Most comebacks are the result of misunderstandings about how a product works or performs. Take
the time to properly explain all functions and features to the customers before they leave the
premises. Doing this will save time and money.
Always make all your connections before plugging in the Remote Car Starter, and be sure to test
all functions properly before closing up the installation.
Make sure the Warning Label is applied on a visible place under the Hood.
Supplementary Information
Fifth Relay Output (2
nd
IGN, ACC or CRANK)
Remote Car Starters of this series are equipped
with an on-board high-current programmable 5
th
Relay that can be used to power a second
Ignition, Accessory or Crank wire.
The Unit uses 3 sets of pins; each set
corresponds to a specific function of the output.
In order to activate one of the three possible
functions, you must place the Jumper
(supplied) on one of the three sets of pins and
connect the 14 AWG wire to the second
IGN. /
ACC. / CRANK wire of the vehicle.
Caution!
Only one set of pins can be used at one time.
Using more than one Jumper may result in serious
damage to the vehicle.
The relay output rating on this unit is 25 A at most.
Defective OEM solenoid switches can sometimes
draw up to 50 or 60 A, causing the 30 A Fuse to
blow. Always verify your circuit with an appropriate
measuring device.
Clutch bypass
In order to remote start a manual-Transmission vehicle, the Clutch switch must be bypassed.
Clutch safety switch circuits can take many forms. The most common types are listed below. When
testing to determine the type of Clutch circuit, it is recommended that you use a computer-safe
logic probe. Some vehicles may also have a separate or combined switch on the Clutch pedal for
cruise control. Usually, a cruise-control switch reacts at the moment you touch the pedal, whereas
a Clutch switch reacts only when the pedal is near the floor. Once the circuit type is determined,
you must recreate, with the Remote Car Starter, the electrical interaction occurring at the switch in
order to bypass the Clutch at the moment of remote starts. Relays are often used to accomplish
this. Always use the Ground Out When Running (G.O.) wire as the negative trigger on your Clutch
bypass relays, as it is only active during remote starts.
Never carry out a permanent Clutch switch bypass. Do not attempt a bypass at all if you are
unfamiliar with the use of relays and diode isolation.
Before any Hot Wiring attempts:
Test and record the way each wire tests in the following positions:
With the pedal up:
test the wire with the Ignition Key in the
OFF position
test the wire with the Key in the
IGNITION ON (RUN) position
