7 Pin Main Harness 1 BLACK/WHITE ILLUMINATED ENTRY OUTPUT ( - ) This wire provides a ( - ) 500mA output for 30 seconds when the system is disarmed capable of driving relays. Locate the vehicle’s dome light or pin switch wire. Verification: This wire will register positive voltage or ground when the vehicle's dome light is turned ON. 2 BROWN/BLACK HORN OUTPUT ( - ) Locate the vehicle’s horn wire.
5 PURPLE/WHITE TACH INPUT Locate the vehicle’s ignition coil or fuel injector in the engine compartment. Verification: Test using the following procedure: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Set voltmeter to AC VOLTS. Attach positive lead of a volt meter to a constant 12-volt source. Attach negative lead of a volt meter to the wire to be tested. Start the engine. Have someone press on the gas pedal slightly as you monitor the meter.
3 Pin Parking Light Harness 1 BLACK GROUND Connect the BLACK wire to a solid chassis ground point using a ring terminal and self tapping screw (not supplied). Scrape away paint from the grounding point to ensure a good connection. The recommended grounding point is a metal surface in the driver’s side kick panel area. NOTE: Do not ground the BLACK wire with any other vehicle components.
2 RED BATTERY 12V ( + ) Locate 1 of the vehicle’s constant 12 Volt battery wires at the ignition switch. Verification: This wire will register ( + ) voltage in all positions of the ignition switch. Connect the RED wire to the constant 12 Volt battery wire. NOTE: Remove all fuses until all connections are made. 3 ORANGE ACCESSORY 1 ( + ) Locate the vehicle’s accessory wire at the ignition switch.
6 PINK IGNITION 1 ( + ) Locate the vehicle’s ignition wire at the ignition switch. Verification: This wire registers voltage when the key is turned to the ON (or RUN) position. The voltage does not drop out when the key is turned to the START (or CRANK) position. Connect the PINK wire to the vehicle’s Ignition wire. This wire is also used for Ignition 1 Output. 4 Pin Alternate Harness 1 BLACK/YELLOW PULSE DURING CRANK ( - ) Locate the vehicle’s second starter (crank) wire at the ignition switch.
4 LT GREEN/BLACK FACTORY DISARM / PULSE BEFORE START ( - ) This wire will supply a ( - ) 500mA pulse both upon disarming the system and when the remote start feature is activated. Locate the factory perimeter alarm disarm wire from the key cylinder inside the drivers door. Verification: This wire registers ground if the key is turned to the unlock position in the driver’s door cylinder. This output is configurable in option programming.
Negative Switching Locks All Door Lock and Unlock: Locate the lock / unlock wire at the vehicle’s lock / unlock switch. Verification: These wires will register ground when the Lock and Unlock switches are activated. Connect the GREEN and BLUE wires shown in the diagram below. Negative Locks: GREEN (-) Lock Output Lock Vehicle Door Lock Control Relays Unlock BLUE (-) Unlock Output Positive Switching Locks All Door Lock and Unlock: Locate the lock / unlock wire at the vehicle’s lock / unlock switch.
Reverse Polarity Locks (5-Wire Door locks) All Door Lock and Unlock: Locate the lock / unlock wire at the vehicle’s lock / unlock switch. Verification: These wires will rest at ground and register positive voltage when the Lock and Unlock switches are activated. Connect the GREEN and BLUE or BLUE/GREEN wires shown in the diagram below using (2) SPDT relays (not supplied).
Positive Multiplexed Locks All Door Lock and Unlock: Locate the lock / unlock wire at the vehicle’s lock / unlock switch. Verification: This wire will show variable positive voltage when the switch is activated. Please consult the wire and location chart for specific resistor values for your vehicle. Connect the GREEN and BLUE or BLUE/GREEN wires shown in the diagram below using (2) SPDT relays (not supplied).
Additional Ports Antenna / LED / Programming Port Mount the supplied antenna/receiver to a clear spot on the vehicle's windshield that will not block the driver's vision. A good location is usually high on the windshield near the rear view mirror. Be careful not to mount the antenna/receiver on any metallic window film, as this will effect system range. Route the antenna/ receiver cable to the control module and plug into the antenna port.
