Summary of Contents for Audiovox Prestige Platinum APS 995

  • Page 1 Note : The method of manual override can either be selected to operate from the valet switch or operate as custom code. Be certain to place a check mark indicating the method used in the box located on the last page of the owner's manual. RF Programmable Features : Feature Selection 1 Chirp...
  • Page 2: Installation Of The Major Components

    NOTE : Once you enter the feature programming mode, do not allow more than 15 seconds to pass between steps, or the programming will be terminated. The APS-995 Remote Start/Alarm System is designed to be used with Automatic Transmission Vehicles Only! The unit provides a selectable ignition control that allows a number of selectable timed outputs for glow plug pre-heat which may be required for certain diesel vehicles, (see selectable feature #9).
  • Page 3: Control Switch

    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 hood and trunk locations away from water drain paths. If necessary, the included brackets may be used to move the switch away from rain gutters or allow mounting to the firewall behind the hood seal.
  • Page 4: Shock Sensor

    #8 self tapping sheet metal screw. Wire the relay as per the diagram found later in this manual. The APS-995 is to be used in vehicles with AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS only! Although this combi- nation Alarm/Remote Start unit is a sophisticated system with many advanced features, IT MUST NOT be installed into a vehicle with a manually operated transmission.
  • Page 5 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.
  • Page 6 WIRING CONNECTIONS: Multi Pin Accessory Input/Output Harness White w/ Red Trace 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's parking lights are ground switched, connect this wire to chassis ground.
  • Page 7 White w/ Black Trace 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.
  • Page 8 5. Connect the previously selected resistor from terminal #87 to the second (#2) wire (as shown). NOTE: The above information and following diagram is for the GM VATS system only. For GM PASS LOCK System you will require the Audiovox AS-PASS II Module. General Motors VATS By-Pass Diagram...
  • Page 9: Green W/ White/Black Trace Wire

    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 entry lighting whenever the optional Interior Illumination circuit is desired.
  • Page 10 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 is turned to the on and start positions and off when the key is off.
  • Page 11 Black Wire: Chassis Ground Source Connect the Black wire to a known vehicle ground source or to a solid clean metal part of the chassis. Be certain to remove any paint or grease and secure this wire with a self tapping screw and ring terminal. Chassis Ground Connection Detail Green w/ Orange Trace Wire: Tachometer Input Signal This wire will continually monitor the engine's tach rate while the unit is under power of the Remote Start...
  • Page 12 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 release or the circuit you wish to control.
  • Page 13: Wiring The 4 Pin Auxiliary Output Harness

    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.
  • Page 14 When the unit is selected for output during the start sequence, this output will be active at the same time Ign. 3 becomes active and will remain active until the vehicle has started. This will be used for one time read transponder circuits. When the unit is selected for transponder on, this output will become active at the same time ign.
  • Page 15 3 Wire Ground Switched Door Lock Circuits: In this application, the Red wire of the door lock harness provides a ground pulse during the arming sequence, or pulsed ground lock output. Connect the Red wire to the low current ground signal wire from the factory door lock switch to the factory door lock relay.
  • Page 16 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 wire provides a positive pulse during arming, or the pulsed + 12 volt lock output.
  • Page 17 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 Audiovox Fax Back service for information on your particular vehicle for properly connecting to these types of circuits.
  • Page 18 TIMED START 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.
  • Page 19 3. Connect the Yellow wire to a +12 volt ignition 1 source. This wire will have +12 volts with the ignition in the on and start position and have 0 volts with the ignition in the off position. 4. Connect the Green wire to the (Green) or (Orange/Green) tach input of the Audiovox remote start unit.
  • Page 20: Testing Your Installation

    If the unit fails this test, recheck your enable switch connection to the Ground and the Black/White wire of the Audiovox Remote Start Unit. If you have a plug in enable switch, check that the two pin connector is firmly seated in the mating connector on the control module.
  • Page 21: Mechanical Neutral Safety Switch Considerations

    4000 series diode. Shown is a typical GM Park/Neutral ECM input circuit. To connect the Audiovox remote start unit to the GM Park / Neutral ECM input: 1. Locate the Orange / Black reference wire in the" C2" connector found at the ECM in GM B Body vehicles or, locate the equivalent reference wire in the vehicle you are installing the Audiovox Remote Start Unit in.
  • Page 22 E. Connect the cathode (striped) side of a 4002 series diode to this same wire, and connect the (non striped) side to the negative shut down safety wire (Gray / Black) of the Audiovox Remote Start Unit. F. Connect terminal 86 of the relay to a fused +12 volt constant battery source.
  • Page 23: Completing The Installation

    If the hood pin switch is also used for an alarm trigger input, be certain to use the dual diode assembly packaged with the Audiovox Remote Start Unit as shown in this installation guide. (Page 9)
