INSTALLING THE SYSTEM
As you install the system, see the “Wiring Diagram” on
Page 11.
CONNECTING TO THE
STARTER WIRES
The starter wire connects the ignition switch to the starter so-
lenoid. Follow these steps to find this wire.
1. Using the starter solenoid’s color coded wires as a guide,
locate the wire that goes from your vehicle’s ignition
(key) switch to the solenoid. This wire is usually found
under the dashboard where the wires connect to the igni-
tion switch. If you are unsure which is the correct wire,
call the Auto Security Helpline at 1-800-598-2527.
2. Connect the negative (usually black) lead from a 12-volt
test light or DC voltmeter to a metal vehicle body part.
3. Connect a wire-piercing probe (Cat. No. 278-715) to the
positive lead and press the pin tip through the solenoid
wire’s insulation and into the wire itself.
