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 switches in the[...]

SHOCK SENSOR: Select a centrally located, solid mounting surface for the shock sensor that will allow consistent opera- tion from all areas of the vehicle. The selected location must be within 18" 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[...]

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 installa- tion method. In addition you wil[...]

WIRING CONNECTIONS: Multi Pin Accessory Input/Output Harness White w/ Red T race Wire: Parking Light Flasher Feed This wire is the common contact of the on board parking light flasher relay . If the vehicle you are working on has +12 volt switched parking lights, connect this wire to a fused + 12 volt source. (Max. 15 Amps) NOTE: If the vehicle&apo[...]

White w/ Black T race 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. Siren Wiring Detail 7 SIREN l BLACK[...]

Light Blue Wire: Ignition 3 Output This wire provides a 300mA 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. The Light Blue wire can be us[...]

9 Green w/ White trace Wire: Entry Illumination Ground Output This wire provides a 30 second ground output (300 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[...]

Orange Wire: Ground When 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[...]

11 Green w/ Orange T race Wire: T achometer 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 Remot[...]

Dark Blue Wire: Delayed 300mA Pulsed Channel 3 Output The Dark Blue wire supplies a 300mA 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 releas[...]

13 NOTE : This is a normally opened starter cut arrangement, and when power is removed from the security system, the starter disable feature will remain operational, and the vehicle will not start. Audiovox does not recommend using the Orange w/ White trace wire to interrupt anything but the starting circuit of the vehicle. Lt Green Wire: (-) Insta[...]

14 Black w/ Y ellow T race Wire: Ground Output During Start (Crank) The Black w/ Y ellow T race wire will provide a 300 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 T est wire found in some GM vehicles. This wire is also referred to as the ECM wake up wire in so[...]

15 3 Wire Positive Switched Door Locks: In this application, the Red wire of the door lock harness provides a + 12 volt pulse during the disarming sequence, or pulsed 12 volt unlock output. Connect the Red wire to the low current 12 volt signal wire from the factory door unlock switch to the factory door unlock relay . The Green wire of the door lo[...]

The Red/Black wire provides a pulse ground output when the unlock button of the transmitter is pressed a second time after disarming. Connect the Red/Black wire to the wire that provides a low current ground signal from the factory door unlock switch to the factory door unlock control relay . 3 Wire Positive Switched 2 Step Door Locks: The green wi[...]

17 NOTE: Resistive Circuits, As W ell As 4 W ire Polarity Reversal and 5 W ire Alternating 12 V olt Door Lock Control Circuits These applications require the use of additional components which may include relays, fixed resistors, or for convenience, the AS 9159 Door Lock Interface. Refer to the AUDIOVOX Door Lock Wiring Supplement and or the Audiov[...]

18 ST ART PROGRAM: The Remote Start unit has the ability to start the vehicle automatically at timed intervals. This feature is useful in extremely cold climates where starting the engine is the only means to keep the battery charged and fluids warm. The operator has the option to have the unit start every 2 or 4 hours for a maximum of 48 hours. Fa[...]

times in succession. The parking lights will flash, and the siren will chirp 3 times confirming that selected feature 3 can be changed. 7 . Use the start button on the transmitter to change the selection of the programmable feature. If you are not sure what the setting for any feature is, press the start button one time, the parking lights will fla[...]

TESTING YOUR INST ALLA TION: W ARNING!! The following procedure must be performed after the installation of an Audiovox Remote Start Device. It is the responsibility of the installing technician to complete these tests. Failure to test the unit in the following manner may result in personal injury , property damage, or both. HOOD PIN SAFETY SHUT DO[...]

21 T o test the integrity of the Neutral Start Safety Circuit: 1. Set the vehicle parking brake. 2. Block the drive wheels to prevent vehicle movement. 3. T emporarily disconnect the Brown/Black positive shut down wire from the vehicle's brake switch. 4. Sitting in the vehicle, start the engine using the vehicle's ignition key . 5. Step o[...]

CAUTION! REMEMBER T O RECONNECT THE BROWN/BLACK WIRE TEMPORARIL Y DISCONNECTED IN STEP 3 DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE OPERA TION OF THE NEUTRAL SAFETY ST ART FEA TURE. KEY IN SENSOR CIRCUITS: If the vehicle you are working on does not have or you cannot locate the ECM reference wire, there are two alternatives a[...]

23 METHOD 2 T o connect to the key in sensor circuit as shown for method 2: A. Locate the control wire that connects the drivers door pin switch to the key in sensor switch. B. Cut this wire and connect the ignition cylinder side to chassis ground. C. Locate the key in sensor switch wire that connects the chime module to the ignition cylinder . D. [...]
