending on your requirements.
This wire may be needed to pulse the door pin circuit on vehicles with retained accessory power.

ORANGE BLACK: OEM DISARM OUTPUT (-) 500 milliamp

This wire provides a Ground pulse to disarm the vehicles' Factory anti-theft system prior to a Remote Start. Connect this
wire to the vehicles' anti-theft disarm wire. This wire is sometimes found coming off the Driver's door key switch or at the
Factory Anti-theft control module. This wire may not be needed if Factory Security only requires a door unlock pulse.

GRAY: (-) NEGATIVE HOOD SWITCH

Connect the Gray wire to a switch that is at ground when the hood is open. If an existing switch is not available, then we
recommend one to be installed. When this wire is grounded, the remote start is inhibited. The unit will not attempt to start
if hood is open.

PURPLE: (12V) BRAKE RESET

Connect the Purple wire to the side of brake pedal switch that shows 12 volts ONLY when pedal is depressed. This is the
wire that turns off the remote start once the driver’s key is in the Ignition and turned to the ON position.

4

AUX Output (Trunk Release – Dome Light – Horn Honk)

BROWN: AUX OUTPUT (-) 500 milliamp

This output is programmable for 3 modes of operation. See Programming Option #9 Section.

1. 30 second Dome Light output.

2. Momentary ½ second output (Default).

3. Horn Honk output.

Note: Some vehicles like Lexus and Toyota require a 2 to 3 second output for the Trunk Pop to operate. This output is
selectable for Momentary ½ second (default) or a Press and Hold function Option 6-3 (output stays on until Transmitter
button is released).
