Supplies a (-) 500 mA ground when the system is armed. Can control starter kill relay or DEI 8617.
Connects to (+) parking light wire. Protected by a 10 amp fuse. Use external relay for more current.
Provides a (-) 200 mA output for transmitter-controlled Channel 3. Use for options like 551T Valet® Start system.
Connects to optional domelight supervision relay. Only intended to drive a relay, not directly to circuit.
Used for progressive door unlock. Outputs a low current (-) pulse on the second press of the unlock button for passenger doors.
Connects to bare metal for chassis ground. Use a factory bolt for reliable connection. Ground all components to the same point.
Connect to an ignition source showing (+)12V during run and cranking. Triggers system if ignition is on before disarming.
Provides (-) 200 mA output to honk the vehicle horn. Outputs pulses for confirmation and Panic Mode activation.
Connect to positive battery terminal or constant 12V supply. Must use a fuse within 12 inches of the connection point.
Outputs as long as Channel 2 transmission continues. Used for trunk/hatch release or other relay-driven functions.
Determine door lock system type by examining the master locking switch and its wires. Crucial for correct installation.
Common in GM, Ford, Chrysler, Saturn, VW, BMW. Uses a three-wire positive pulse system for lock relays.
Common in Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Saturn, Ford. Uses a three-wire negative pulse system for lock relays.
Common in Ford, GM, Chrysler. Uses direct-wired switches with reversing polarity, no factory relays.
For vehicles without factory power locks or with slave systems. Requires one actuator per door or for driver's door.
Found in Mercedes-Benz and Audi. Locks controlled by electrically activated vacuum pump. Requires specific programming.
Found in Nissan Sentras, 240SX, 300ZX, older Mitsubishis, Mazda MPVs. Requires cutting wire to lock, grounding to unlock.
Common in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler, GM. Door lock switch/key cylinder may contain one or two resistors for positive multiplexing.
Common in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler, GM. Door lock switch/key cylinder may contain one or two resistors for negative multiplexing.
Connect to master switch side of lock wire. Shows (+)12V when master switch is in lock position, (-) ground in middle.
Connect to the other side of the lock wire. This is the motor side of the lock wire, going to the lock motor.
Connect to a constant (+)12 volts, typically the supply for the door lock switch. Ensure adequate voltage.
Connect to master switch side of unlock wire. Shows (+)12V when master switch is in unlock position, (-) ground in middle.
Connect to the other side of the unlock wire. This wire connects to the unlock motor and completes the circuit.
Wire pulses (+)12V in one direction, less than (+)12V in the opposite. Used with one resistor in the switch/cylinder.
Switch/key cylinder reads less than (+)12V in both directions. Used with two resistors in the switch/cylinder.
Isolate switch/key cylinder, cut wire, test with multimeter to determine resistor values. Essential for correct wiring.
Wire pulses ground in one direction, resistance to ground in the opposite. Used with one resistor in the switch/cylinder.
Switch/key cylinder reads resistance to ground in both directions. Used with two resistors in the switch/cylinder.
Isolate switch/key cylinder, cut wire, test with multimeter to determine resistor values. Essential for correct wiring.
Learn routine allows advancing from one programmed channel to another by releasing and tapping the Valet/Program switch.
Routine exits if ignition off, Valet/Program switch pressed too many times, or 15 seconds elapse between steps.
Advance between features by pressing and releasing the Valet/Program switch the required number of times.
Routine exits if ignition is turned on, Valet/Program switch pressed too many times, or 15 seconds elapse between steps.
Doors lock 3 seconds after ignition on, unlock when ignition off. Feature can be enabled or disabled.
Adjustable pulse duration for European vehicles. Default is 0.8 seconds, can be set to 3.5 seconds.
Enables two negative pulses for unlocking on certain vehicles. Simplifies direct interface with compatible systems.
Activates ignition panic sequence and H1/1 ORANGE output when ignition is on. Can be disabled for simpler operation.
Feature changes system code with each communication. Disabling may improve range by ignoring Code Hopping™ part of word.
Check Valet switch connection and H1/9 YELLOW wire connectivity. Ensure correct socket is used for the switch.
Verify LED is plugged into the correct white port on the control unit. Refer to Plug-In LED and Valet/Program Switch section.
Reverse lock/unlock outputs if connected incorrectly. Recheck Relay Harness (H2) connection guide for proper wiring.
