This unit is to be used in vehicles with AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS only! Although this combination
Alarm/Remote Start unit is a sophisticated system with many advanced features, IT MUST NOT be in-
stalled into a vehicle with a manually operated transmission. Doing so may result in serious personal
injury and property damage.
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 three power wires based on that
load. If the vehicle, running under load with the air conditioner, heater blower motor, and accessories exceed
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.
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. AF-
TER SELECTING YOUR TARGET WIRES AS DEFINED BELOW, DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE BAT-
TERY CABLE FROM THE VEHICLE BATTERY PRIOR TO MAKING ANY CONNECTIONS.
WIRING THE 6 PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS:
RED w/ WHITE Trace Wire: + 12 volts 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 Volts Battery 2 Source
Connect this wire to a separate, (Other than the wire Red or Red/Black is connected to), + 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.
