Brown Wire: Positive Brake Safety Shut Down Input
This wire provides instant shutdown for the remote start, when it receives +12 volts. If the brake lights switch in
the vehicle switches +12 volts to the brake light circuit, connect this 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. A relay may be required if the brake light switch is (-) type.

Gray Wire: (-) Hood Safety Shut Down Input
The Gray wire provides instant shutdown for the remote start when it is grounded. Connect the Gray wire to an
existing hood pin switch or install the one provided in this kit. This wire must be routed through a grommet in the
firewall and connected to the hood pin switch. If the hood pin switch is also to be used as an alarm system trigger,
diodes are required as shown.
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.
Note: The Gray wire can also be
used as the “Brake Safety”
connection if the vehicle brake light
circuit switches a ground signal to
the brake lights. An isolation diode
must be used and connected to the
output of the brake switch.

White/Blue Wire: AUX Start and Turn Off Input
This wire can turn on and off the remote start system each time it sees a momentary ground signal. This wire is
normally used for testing or activating the remote starter from an after-market alarm system.
A common connection point would be at the trunk release wire or the door lock wire.
