SIREN:
Select a location in the engine compartment that is not accessible from below the vehicle. The
selected location must be clear of hot or moving parts within the engine compartment The
siren must be pointed downward to prevent water retention and the flared end must be pointed
away from and out of the engine compartment for maximum sound distribution. Before secur-
ing the siren, check behind your chosen location to assure that the mounting screws will not
penetrate any factory wiring or fluid lines. Secure the siren mounting bracket using #8 self
taping screws or by first using the mounting bracket as a template, scribe or mark the mounting
holes. Drill the marked holes using a 1/8" drill bit, then mount the siren using #8 sheet metal
screws.
HOOD PIN SWITCH:
The pin switch included in this package are intended for protecting the hood area of the vehicle.
In all cases, the switch must be mounted to a grounded metal surface. When the pin switch is
activated, (hood/trunk open), it will supply a ground to the input wire activating the alarm. In
addition, the hood switch is required for the safety shut down of the remote start unit. If the
vehicle is being worked on, this hood switch prevents the remote start activation even if the RF
command to start is issued. This switch must be installed in all applications. Failure to do
so may result in personal injury or property damage.
Mount the switch in the hood locations away from water drain paths. If necessary, the included
bracket may be used to move the switch away from rain gutters or allow mounting to the firewall
behind the hood seal. In both cases the switch must be set up to allow the hood to depress the
switch at least 1/4 inch when the hood is closed and fully extended when the hood is opened. For
direct mounting, a 1/4 inch hole must be drilled. Carefully check behind the chosen location to
insure the drill will not penetrate any existing factory wiring or fluid lines.
Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and thread the pin switch into it using a 7/16" nut driver
or deep well socket. If using the mounting bracket, first secure the bracket to the desired
location and secure the pin switch in the pre-threaded mounting bracket hole.
STARTERINHIBITRELAY:
Select a mounting location within 6" of the ignition switch's low current start solenoid wire.
Secure the relay to an existing harness in the chosen location using a cable tie around the
relay's wiring harness.
CAUTION! Do not wire tie the metal bracket to an existing wiring harness as vibration may
cause chaffing and shorting damaging the factory wiring. If an existing harness is not available
then secure the relay's metal mounting tab to an under dash metal brace with a #8 self tapping
sheet metal screw. Wire the relay as per the diagram found later in this manual.
SHOCK SENSOR:
Select a centrally located, solid mounting surface for the shock sensor that will allow consis-
tent operation from all areas of the vehicle. The selected location must be within 24" of the
control module to allow routing and connecting of the 4 pin harness. Secure the shock sensor
to the chosen location using two #8 self tapping sheet metal screws. The sensor can also be
secured to an existing dash brace using cable tie straps. Whichever mounting method is used
be sure to allow access to the sensitivity adjustment potentiometer for use later in the installa-
tion.

This wire provides power for the start relay and the accessory relay.
YELLOW Wire: Starter Output
Careful consideration for the connection of this wire must be made to prevent the vehicle
from starting while in gear. Understanding the difference between a mechanical and an
electrical Neutral Start Switch will allow you to properly identify the circuit and select the
correct installation method. In addition you will realize why the connection of the safety
wire is required for all mechanical switch configurations.
Failure to make this connection properly can result in personal injury and property damage.
In all installations it is the responsibility of the installing technician to test the remote start unit and
ensure that the vehicle cannot start via RF control in any gear selection other than park or neutral.
In both mechanical and electrical neutral start switch configurations, the connection of the Yellow
wire will be made to the low current start solenoid wire of the ignition switch harness. This wire
will have +12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the start (crank) position only. This wire
will have 0 volts in all other ignition switch positions.

