INSTALLATION OF THE MAJOR COMPONENTS: CONTROL MODULE: Select a mounting location inside the passenger compartment (up behind the dashboard). The mounting location selected must be within 24" of the ignition switch wiring harness to allow con- nection of the 6 pin main wiring harness. Be certain that the chosen location will not interfere with proper operation of the vehicle. Avoid mounting the module to or routing the wiring around the steering shaft/column, as the module or wiring may wrap a

SIREN: Select a location in the engine compartment that is not accessible from below the vehicle. The selected location must be clear of hot or moving parts within the engine compartment The siren must be pointed downward to prevent water retention and the flared end must be pointed away from and out of the engine compartment for maximum sound distribution. Before secur- ing the siren, check behind your chosen location to assure that the mounting screws will not penetrate any factory wiring o

DO NOT PLUG THE SIX PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS OR THE MULTI PIN INPUT / OUTPUT HARNESS INTO THE CONTROL MODULE UNTIL ALL CONNECTIONS TO THE VEHICLE HAVE BEEN MADE. AFTER SELECTING YOUR TARGET WIRES AS DEFINED BELOW, DISCON- NECT THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE FROM THE VEHICLE BATTERY PRIOR TO MAKING ANY CONNECTIONS. Note: Do not remove the fuse holders from this wire harness. Fuses must be used and located as close as possible to the power source for adequate protection of the vehicle. WIRING THE 6 P

BLUE Wire: Ignition 1 Output Connect this wire to the ignition 1 wire from the ignition switch. This wire will show +12 volts when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" or "RUN" and the "START" or CRANK" positions, and will have 0 volts when the key is turned to the "OFF" and "ACCESSORY" positions. GREEN Wire: Ignition 2 Output Connect this wire to the ignition 2 wire from the ignition switch. This wire will show + 12 volts when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" or "RUN" position and i

false triggering of the factory alarm when the remote start unit engages or when the transmitter is used to unlock the doors. NOTE: This output can be selected to operate like the door lock output as set in alarm feature setting #1 by selecting feature #13 of Bank 3 to as door unlock pulse. Black w/ Light Green Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output After Start The Black w/ Light Green Trace wire will provide a 1 second 250 mA pulsed ground output after the vehicle is started under control of the rem

Orange: Ground While Armed Output This wire provides a 300 mA ground output when the alarm circuit is armed to control the starter inhibit relay. Connect the Orange wire to terminal #86 (orange wire) of the relay provided. Connect terminal #85 (red wire) of the relay to an ignition wire in the vehicle that is +12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the on and start positions and off when the key is off. Locate and cut the low current start solenoid wire found at the vehicles ignition

Brown Wire: Negative Door Trigger If the vehicle's door courtesy light switches ground when the door is opened, (Most GMs and Imports), you must connect this wire to the negative output from one of the vehicle's door pin switches. In most cases the Brown wire will need to be connected to only one door switch no matter how many doors the vehicle has as most door lighting circuits are wired in parallel. This wire will be shunted when remote starting the vehicle and will remain shunted, if activ

Green/Yellow Wire: DIESEL WAIT TO START INPUT The green/yellow wire, when connected to the wire that get + 12 volts during the glow plug preheat stage will delay the starter output until this wire drops the 12 volts. In other words, in a Diesel vehicle with glow plug preheat circuit, when the ignition is turned on, the vehicle will not crank until the glow plugs are hot enough to fire the atomized fuel oil when injected into the cylinder. By connecting this wire to the glow plug + 12 volt wire

The Light Blue wire can be used to accommodate the following situations: A. Shock Sensor By Pass: B. Additional Ignition Output: C. GM VATS Key Override: Green w/ Black Trace Wire: 250 mA Latched Channel 4 Output The Green w/ Black Trace wire supplies a 300 mA switched output whenever channel four of the receiver is accessed. Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button(s) will access channel four and will remain active, for up to 20 seconds, as long as the transmitter button(s) is held.
