KEY IN SENSOR CIRCUITS:
If the vehicle you are working on does not have or you cannot locate the ECM reference wire, there are
two alternatives available. Although not preferred, the vehicle Key In Sensor may be recongured to
allow a margin of safety and will prevent the vehicle with a Mechanical Neutral Start Switch from starting
in gear.
WE ADVISES THAT YOU MAINTAIN THE FACTORY CIRCUIT WHENEVER POSSIBLE. The following
two circuits may be used only if the above circuit is not available.
NOTE: When completing an installation using either of the following key in sensor circuits, if the opera-
tor inserts the ignition key while the vehicle is running under the control of the Remote Start, the
vehicle will shut down. This must be explained to the operator as it is in contrast to the normal
operation of a vehicle utilizing an electrical neutral start switch and is inconsistent with the oper-
ators manual.
Additional information concerning Key In Sensor methods 1 & 2 are listed below and should be
reviewed before considering either alternative.
Method 1 will allow the safety required for the remote start unit and prevent the vehicle from
starting while in any gear other than Park or Neutral while the key is in the ignition cylinder how-
ever, if the key is left in the ignition switch and the door is left opened, the added relay will be
energized causing a 150mA drain on the battery.
Method 2 will allow the safety required for the remote start unit and prevent the vehicle from
starting while in any gear other than Park or Neutral while the key is in the ignition cylinder how-
ever, the original factory key in chime module will not alert the owner that the key has been left
in the ignition switch. In addition, this may also effect other warning tones such as the light on
reminder.
These situations should be carefully considered before altering the vehicle's wiring and must be
fully explained to the consumer.
METHOD 1
To connect to the key in sensor as shown in method 1:
1) Locate the control wire that connects the drivers door pin switch to the key in sensor switch.
2) Cut this wire and connect the ignition cylinder side to chassis ground.
3) Locate the key in sensor switch wire that connects the chime module to the ignition cylinder .
4) Cut this wire and connect the ignition cylinder side to terminal 30 of a P&B VF45F11 or equivalent relay.
5) Connect the cathode (striped) side of a 4002 series diode to this same wire, and connect the (non
striped) side to the negative shut down safety wire (Gray / Black) of the Audiovox Remote Start Unit.
6) Connect terminal 86 of the relay to a fused +12 volt constant battery source.
7) Connect terminal 87 of the relay to the Chime Module side of the previously cut wire in step D.
8) Connect terminal 85 of the relay to the Drivers Door side of the pin switch wire previously cut in step B.
