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 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 wires toward the control module.
The APS-685 is to be used in vehicles with AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS only! Although this combina-
tion Keyless Entry/Remote Start unit is a sophisticated system with many advanced features, IT MUST
NOT be installed into a vehicle with a manually operated transmission. Doing so may result in serious
personal injury and property damage.
IMPORTANT!
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, DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE
BATTERY CABLE FROM THE VEHICLE BATTERY PRIOR TO MAKING ANY CONNECTIONS.
WIRING THE 6 PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS:
RED w/ WHITE Trace Wire: + 12 volt Battery 1 Source
Connect this wire to a + 12 VDC constant source found at the vehicle's ignition switch using the 30 Amp
fuse and holder provided. This wire provides power for the control circuit as well as the ignition 1 and
ignition 2 relays.
RED Wire: + 12 Volt Battery 2 Source
Connect this wire to a + 12 VDC constant source found at the vehicle's ignition switch using the 30 Amp
fuse and holder provided, but NOT the same vehicle wire as used by the battery 1 source. Most vehicles
have more than one battery source supplying power to the ignition switch. Separate feed wires must be
used for the Red and Red/White wires. If your vehicle does not have two battery feed wires at the ignition
switch then it is possible to connect both wires to the vehicle's battery. This wire provides power for the start
relay and the accessory relay.
IMPORTANT!
It is the responsibility of the installing technician to determine the load factor of the vehicles electrical
circuits when the vehicle is running and to adequately fuse the two power wires based on that load. If the
vehicle, running under load with the air conditioned, heater blower motor, and accessories exceeds 24
Amps continuous, we recommend that two fuses be used in combination on each power wire as shown
below. For additional information see Tech Update issued 9/30/96.
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 assure
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.
