The system must be placed into Service Mode before any service work
is started on the vehicle. It is the sole responsibility of the vehicle owner
to ensure that this is done. The manufacturer accepts no liability or
responsibility for accidental starting of the vehicle.

Recommended Installation Procedures

Remote car starters and alarms should be professionally
installed. Review the installation and owner manuals and acquire a

vehicle wiring diagram for the vehicle to be worked on. Take a few
moments to walk around the vehicle looking for any damages and
make note if any are found. Also check other functions such as the
lighting system, warning or check engine lights. Check if the vehicle
has a factory security or anti-theft system (Transponder or PASS­LOCK). These systems will require additional parts and labor to
complete the installation. Use of the proper tools and testing
equipment is also very important. Never use a grounding style test
light. Use only a circuit safe test light or digital Volt/Ohm meter to
test for wires in the vehicle. It is the sole responsibility of the installer
to test and verify all connections.

Proper Connections - Remote Starters can handle loads of up to
30 amps for extended periods of time. It is critical to insure that all
high current connections are properly soldered and insulated with
quality electrical tape. Failing to insure proper connections will result
in warranty being VOID and can result in damage to the vehicle and
remote starter module. The manufacture is not responsible for any
such damages. It only takes a few more minutes to do the job right.

Under Hood Connections - Route the hood pin and tach wire
through the firewall into the engine compartment. If possible route
the wires through a factory rubber grommet. If drilling a hole through
the firewall, BE CAREFUL. Always check for obstructions on both
sides of the firewall. After drilling, use a snap in grommet to protect
the wires from sharp edges. Use split loom to insulate the wires, route
the wires clear of moving parts and extreme heat. The hood pin
switch must always be installed and the tach wire should always be
soldered and taped properly.

Recommended Installation Procedures

Mounting The Control Module - Never mount the module in the
engine compartment. Select a location under the dash to install the
main module. Be certain that the module is securely attached and
does not obstruct any serviceable areas. Do not force or jam the
module into tight places instead of mounting. The module must be
free from all moving parts such as brake, clutch and gas pedal
linkages. Do not place the module directly in front of a heater vent.

Installing the External Long Range Antenna - To insure the best
possible reception, place the antenna in the center of the windshield
below the tint screen and behind the rear view mirror. Before
attaching to the glass ensure that the surface is clean and dry. Run
the cable under the head liner and behind the A-pillar panel. Be
careful not to pinch the antenna cable. Plug the antenna into the

BLUE connector on the Control Module.

Testing The System - When the installation is complete, it will be

necessary to test that the system is working correctly. The system’s
default programming will work on the majority of vehicles, but might
need to be adjusted for some applications. If the installation
requires special timing or additional features, proceed to Program
Mode. The system must be Tach Learned (Tachless learned on TL
models) before the remote starter will make a start attempt. If the
remote starter does not make a start attempt check if the park lights
are flashing a diagnostic code, if so look the code up in the
Diagnostic Chart to find the shutdown input that is preventing the
system from starting. If the vehicle does make a start attempt but
fails to start. Check all connections and insure that all wiring is
connected correctly. The vehicle may be equipped with a factory
anti-theft system. Vehicles equipped with factory anti-theft systems
will usually have some sort of Security or Anti-Theft light located in
the instrument cluster.