false triggering of the factory alarm when the remote start unit engages or when the transmitter
is used to unlock the doors.
NOTE: This output can be selected to operate like the door lock output as set in alarm feature
setting #1 by selecting feature #13 of Bank 3 to as door unlock pulse.
Black w/ Light Green Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output After Start
The Black w/ Light Green Trace wire will provide a 1 second 250 mA pulsed ground output after
the vehicle is started under control of the remote start unit. Typically this wire will be used to re-
lock the vehicle doors if the doors unlock automatically when the factory antitheft system is
disarmed.
Black w/ Red Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output After Shutdown
The Black w/ Red Trace wire will provide a 1 second 250 mA pulsed ground output after the
remote start unit shuts down. This output will occur regardless of whether the circuit times out
or is manually terminated. Typically this output will be used to re-lock the vehicle doors if the
doors unlock automatically when the ignition circuit transitions to off.
Black w/ Yellow Trace Wire: Ground Output During Start (Crank)
The Black w/ Yellow Trace wire will provide a 250 mA ground output while the starter output of
the remote start unit is active. This output can be used to activate the Crank Low/Bulb Test wire
found in some GM vehicles. This wire is also referred to as the ECM wake up wire in some
Chrysler vehicles.
NOTE: The outputs above are low current outputs and must be used with a relay if the circuit's
requirement is more than 250 mA.
20 Pin Accessory Input/Output Harness, Connector “B”

Orange: Ground While Armed Output
This wire provides a 300 mA ground output when the alarm circuit is armed to control the
starter inhibit relay. Connect the Orange wire to terminal #86 (orange wire) of the relay
provided. Connect terminal #85 (red wire) of the relay to an ignition wire in the vehicle that is
+12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the on and start positions and off when the key
is off. Locate and cut the low current start solenoid wire found at the vehicles ignition switch
harness. This wire will have + 12 volts when the ignition key is moved to the start (crank)
position and will have 0 volts in all other key positions. Connect one side of the cut wire to
terminal #87a ( Black wire) of the relay. Connect the other side of the cut wire to terminal #30
(White/Black wire) of the relay.
White w/ Black Trace Wire: (+) Siren Output
This is the positive siren feed wire. Route this wire through a grommet in the firewall to the
siren location. Connect the White w/ Black Trace wire to the Red wire of the Siren. Secure the
Black wire of the Siren to a known chassis ground or solid clean metal surface.
Green w/ Orange Trace Wire: Tachometer Input Signal
This wire will continually monitor the engine's tach rate while the unit is under power of the
Remote Start module. This wire will be routed to the vehicle ECM tach input or through the
firewall into the engine compartment and connect to the negative side of the ignition coil. This
Remote Start unit learns the tach rate of the vehicle and in most cases will operate properly from
one multi coil pack regardless of the number of cylinders. This unit can also be connected to an
injector wire and will monitor the injector instead of the tach.
If the vehicle has a single coil unit for each cylinder, it may be necessary to connect this wire to
more than one cylinder for proper tach reference. See Multi Coil Pack Adaptor shown below.

Brown Wire: Negative Door Trigger
If the vehicle's door courtesy light switches ground when the door is opened, (Most GMs and
Imports), you must connect this wire to the negative output from one of the vehicle's door pin
switches. In most cases the Brown wire will need to be connected to only one door switch no
matter how many doors the vehicle has as most door lighting circuits are wired in parallel. This
wire will be shunted when remote starting the vehicle and will remain shunted, if active, while
running under command of the remote start. If this wire is active when the system is armed, the
siren will emit three chirps. When the zone clears, the siren will emit 1 chirp to confirm full
arming.
Note for vehicles with interior delay lighting see programming under title "Completing The
Installation".
Dark Blue/Black Trace Wire: External Trigger Input
The Dark Blue/Black trace wire allows the remote start unit to be activated from an external
source. The intent of this wire is to allow the unit to be controlled from a Telematic Paging
system or similar device. When this wire receives a ground pulse, the unit will start the vehicle.
Connect this wire to a ground pulsed output from the controlling circuit.
Purple Wire: (+) Door Trigger Input
If the vehicle's door courtesy light switches + 12 volts when the door is opened, (Some Fords
and some Imports), you must connect this wire to the positive output from one of the vehicle's
door pin switches. In most cases, the Purple wire will need to be connected to only one door
switch no matter how many doors the vehicle has as most door lighting circuits are wired in
parallel. This wire will be shunted when remote starting the vehicle and will remain shunted, if
active, while running under command of the remote start. If this wire is active when the system
is armed, the siren will emit three chirps. When the zone clears, the siren will emit 1 chirp to
confirm full arming. See below for wiring details.
Note for vehicles with interior delay lighting see programming under title "Completing The
Installation".
Orange/Black Wire: Parking Brake Input
This wire is used only when the turbo timer mode, Bank 3, feature # 16 is selected ON. This input
insures that the vehicle parking brake is applied whenever the vehicle is set up for and the turbo
timer circuit is used. This input must switch to ground when the vehicle's parking brake is applied.
Connect the Orange/Black wire to the negative output of the vehicle's parking brake switch.
Dark Green Wire: (-) Instant Trigger Input
This is the instant on ground trigger input wire. This wire must be connected to the hood and
trunk pin switches previously installed.
NOTE: This wire will be shunted when remote control channel 3 is accessed, (trunk release).
This wire will remain shunted all the while there is ground present and for 5 seconds after the
ground is removed. This allows the operator to open the trunk via the remote transmitter without
having to first disarm the alarm system.
Black Wire: Chassis Ground Source
Connect the Black wire to a known vehicle ground source or to a solid clean metal part of the
chassis. Be certain to remove any paint or grease and secure this wire with a self tapping
screw and ring terminal.

