warning! safety first The following safety warnings must be observed at all times: ■ Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized DEI dealer. ■ When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal from the remote control trans- mitter. Therefore, never operate the system in an area that does not have adequate ventilation. The following precautions are the sole responsibility of the user; however, authorized

installation points to remember IMPORTANT! This product is designed for fuel-injected, automatic transmission vehicles only. Installation of this product in a standard transmission vehicle is dangerous and is contrary to the product's intended use. Do not disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft-coded radio. Also avoid disconnecting the battery if the vehicle is equipped with an airbag. Many airbag systems will display a diagnostic code through their warning light after they lose

valet/program switch Ensure that the location you pick for this switch has sufficient clearance to the rear. The switch should be well hidden. It should be placed so that passengers or stored items (such as items placed in a glove box or center 9 console) cannot accidentally bump it. The switch fits in a /32-inch hole. IMPORTANT! When the vehicle is delivered, please show the user where the Valet®/Program switch is located and how to disarm the system using the switch. status LED Things to remem

starter kill relay If the starter kill relay or its connections are immediately visible upon removal of the under-dash panel, they can easily be bypassed. Always make the relay and its connections difficult to discern from the factory wiring! Exposed yellow butt connectors do not look like factory parts, and will not fool anyone! For this reason, routing the starter kill wires away from the steering column is recommended. finding the wires you need Now that you have determined where each compone

finding the 12V switched ignition wire The ignition wire is powered when the key is in the run or start position. This is because the ignition wire powers the ignition system (spark plugs, coil) as well as the fuel delivery system (fuel pump, fuel injection computer). Accessory wires lose power when the key is in the start position to make more current available to the starter motor. How to find (+)12V ignition with your multimeter: 1. Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine). 2. Attach the

finding a (+/-) parking light wire Most vehicles use a (+) parking light circuit. The (+) parking light wire is often found near the light switch. In many vehicles the light switch is built into the turn signal lever; in these vehicles the parking light wire can be found in the steering column. The same wire can often be accessed in the kick panel or running board. NOTE: Many Toyotas and other Asian vehicles, send a (-) signal from the switch to a relay. The relay then sends (+)12V to the bulbs

finding the accessory wire An accessory wire will show +12V when the key is in the accessory and run positions. It will not show +12V during the cranking cycle. There will often be more than one accessory wire in the ignition harness. The correct acces- sory wire will power the vehicle's climate control system. Some vehicles may have separate wires for the blower motor and the air conditioning compressor. In such cases, it will be necessary to add a relay to power the second accessory wire. find

wiring the control unit The wiring harness supplied with this unit is the standard 12-pin harness used by DEI® security systems. Three wires in the plug are not used. The upgrade from this unit to a security system would simply require unplugging and exchanging control units and connecting the necessary wires to the vehicle. The functions of all the wires that are used in the primary harness are displayed in the following wiring diagram and their connections are described in the wire connection

This output ceases as soon as the system is disarmed. The orange wire is pre-wired to control the 8618 starter kill relay. NOTE: If connecting the orange wire to control another module, such as a 529T or 530T window controller, a 1 amp diode (type 1N4004) will be required. Insert the diode as shown below. IMPORTANT!

H1/10 BROWN (-) horn honk output This wire supplies a 200 mA (-) output that can be used to honk the vehicle horn. It outputs a single pulse when locking the doors with the remote, and two pulses when unlocking with the remote. This wire will also output pulses for 30 seconds when the Panic Mode is activated. If the vehicle has a (+) horn circuit, an optional relay can be used to interface with the system, as shown below. H1/11 RED (+)12V constant power input Before connecting this wire, remove

relay satellite key switch interface The five heavy gauge wires leading from the relay satellite are used to energize high current circuits in the vehicle. It is crucial that these connections are made correctly so that they are capable of handling the current demands. For this reason, scotch locks, T-taps and other such connectors should not be used.

harness 2 (H2), 2-pin auxiliary plug H2/1 GRAY/BLACK (-) diesel wait-to-start bulb input Connect this wire to the wire in the vehicle that sends the signal to turn on the WAIT-TO-START bulb in the dash- board. In most diesels the wire is negative (ground turns on the bulb) and the GRAY/BLACK can be directly connected to the wire in the vehicle. If the vehicle uses a positive wire (12V to turn on the bulb) a relay must be used to change the polarity. (See Finding the Wires You Need section of thi

H2/2 LIGHT GREEN/BLACK (-) auxiliary output This wire sends a negative pulse every time the remote start is activated. This can be used to pulse the disarm wire of the vehicle's factory anti-theft device. Use a relay to send a (-) or (+) pulse to the disarm wire as shown in the diagrams below. This wire can also be used as a special accessory output. (See Feature Descriptions section of this guide.)

neutral safety switch interface Some vehicles combine the column shift mechanism and the mechanical neutral safety switch into one mechan- ical part. In these vehicles, it is impossible to interface the remote start system before the neutral safety switch. With this type of vehicle, if the vehicle is left in a drive gear and the remote start system is activated, the vehicle will move and may cause damage to persons or property.
