Audiovox AS 9075 Installation Manual page 2

The AS-9075 Remote Start/Keyless Entry System is designed to be used with Automatic Transmission
Vehicles Only! The unit provides a selectable ignition control that allows a 10 second output for glow plug
preheat which may be required for certain diesel vehicles, (see selectable feature #5). If the diesel engine has
a instant fire, (no glow plug preheat system), feature #5 should remain in the default Gasoline mode setting.
For diesel applications, consult your dealer for the type of ignition system used in your particular vehicle.
Regardless of the vehicle, Gasoline or Diesel, for every installation, the vehicle MUST HAVE a Tach Signal
Output, and an Automatic Transmission.
INSTALLATION OF THE MAJOR COMPONENTS:
CONTROL MODULE:
Select a mounting location inside the passenger compartment (up behind the dashboard). The mounting
location selected must be within 24" of the ignition switch wiring harness to allow connection of the 6-pin
main wiring harness.
Be certain that the chosen location will not interfere with proper operation of the vehicle. Avoid mounting the
module to or routing the wiring around the steering shaft/column, as the module or wiring may wrap around or
block the steering wheel preventing proper control of the vehicle. Secure the module in the chosen location
using cable ties or screws as necessary.
Do Not Mount The Module In The Engine Compartment, as it is not waterproof.
HOOD PIN SWITCH:
The pin switch included in this package 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 switch in an area under the hood that is 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. In either case the switch must be set up to allow the hood door
to depress the switch at least 1/4 inch when the hood is closed and fully extended when the hood is opened.
For direct mounting, a 1/4 inch hole must be drilled. Carefully check behind the chosen location to insure the
drill will not penetrate any existing factory wiring or fluid lines. Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and
thread the pin switch into it using a 7/16" nut driver or deep well socket. If using the mounting bracket, first
secure the bracket to the desired location and secure the pin switch in the pre-threaded mounting bracket
hole.
PROGRAM SWITCH / CONTROL SWITCH:
Select a mounting location that is within reach of the ignition switch, as this switch, in combination with the
ignition switch and brake, will be used to program the selectable features of the system. It is suggested that
the switch be mounted to the lower dash panel in the driver's area. Inspect behind the chosen location to
insure that adequate clearance is allowed for the body of the switch, and also that the drill will not penetrate
any existing factory wiring or fluid lines. Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and mount the switch by
passing it through the panel from the underside. Secure the switch using the nut, star washer, and on/off face
plate. It is best to oriented the switch to allow the on position to be up toward the driver and the off position
to be down or away from the driver. Route the switch wires toward the control module.
The AS-9075 is to be used in vehicles with AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS only! Although this Remote
Start unit is a sophisticated system with many advanced features, IT MUST NOT be installed into a vehicle
with a manually operated transmission. Doing so may result in serious personal injury and property damage.
IMPORTANT!
DO NOT PLUG THE SIX PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS OR THE MULTI PIN INPUT / OUTPUT HARNESS
INTO THE CONTROL MODULE UNTIL ALL CONNECTIONS TO THE VEHICLE HAVE BEEN MADE.
AFTER SELECTING YOUR TARGET WIRES AS DEFINED BELOW, DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE
BATTERY CABLE FROM THE VEHICLE BATTERY PRIOR TO MAKING ANY CONNECTIONS.
