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 connection 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 aroun

the remote start unit. If the vehicle is being worked on, this hood switch prevents the remote start activation even if the RF command to start is issued. This switch must be installed in all applications. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or property damage. Mount the switch in the hood locations away from water drain paths. If necessary, the included bracket may be used to move the switch away from rain gutters or allow mount- ing to the firewall behind the hood seal. In bo

YELLOW Wire: Starter Output Careful consideration for the connection of this wire must be made to prevent the vehicle from starting while in gear. Understanding the difference between a me- chanical and an electrical Neutral Start Switch will allow you to properly identify the circuit and select the correct installation method. In addition you will realize why the connection of the safety wire is required for all mechanical switch con- figurations. Failure to make this connection properly

3 Wire Ground Switched Door Lock Circuits: In this application, the Red wire of the 2 pin harness provides a ground pulse during the arming sequence, or pulsed ground lock output. Connect the Red wire to the low current ground signal wire from the factory door lock switch to the factory door lock relay. The Green wire of the 2 pin harness provides a ground pulse during the disarming sequence, or pulsed ground unlock output. Connect the Green wire to the low current ground signal wire from the

Wiring The 4 Pin Auxiliary Output Harness, Connector “A” The auxiliary 4 pin connector provides low current outputs to control various functions in the vehicle during different stages of the Remote Start unit's operation. Understanding these outputs and the time in which they occur will allow you to determine if they are needed for the particular vehicle you are working on as well as how to use them.

Black w/ Light Green Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output After Start The Black w/ Light Green Trace wire will provide a 1 second 250mA pulsed ground output after the vehicle is started under control of the remote start unit. Typically this wire will be used to re-lock the vehicle doors if the doors unlock automatically when the factory anti- theft system is disarmed. Black w/ Red Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output After Shutdown The Black w/ Red Trace wire will provide a 1 second 250 mA pulsed groun

3 Pin Antenna/Receiver, Connector “F” Route the 3 pin connector from the previously installed antenna receiver assemble to the mating connector on the control module. This connector supplies 5 volts, ground and RF data from the antenna receiver to the remote start module. Be certain this connector is firmly seated making good contact to the control unit. 2 Pin LED Harness, Connector “G” Route the twin lead Red and Blue wires from the LED to the remote start control unit and plug the two pin co

To test this circuit, while the vehicle is running under control of the remote start unit, open the vehicle’s hood. The remote start unit should shut down immediately. If not, check the wiring to the control module and the under hood pin switch. DO NOT RELEASE THE VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER IF THIS CIRCUIT DOES NOT PERFORM AS SPECI- FIED. Green w/ Orange Trace Wire: Tachometer Input Signal This wire will continually monitor the engine's tach rate while the unit is under power of the Remote Start

below, a relay will be required. 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/ White trace Wire: Entry Illumination Ground Output This wire provides a 30 second ground output (300 mA Max.) whenever the remote is used to disarm the alarm or to unlock the doors and provides a continuous pulsed output whenever the alarm is triggered. This wire should be connected to an external rel

Start with the system disarmed, turn the ignition switch to the on position then: 1) Press and release the push button valet/program switch 3 times. Siren Chirps once and or Lights flash one time indicating the transmitter program mode successfully entered. See Owners Manual for transmitter programming. Turn the ignition switch off then on to access Bank 2 Keyless/Alarm feature selections. 1 Flash when the ignition transitions off, followed by 2 chirps/Light flashes when the key is turned on ind

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. Mount the control module up and behind the dash securing it in place with cable ties or screws. Be certain that the chosen mounting location will not inhibit any of the controls of the vehicle. 2. Securely harness and tie all wiring up and away from all hot and moving parts that they may come in contact with under the dash board or in the e