Green/Yellow Wire: DIESEL WAIT TO START INPUT
The green/yellow wire, when connected to the wire that get + 12 volts during the glow plug
preheat stage will delay the starter output until this wire drops the 12 volts. In other words, in a
Diesel vehicle with glow plug preheat circuit, when the ignition is turned on, the vehicle will not
crank until the glow plugs are hot enough to fire the atomized fuel oil when injected into the
cylinder. By connecting this wire to the glow plug + 12 volt wire, when the remote start unit
activates the ignition one output, the glow plug output also activates. The remote start sees the
green/yellow with positive voltage and waits for this to go inactive( drop the 12 volts) before
activating the starter motor. If this wire is not used or you have difficulty accessing the glow plug
preheat circuit, you may elect to utilize the Diesel timed output as specified in Remote Start
feature Bank 3 selection #9.
NOTE: If green/yellow is used, it will override or negate any setting of feature #9.
Grey w/ Black Trace Wire: Negative Inhibit Input Plus Trigger When Armed
The Grey w/ Black Trace wire provides an instant shutdown for the Remote Start Control Module
whenever it is grounded also trigger for the alarm when armed. Connect the Grey w/ Black trace
wire to the hood pin switch previously installed. This wire must be routed through a grommet in
the firewall and connected to the hood pin switch. If the pin switch is to be used with an alarm
system, connect this wire using the diode assembly provided.
DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTILYOU CONFIRM THE OPERATION
OF THE HOOD PIN SAFETYSHUT DOWN FEATURE.
Note this input, if grounded, will also trigger the alarm if it is armed.
IMPORTANT! This connection is a safety wire and must be connected as shown and tested as
specified. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or property damage. See detail of wiring
in the following diagram. This wire may also be used if the vehicle brake light circuit switches
ground to the brake lights. An isolation diode must be used for ground switched brake light
circuits and must be connected to the output of the brake switch.
Brown w/ Black Trace Wire: Positive Inhibit Input Plus Trigger When Armed
The Brown w/ Black Trace wire provides an instant shutdown for the Remote Start Control
module whenever it gets + 12 volts also triggers the alarm when armed. If the Brake lights
switch in the vehicle switches + 12 volts to the brake light circuit, connect the Brown w/ Black
trace wire to the output side of the brake switch. This will allow the Remote Start to shut down
if an attempt is made to operate the vehicle without the key while running under the control of the
Remote Start. In most vehicles, in order to shift into gear, the brake pedal must be depressed.
The brake input will in turn cause the remote start unit to shut off.
Note this input, if switched to +12 Volts, will also trigger the alarm if it is armed.
Dark Blue Wire: Delayed 250 mA Pulsed Channel 3 Output
The Dark Blue wire supplies a 250 mA ground pulsed output whenever channel three of the
receiver is accessed. Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button for three seconds will
access channel two. This is a low current output and must be connected to a relay to supply
power to the trunk release or the circuit you wish to control. Connect the Dark Blue wire to
terminal # 86 of a VF45F11 P&B relay or equivalent. Connect terminal # 85 of the relay to a
fused + 12 volt source. Connect the common, normally open, and normally closed contacts of
the relay to perform the selected function of channel 3. See below for relay wiring detail.
Light Blue Wire: Ground Output While Running Under Remote Start Control
This wire provides a 250 mA ground output that becomes active 3 seconds before the
Remote Start Unit initializes and remains grounded while running plus an additional 4 seconds
after the Remote Start Unit turns off. In all of the applications described below, a relay will be
required.