Set Up & Programming Transmitter Programming - Feature Bank 1 1. Turn the ignition ON. 2. Press and hold the valet/override button. 3. Within 10 seconds the system will chirp (3) three times. 4. Press 1 button of each transmitter you wish to program. 5. The system will respond with 1 chirp for each accepted transmitter. 6. Pressing the override button at anytime during programming will advance to the next bank. NOTE: The system will exit transmitter programming after 15 seconds of inactivity.
Feature Bank 1 - 3 Chirps Transmitter Programming Refer to transmitter programming. 1 9 1 2 Feature Bank 2 - 4 Chirps Security Control 1 LED Flash 2 LED Flash Silent Choice ON OFF Feature 2 - 8: N/A N/A DBI Port Protocol DBI Protocol ADS Protocol Feature Bank 3 - 5 Chirps Output Control 1 LED Flash Extended Lock Pulse Factory Disarm Lt Green / Black 3 LED Flash 4 LED Flash 5 LED Flash 6 LED Flash 2 LED Flash 3 LED Flash 4 LED Flash 5 LED Flash 6 LED Flash 1 Second 3.

Tach Programming The unit will not operate unless a tach signal is programmed or the tachless option is turned ON. If an attempt is made to start the vehicle via the remote start without first programming tach, the unit will flash the parking lights 7 times indicating tach has not been learned and stored. If the tach rate is not properly programmed to the specific vehicle, the unit may not realize that the vehicle is running in certain instances and reengage the starter motor.
Feature Descriptions Feature Bank 2 - Security 1 - Silent Choice: Controls the normal arm/disarm chirps of the security system. ON - Silent arming/disarming upon first press of lock/unlock, pressing lock/ unlock a second time will activate the arm/disarm chirps respectively. The system will only sound the arm/disarm chirps upon a second press of the lock/unlock buttons. OFF - normal arm/disarm chirps upon the first press of lock/unlock. 2 - 8 Not available on this model.
2 - Factory Disarm - Lt Green/Black Output: Controls the timing of the LT. GREEN/BLACK factory disarm output. Factory Disarm - Single 1 second pulse with unlock and remote start activation. 2nd Unlock - Same output as unlock with 2nd press of unlock. Start Status - Single 1 second pulse with unlock and continuous output during the remote start cycle. NOTE: On this model the Lt Green / Black Output wire can be configured in Bank 3 or Bank 5.
Feature Bank 4 - Remote Start Control 1 - RF Start Chirp: Turns remote start activation confirmation chirps ON or OFF. 2 - Run Time: Controls the time in minutes that the vehicle will stay running under control of the remote start until the system times out. The system may also be shut down at any time by use of the transmitter or system shutdowns. 3 - Running Lights: Controls the WHITE parking light output wire during remote start. Steady - Parking lights constant during the remote start cycle.
7 - Crank Average / Crank Time: The length of time in which the remote start will crank the vehicle’s starter. Crank Average - Determines crank time by averaging the last 8 times the vehicle was started with the key. Preset Time - Preset starter output time. (see crank time) 8 - Gas / Diesel: Selects engine type and delay time for the starter output wire during remote start activation. Gas - Gasoline engine, no delay for the starter output wire.
Feature Bank 5 - 4 Pin Alternate Output Control 1 - Lt Green/Black Output : Controls the LT GREEN/BLACK output activation type and timing. Pulse before Start / During Unlock - 1 second pulse when remote start is activated. Also a 1 second pulse when unlock is pressed. Ground While Running - Continuous output for the entire remote start sequence until after the vehicle shuts down. Ignition - Output becomes active with the same timing as the ignition output and does not drop out during crank.
4 - Black/Yellow Output : Controls the BLACK/YELLOW output activation type and timing. Pulse During Crank - Output becomes active with the same timing as the starter output wire, during crank only. Ground While Running - Continuous output for the entire remote start sequence until after the vehicle shuts down. Ignition - Output becomes active with the same timing as the ignition output and does not drop out during crank.
Remote Start Shutdown Diagnostics If the remote start shuts down or fails to start, the parking lights will flash one of the patterns below indicating the shutdown input. To manually enter diagnostics and view the last shutdown, turn the ignition ON and press and release the button.
