The EX-6000 Vehicle Alarm System is designed to provide a basic deterrent to vehicle theft, and a
convenient electronic means to gain access to the vehicle by providing RF remote control over the vehicle's
power door lock system. The unit also includes outputs to control the vehicle's parking lights, and an
additional auxiliary output designed to allow for control over an optional device such as a power trunk
release or engine starting device.
BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION:
1) Find locations to mount the following items:
Control Module
Electronic Siren
Dash Mounted L.E.D.
Valet/Program/Manual Override Switch
2) Determine the type of factory power door lock system in use. Knowing the type of system up front
before beginning the installation can make the installation easier and faster since you can build whatever
interface (if needed) beforehand.
3) Determine whether the vehicle includes a power trunk release system, and if so what type it is.
CONTROL MODULE:
The Control Module is NOT waterproof, DO NOT mount it in the Engine Compartment. Select a mount-
ing location under the dashboard. Choose a mounting location that will not interfere with proper operation
of the vehicle's steering column mechanism, brake and gas pedals. Secure the Control Module in the
chosen location. Wait until all components have been installed and all connections are made before
plugging in the main connectors.
SIREN:
Select a location in the engine compartment that is not accessible from below the vehicle. The selected
location must be clear of hot or moving parts within the engine compartment The siren must be pointed
downward to prevent water retention and the flared end must be pointed away from and out of the engine
compartment for maximum sound distribution. Before securing the siren, check behind your chosen
location to assure that the mounting screws will not penetrate any factory wiring or fluid lines. Secure the
siren mounting bracket using #8 screws by first using the mounting bracket as a template, scribe or mark
the three bracket mounting holes. Drill the three marked holes using a 1/8" drill bit, than mount the siren
using #8 sheet metal screws.
VALET/PROGRAM/MANUAL OVERRIDE SWITCH :
Since much of the use of this switch by the vehicle operator requires concurrent operation of the ignition
key switch, it is recommended that the Valet/Program/Manual Override Switch be placed such that it can
be reached by the driver's left hand, while they operate the ignition key switch with their right hand. It is
also highly recommended that this switch be concealed to provide the highest level of security. The
switch can 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 pen-
etrate 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 opposite side. Secure the switch using the nut, star-
washer, and on/off face plate. It is suggested that the switch be oriented 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’s wires and
connector toward the location of the Control Module.
DASH MOUNTED L.E.D.:
The small Red LED included in the kit serves as a visual indicator of the system's status and provides a
visual deterrent to a potential thief. The LED also provides important feed back information during the
transmitter and feature program modes. The LED should be installed in the dashboard in a highly visible