Green w/ Black Trace Wire: 250 mA Latched Channel 4 Output
The Green w/ Black Trace wire supplies a 300 mA switched output whenever channel four of
the receiver is accessed. Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button(s) will access
channel four and will remain active, for up to 20 seconds, as long as the transmitter button(s)
is held. This is a low current output and must be connected to a relay to supply power to the
device you intend to control. Connect Green w/ Black Trace wire to terminal #86 of a VF45F11
P&B relay or equivalent. Connect terminal #85 of the relay to a fused + 12 volt source. Connect
the common, normally open, and normally closed contacts of the relay to perform the selected
function of the channel 4 output.
NOTE: This wire also can be used for defrost activation as dictated by the setting of feature # 1
of Bank 3. Anytime the vehicle is running under control of the Remote Start and Channel 4 is
activated, then dependent on the selection of this feature, Green/Black will be activated as a
pulse for 1 second, or for 10 minutes. Note this wire will not operate when the vehicle is running
under the power of the ignition key, only while under the control of the remote start or if not used
for defrost then an output will occur as indicated above.
Black w/ White Trace Wire : 250 mA Horn Output
The black w/ white trace wire is provided to beep the vehicle’s horn. This is a transistorized
low current output, and should only be connected to the low current ground output from the
vehicle’s horn switch. If the vehicle uses a + 12 VDC horn switch, then connect the black w/
white trace wire to terminal 86 of the AS 9256 relay ( or an equivalent 30 Amp automotive
relay ),and connect relay terminal 85 to a fused + 12 VDC battery source. Connect relay
terminal 87 to the vehicle’s horn switch output, and connect relay terminal 30 to a fused +
12 VDC battery source.
Green w/ White trace Wire: Entry Illumination Ground Output
This wire provides a 30 second ground output (250 mA Max.) whenever the remote is used to
disarm the alarm or to unlock the doors and provides a continuous pulsed output whenever
the alarm is triggered. This wire should be connected to an external relay and wired to the
vehicles interior entry lighting whenever the optional Interior Illumination circuit is desired.
Red/Black Wire: Ignition 3 Output
This wire provides a 200mA (-) ground output that becomes active 4 seconds before the
remote start unit initialize, and remains ground 4 seconds after the remote start unit shuts

Programming Tach Rate:
NOTE: All applications require that tach be programmed.
The unit will not operate unless tach is programmed. If an attempt is made to start the vehicle
via the remote start without first programming tach, the unit will flash the parking lights 7 times
indicating tach has not been learned and stored. If the tach rate is not properly programmed to
the specific vehicle, the unit may not realize that the vehicle is running in certain instances
reengage the starter motor.
The Remote Start Unit will learn the tach rate of most vehicle's single coil, multiple coil packs, or
single injector. To learn tach:
1. Turn the ignition key to the On position.
2. Press and release the valet/program push button switch 3 times.
3. Immediately turn the ignition key Off.
4. Press and hold the valet/program push button switch, then start the vehicle using the
key.
5. When the unit senses the tach signal, the parking lights will begin to flash.
6. Release the valet/program push-button switch. The parking lights will turn on for three
seconds to indicate that the learned tach signal is stored and the unit is out of the tach
learn mode.
NOTE: If the unit fails to learn tach rate due to an improper tachometer connection or a poor tach
source, the parking lights will not flash. To correct this situation, locate and connect the
Green/Orange wire to the proper tach signal, and then repeat the tach learn routine.
Diagnostics:
Enter Bank 3 and turn on selectable feature # 7 as described in the feature selection and
setting section.
NOTE: Diagnostic mode is a temporary mode. Once you have accessed the diagnostic mode,
the unit will pause for two seconds then begin to flash the last stored shut down code. This
