NOTE: If module is still in Tach Watch Lockout
move tach wire to a better tach source and perform
an Automatic Tach Setting. Repeat steps 1 to 5.
DIESEL ENGINES
All systems are equipped with a dedicated “GLOW
PLUG” input (pin #14).
This input must be wired to the “Wait to Start”
light in the vehicle and must receive 12 volts for as
long as the light is ON. When this input is used a
protection diode must be installed on the brake
input.
Note: Diesel mode must be programmed for this to
work.
SETTING THE UNIT INTO READY MODE
The unit does not come with channel 2 operational
from the box.
What this means is that to remote start the vehicle
you must first get the unit into Ready Mode.
To get into ready you must do the following:
1. Close all doors.
2. Make sure shifter is in neutral.
3. Start vehicle with the key.
4. Apply the Parking brake
5. Within 20sec. Push any button on transmitter
(Lights will flash 3 times quickly, and stay
ON)
6. Remove the key vehicle will stay running.
7. Exit the vehicle and close the door.
8. Press and hold any button until the vehicle
shuts down.
The vehicle will now be in ready mode, to start
press button 2 on the transmitter.
REMAINING IN READY MODE
Once the vehicle is in Ready Mode you can start
and stop the vehicle at will.
However, should any of the following occur the
vehicle would come out of Ready Mode thus
eliminating the remote start option until Ready
Mode is restored.
1. Doors opened.
2. Hood opened.
3. Brakes pressed.
4. Parking brake disengaged.
5. Key turned to the ON position.
Should any of the above occur, ready mode will be
cancelled.
*NOTE: The unit will notify the user that it has
exited Ready Mode by giving three slow flashes
of the vehicles parking lights.
CLUTCH BYPASSING
Most manual transmission vehicles will
require the clutch to be pressed in order for
the vehicle to crank. This being true under
remote start as well, so a clutch bypass must
be performed.
A simple thing to look for when performing a
bypass, is the make of vehicle you are working on,
typically most domestic vehicles have a direct feed
wire at the clutch switch, this means that the starter
wire in the vehicle becomes continuous with
+12volts when the clutch is pressed.
While import cars typically have a relay that is
controlled with the clutch pedal. This means that
when the clutch is pressed it will send a signal to a
relay, allowing the vehicle to start.
PARKING BRAKE WIRE
The system has a parking brake input; this
input is used as part of the Ready Mode
sequence and must be connected. This input
is supposed to be a ground. All vehicles are
equipped with a parking brake, and all use a
negative signal.
The easiest location to find this wire is at the
parking brake housing, there will usually only be
one wire coming of the housing thus eliminating
the chance of error.
PROGRAMMABLE 5
th
RELAY
The 4500 series car starters are equipped with a
high current, programmable 5
th
relay onboard
that can be used to power a second Ignition,
accessory, or crank wire.
The programming is very simple, the unit uses a
series of 3 jumpers, each jumper represents a
function, in order to activate any one of the three
possible 2
nd
outputs, you must place the
jumper(supplied) on one of the three pins and
simply connect the 14awg wire to the vehicles
second ign/acc/crank wire.
NOTE: ONLY ONE OF THE THREE
JUMPERS CAN BE USED AT ONE TIME.
