Included in the Kit Before beginning the installation, please review the Installation Guide —particularly the Wiring Diagram and the Programming Options. Note: It is very important that you familiarize yourself with the programming and operation of the system, even if you have already installed a similar system in the past. There are many great new features you may overlook if you do not read the Guide–you would not maximize the potential of the unit. Prior to the installation, make sure t

Installation Order The following is a suggested order for the Installation procedure. It is intended as a guide for novices, to help make the process of installing a remote starter module easier. Time is wasted by rewiring the module when mistakes are made. Also, the neatness of the installation is lessened every time the module is taken down and the wiring is “corrected”. A messy installation is harder to trouble shoot if there are problems later on. The actual “how to install” is not cove

when the module is in the vehicle. The fuses on the power wires should be removed during the pre-wire stage. The fuses will not be put back in until the powering stage of the installation. − Once the pre-wiring is finished, the module can be brought into the vehicle. Before the module is mounted, connect the antenna, the valet switch, shock sensor (if applicable) and LED to the module. With everything connected to the module, it can now be mounted in the vehicle.

A basic introduction to the Relay What is a relay? A device that responds to a small current or voltage change by activating switches or other devices in an electric circuit. An electromagnetic switch, remote-controlled switch, a switching device. Why are Relays used? Relays can have several purposes in remote car starter installations. They are used mainly for isolation, inversion, interruption, strengthening current, and for powering multiple wires from one source SAFELY. How does it

quenching/suppression diode, and that the Negative trigger is on the same terminal of the relay as the Anode (+ or non-striped side) of the quenching/ suppression diode. When a relay’s coil is energized, a magnetic field is created and energy is stored in the coil. When power is removed from the coil, the magnetic field collapses. This causes a Reverse Voltage to be generated and can sometimes reach 200 volts. A quenching diode absorbs this reverse voltage spike. A closer look at a relay

Problem: Some vehicle circuits need to be isolated from feedback. In some cases, when a vehicle is remote started, feedback occurs on a circuit and powers another device or switch that was not intended to be powered during the remote starts. The following example will be a Positive (+) Parking Light circuit that feeds back and activates the windshield wipers during remote starts. Solution: When power is applied to the OEM Parking light wire, it back feeds through the parking light switch

the relay is activated, +12 volts from 87 is sent through 30, and the OEM trunk switch is activated, by the positive pulse. Interruption: Example: Creating a Starter Kill relay to prevent unauthorized starting of the vehicle. Problem: The OEM starter circuit needs to be disabled only when theft is attempted. Solution: A relay is used to interrupt the OEM starter wire. There is an output on the remote start module especially for this purpose (Starter Kill output). The relay connections:

Harness Description 6-pin Main Ignition Harness (a.k.a.

(Also known as the “wait-to-start light”.) The purpose of the Glow-plug circuit on diesel vehicles is to pre-heat the Combustion Chamber before the vehicle is started. When a Remote Starter is installed on a diesel vehicle, the Glow- plug section of the Ignition circuit must be activated and allowed to operate before the vehicle is remote- started. For that purpose, the Glow-plug input wire of the module must be connected to the Glow-plug indicator light of the vehicle. The module will only

Manual or Automatic Transmission This module may be installed on vehicles with manual or automatic transmissions. It is originally configured for manual transmissions. If the vehicle you are working on is automatic, it is mandatory to make a few quick and easy modifications before the unit is connected. In the event that the configuration requires changes afterwards, a complete reset will be necessary before those changes become effective. To install this unit in a vehicle with a manual tr

Clutch Bypass In order to remote start a manual transmission vehicle, the clutch switch must be bypassed. Clutch safety switch circuits can take many forms. Listed below are the most common ones. Some vehicles may also have a separate or combined switch on the clutch pedal for cruise control. Usually a cruise control switch reacts the moment you touch the pedal, whereas a clutch switch reacts only when the pedal is near the floor. Once the circuit type has been determined, you must recreat
