The APS-675 Remote Start/Keyless Entry System is designed to be used with Automatic Transmission
Vehicles Only! The unit provides a selectable ignition control that allows a 10 second output for glow plug
pre-heat which maybe requiredfor certain dieselvehicles, (seeselectable feature #9). If the dieselengine has
a instant fire, (no glow plug pre-heat system), feature #9 should remain in the default Gasoline mode setting.
For diesel applications, consult your dealer for the type of ignition system used in your particular vehicle.
Regardless of the vehicle, Gasoline or Diesel, for every installation, the vehicle MUST HAVE a Tach Signal
Output, and an Automatic Transmission.
INSTALLATION OFTHE MAJOR COMPONENTS:
CONTROL MODULE:
Select a mounting location inside the passenger compartment (up behind the dashboard). The mounting
location selected must be within 24" of the ignition switch wiring harness to allow connection of the 6-pin
main wiring harness.
Be certain that the chosen location will not interfere with proper operation of the vehicle. Avoid mounting the
module to or routing the wiring around the steering shaft/column, as the module or wiring may wrap around or
block the steering wheel, preventing proper control of the vehicle. Secure the module in the chosen location
using cable ties or screws as necessary.
Do Not Mount The Module In The Engine Compartment, as it is not waterproof.
HOOD PIN SWITCH:
The pin switch included in this package is required for the safety shut down of the remote start unit. If the
vehicle is being worked on, this hood switch prevents the remote start activation even if the RF command to
start is issued. This switch MUST be installed in all applications Failure to do so may result in personal
injury or property damage. Mount the switch in an area under the hood that is away from water drain paths.
If necessary, the included brackets may be used to move the switch away from rain gutters or allow
mounting to the firewall behind the hood seal. In either case the switch must be set up to allow the hood door
to depress the switch at least 1/4 inch when the hood is closed and fully extended when the hood is opened.
For direct mounting, a 1/4 inch hole must be drilled. Carefully check behind the chosen location to insure the
drill will not penetrate any existing factory wiring or fluid lines. Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and
thread the pin switch into it using a 7/16" nut driver or deep well socket. If using the mounting bracket, first
secure the bracket to the desired location and secure the pin switch in the pre-threaded mounting bracket hole.
THE RECEIVER/ANTENNAASSEMBLY:
The Superheterodyne Receiver Antenna Assembly provided with this unit allows routing from below the dash
board for maximum operating range. Choose a location above the belt line (dashboard) of the vehicle for best
reception. Special considerations must be made for windshield glass as some newer vehicles utilize a
metallic shielded window glass that will inhibit or restrict RF reception. In these vehicles, route the antenna
toward a rear window location for best reception. Secure the antenna with double stick tape provided. After
securing the antenna, we advise also securing a section of the antenna cable to a fixed support. This will
prevent the antenna from dropping down in case the double stick tape is exposed to extreme heat which may
loosen it's gummed surface.
PROGRAM SWITCH :
Select a mounting location that is within reach of the ignition switch, as this switch, in combination with the
igntion switch, will be used to program the selectable features of the system. It is suggested that the switch
be mounted to the lower dash panel in the driver's area. Inspect behind the chosen location to insure that
adequate clearance is allowed for the body of the switch, and also that the drill will not penetrate any existing
factory wiring or fluid lines. Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and mount the switch by passing it through
the panel from the underside. Secure the switch using the nut, star washer, and on/off face plate. It is best
to oriented the switch to allow the on position to be up toward the driver and the off position to be down or
away from the driver. Route the switch wires toward the control module.
CONTROL SWITCH:
Select a mounting location known and accessible to the operator of the vehicle. A lower dash panel, kick
panel, or glove box is desirable. Inspect behind the chosen location to insure that adequate clearance is
