The APS-55 Remote Start/Keyless Entry System is designed to be used with Automatic Transmission Vehicles Only! The unit provides wait to start input for glow plug pre-heat which will be used for all diesel applications. If this wire is not connected, then the unit will remain in the Gasoline mode setting which will crank the car when the RF signal is received with no delay. Regardless of the vehicle, Gasoline or Diesel, for every installation, the vehicle MUST HAVE a Tach Signal Input, and an

LIGHT BLUE Wire: Ignition 3 / Shock Disable Output This wire provides a 300mA ground output that becomes active 3 seconds before the Remote Start Unit initializes, and remains grounded while running plus an additional 4 seconds after the Remote Start Unit turns off. In all of the applications described below, a relay will be required. The Light Blue wire can be used to accommodate the following situations: A. Shock Sensor By Pass: If there is Shock Sensor used with an alarm system and it is n

DARK GREEN Wire: Tach Sensor Input This wire will continually monitor the engine tach rate while the unit is under power of the Remote Start module. This wire will be routed to the vehicle ECM tach input or through the firewall into the engine com- partment and connect to the negative side of the ignition coil. This Remote Start unit learns the tach rate of the vehicle and in most cases will operate properly from one multi coil pack regardless of the number of cylinders. If the vehicle has a

3 Wire Positive Switched Door Locks: In this application, the Red wire of the two pin harness provides a + 12 volt pulse during the disarming sequence, or pulsed 12 volt unlock output. Connect the Red wire to the low current 12 volt signal wire from the factory door unlock switch to the factory door unlock relay. The Green wire of the two pin harness provides a + 12 volt pulse during the arming sequence or pulsed 12 volt lock output. Connect the Green wire to the low current 12 volt signal

Multi Coil Pack Adaptor: (Optional) The multi coil pack adaptor, (P/N 136B1400), is designed for use with vehicles that do not respond to single coil tach programming. Although the tach resolution of this circuit is designed to interface direct with most vehicles, there may be an occasion where the following circuit may be required. To use the adaptor, the Green/Black wires must connect to the negative side of the ignition coil(s). 1. For vehicles utilizing independent coils per cylinder, con

If the unit fails this test, recheck your enable switch connection to the Ground and the Black/White wire of the Audiovox Remote Start Unit. If you have a plug in enable switch, check that the two pin connector is firmly seated in the mating connector on the control module. DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE OPERATION OF THE MANUAL SHUT DOWN / ENABLE FEATURE.

COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION: After you have confirmed the operation of the Audiovox Remote Start unit and tested all the safety features of the system: 1. If you have not done so already, place the red rubber handle cover over the handle of the control switch for ease of identification. This will allow your customer to distinguish the Remote Start control switch from the program switch. 2. Mount the control module up and behind the dash securing it in place with cable ties or screws. Be cert
