Section 6 INSTALLATION
This section describes the installation procedure for the additional remote circuits available on the
Auxiliary Idle Control Module.
The Installation Instruction sheet in the kit describes the set-up of this module to the vehicle, including mounting
bracket. Locate the mating 4-pin connector under the driver's side instrument panel and connect. See Section
9.2 for connector pin-out.
NOTE:
1) DO NOT CUT THE WIRING HARNESS to extend or shorten the harness length.
Cutting the harness can damage the twisted pair communication lines and result in a non-functional system.
2) It is highly recommended that APCM IS MOUNTED IN-CAB ONLY.
Install remote switches for all exterior applications.
Section 6.1 REMOTE INPUT SWITCHES
Section 6.1.1 Remote Switch Installation
For Remote RPM Control & Remote Charge Protection, use Momentary Contact (push button) switches with
Normally Open contacts. The switches selected should be able to handle a 5VDC, 20mA nominal signal.
Quality industrial switches with gold contacts are recommended for contact durability due to the low current.
For Remote Charge Protection:
Connect switch to red VREF output wire and orange CHG input wire. The Remote Charge Protect switch
will function the same as the [CHARGE PROTECT] key on the module.
For Remote RPM Control:
Connect switch to red VREF output and gray RPM MC input. The Remote Ford switch will function the
same as the [FORD] key on the module for RPM Control activation
