The
has been designed to function in any vehicle (carbureted, fuel injected, diesel, automatic or
manual transmission, and locking or non
-
locking steering column.)
I
f your vehicle has a factory installed
security system with or without an immobili
zer, then
can be installed without the use of an
aftermarket security bypass module
,
and all of your original security function
s
will be unaffected.
Determine which installation option to use below:
Installation Option
1
:
can be installed as a
full func
tion
combined “Engine Start and Alarm
S
ystem
.
If
your vehicle comes equipped with an OEM or aftermarket alarm system, installing
as a combined
“Engine Start and Alarm System
will require the OEM or aftermarket system to be bypassed by connecting the
wiring harnesses in parallel to the OEM or aftermarket door and alarm function wiring. If your vehicle
is equipped with an
OEM electric
d
oor lock and unlock only system, then
can be installed by connecting
to the OEM door lock/unlock circuitry. When ins
talling
in the Engine Start and Alarm System”
configuration, the supplied key
FOBs and
siren will be required. See Sec. 1.5 for wiring instructions.
Installation Option 2:
can also be installed in a stand alone, “Engine Start,” configuration only (wit
hout
door locks and alarm functions). In the event that your vehicle has an OEM or a high level security aftermarket
alarm system, then
can be installed using the
Engine Start
functions only. Your OEM key FOB will
continue to function as it was origina
lly intended. When installing in the
Engine Start
only configuration, the
supplied
key FOBs and siren will not be used. When installing as the
“Engine Start”
only configuration a
number of the
module wires will not be required. Please see installati
on comments in Sec 1.5
To ease and reduce installation time, we suggest you consider the following points before starting:
1.
Check all vehicle manufacturer cautions and warnings regarding electrical service (AIR BAGS, ABS BRAKES,
ENGINE / BODY COMPUTER AND
BATTERY).
Use extreme care and do not probe any wires of the SRS
system.
2.
Additional vehicle specific wiring diagrams and other helpful installation information can be found on our web
site at

3.
Dete
rmine
the
most suitable locations for all components to be placed. These components include: The
control
module ,
ENGINE START
button,
siren,
supplied relays or possible extra relays
.
4.
Use a
Digital Multi
-
Meter or
12
-
volt Test Probe (High
-
Impedance
)
to test and locate all connections.
Conventional
Test Lights can
damage a vehicle’s computer systems.
5.
Record all color codes of vehicle wiring to be used for reference. This will save time by not having to re
-
test the
same wires over again. Mark
all vehicle wires
with masking tape.
6.
After locating and marking the approp
riate wires DISCONNECT the (+
) POS
terminal at the battery.
7.
Determin
e
the type of locking system the vehicle has before connecting any wires. Incorrect connection
can
result in damage to the
and/or vehicle locking
system. There
are several types of door
lock systems
in vehicles today. Below is listed the many types of common locking systems:
Negative Trigger (
-
): Many Imports; Late model Ford & General Motors
Negative trigger door lock systems send a Negative (Ground) pulse to existing factory relays to l
ock and
unlock the vehicle doors.
Positive Trigger (+): Many General Motors; Chrysler / Dodge / Plymouth
Positive trigger door lock systems send a Positive (+12V) pulse to existing factory relays to lock and unlock
the vehicle doors.
Reverse Polarity: Many
Ford/Lincoln/Mercury/Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth and early 90’s GM Trucks
The door lock/unlock motors are controlled directly from the lock and unlock switches in the door. The lock
and unlock wires rest at Negative Ground when not in use. When the lock or un
lock button is pressed, one of
the circuits is “Lifted” and replaced with +12V causing a lock or unlock to occur.
Electric vacuum pump:
Pre
-
‘95 Mercedes
-
Benz
and Audi
Single Wire (Dual Voltage): Late model Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth Vehicles, some
year
2000
and
newer
GM
vehicles
Dual Voltage systems have lock/unlock switches that send varying levels of Positive voltage OR Negative
ground current to the SAME wire for both lock and unlock. When the vehicle’s Body Computer Module (BCM)
or door lock module senses
different voltages on this wire, the system will either lock or unlock. Single wire
door lock systems require relays and resistors.
This type system requires that you have a good working
knowledge
of
their operation
before
attempting
installation of
’s
a
larm functions.
“Engine Start”
only function can be easily installed.
