DO NOT PLUG THE SIX PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS OR THE MULTI PIN INPUT / OUTPUT
HARNESS INTO THE CONTROL MODULE UNTIL ALL CONNECTIONS TO THE VEHICLE HAVE
BEEN MADE. AFTER SELECTING YOUR TARGET WIRES AS DEFINED BELOW, DISCON-
NECT THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE FROM THE VEHICLE BATTERY PRIOR TO MAKING
ANY CONNECTIONS.
Note: Do not remove the fuse holders from this wire harness. Fuses must be used and
located as close as possible to the power source for adequate protection of the vehicle.
WIRING THE 6 PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS Connector “C”:
Fused RED w/ WHITE TRACE WIRE: + 12 volt Battery 1 Source
Locate the vehicle battery wire(s) at the ignition switch. Verification: These wires will register
voltage in all positions of the ignition switch. Connect the Red w/White wire to the vehicle's battery
wire. This wire provides power for the control circuit as well as the ignition 1 and ignition 2 relays.
Fused RED WIRE: + 12 Volt Battery 2 Source
Locate the vehicle battery wire(s) at the ignition switch. Verification: These wires will register
voltage in all positions of the ignition switch. Connect the Red wire to the vehicle's battery wire.
This wire provides power for the start relay and the accessory relay.
YELLOW Wire: Starter Output
Careful consideration for the connection of this wire must be made to prevent the vehicle
from starting while in gear. Understanding the difference between a mechanical and an
electrical Neutral Start Switch will allow you to properly identify the circuit and select the
correct installation method. In addition you will realize why the connection of the safety
wire is required for all mechanical switch configurations.
Failure to make this connection properly can result in personal injury and property damage.
In all installations it is the responsibility of the installing technician to test the remote start unit and
ensure that the vehicle cannot start via RF control in any gear selection other than park or neutral.
In both mechanical and electrical neutral start switch configurations, the connection of the Yellow
wire will be made to the low current start solenoid wire of the ignition switch harness. This wire
will have +12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the start (crank) position only. This wire
will have 0 volts in all other ignition switch positions.
