If the starter kill relay or its connections are immediately visible upon removal of the under-dash panel, they can
easily be bypassed. Always make the relay and its connections difficult to discern from the factory wiring!
Exposed yellow butt connectors do not look like factory parts, and will not fool anyone! For this reason, routing
the starter kill wires away from the steering column is recommended.
finding the wires you need
Now that you have determined where each component will be located, your next step is to find the wires in the
vehicle that the security system will be connected to.
IMPORTANT! Do not use a 12V test light to locate these wires! All testing described in this manual
assumes the use of a digital multimeter.
We recommend two possible sources for 12V constant: The (+) terminal of the battery, or the constant 12V supply
to the ignition switch. Always install a fuse within 12 inches of this connection. If the fuse will also be power-
ing other circuits, such as door locks, a power window module, or a Nite-Lite® headlight control system, fuse
accordingly.
IMPORTANT! Do not remove the fuse holder on the red wire. It ensures that the control module has
its own fuse, of the proper value, regardless of how many accessories are added to the main power
feed.
