H3/3 GRAY (-) Hood Pinswitch Input, Zone 6 and Hood Icon
This wire MUST be connected to hood pinswitch. This input will disable or shut down the remote
start when the hood is opened. It will also trigger the security system if the hood is opened while
the system is armed and report Zone 6.
H3/4 BROWN (+) Brake Switch Input
This wire MUST be connected to the vehicle's brake light wire. This is the wire that shows (+) 12V
when the brake pedal is pressed. The remote start will be disabled or shut down any time the brake
pedal is pressed.
H3/5 VIOLET/WHITE Tachometer Input
This input provides the module with information about the engine's revolutions per minute
(RPMs). It can be connected to the negative side of the coil in vehicles with conventional coils. In
multi-coil and high energy ignition systems locating a proper signal may be more difficult. (See
Installation Points to Remember section of this guide for finding the tachometer wire.) Once
connected, you must teach the system the tach signal. (See Tach Learning section of this guide.)
H3/6 BLACK/WHITE Neutral Safety Switch Input
Connect this wire to the toggle (override) switch as shown in Figure A. Connect the other wire from
the toggle switch to the park/neutral switch in the vehicle. This wire will test with ground with the
gear selector either in PARK or NEUTRAL. This will prevent the vehicle from accidentally being
started while in a drive gear. This input MUST rest at ground in order for the remote start system
to operate. Connected properly the vehicle will only start while in PARK or NEUTRAL.
In some vehicles, the park/neutral position switch activates a factory starter lock out that will not
allow the starter to operate in a drive gear. In these vehicles, connect this wire to the toggle switch
as shown in Figure B. Connect the other wire from the toggle switch to chassis ground.
