The device is NOT waterproof, never mount the device in the engine compartment. When mounting the device,
determine best possible location under the dash and make sure that the device will be securely attached using self-
tapping screws or cable zip-ties. Do not force or jam the device into tight places instead of mounting it. When
mounting the Device, do not obstruct any serviceable areas such as fuse boxes, etc. The device and its wiring must
be mounted away from any moving parts such as brake, gas, and clutch pedals and linkages.
Installation
*Identify correct wires
1. Remove any interior/under dash trim necessary to gain access to vehicle’s wiring as well as all areas where
interconnecting wire harnesses will need to be located.
2. Individually isolate any wires in the device’s harnesses that will not be used during installation.
3. It is strongly recommended to locate and connect constant power and ignition wires at the ignition key switch
connector behind ignition key cylinder or trace and connect at ignition switch wiring harness running down
steering column. (Note: If the ignition switch harness is not accessible, amperage restriction exists, or the vehicle
has an electronic starting system, constant power and ignition connections can be made at the interior fuse box)
4. Use a multimeter and the color tables below to identify constant power and ignition wires.
5. The correct constant power wire will have battery voltage +12V (or +24V) present at all times, even when the
ignition key is in off position or removed. Connect the device’s red wire here.
6. The correct ignition wire will have +12V (or +24V) present only when -- the key is in ON position, during
cranking and while motor is running. Connect the device’s white/yellow wire here.
