Page 3: Warning! Safety First
warning! safety first The following safety warnings must be observed at all times: Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized Directed dealer. When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal from the remote control transmitter. -
Page 4: Installation Points To Remember
installation points to remember before beginning the installation IMPORTANT! This product is designed for fuel-injected, automatic transmission vehicles only. Installing it in a standard transmission vehicle is dangerous and is contrary to its intended use. Please read this entire installation guide before beginning the installation. The installation of this remote start system requires interfacing with many of the vehicle’s systems. -

Keep the control module away from the heater core (or any other heat sources) and any obvious leaks. The higher the control module is in the vehicle, the better the transmitter range will be. Some good control module locations: Above the glove box, inside the center console, above the under-dash fuse box, or above the radio. -
Page 6: Optional Starter Kill Relay
optional starter kill relay If the optional starter kill relay or its connections are immediately visible upon removal of the under-dash panel, they can easily be bypassed. Always make the relay and its connections difficult to discern from the factory wiring! Exposed yellow butt connectors do not look like factory parts, and will not fool anyone! For this reason, routing the starter kill wires away from the steering column is recommended. -
Page 7: Finding The 12V Switched Ignition Wire
finding the 12V switched ignition wire The ignition wire is powered when the key is in the run or start position. This is because the ignition wire powers the ignition system (spark plugs, coil) as well as the fuel delivery system (fuel pump, fuel injection computer). Accessory wires lose power when the key is in the start position to make more current available to the starter motor. -
Page 8: Finding A (+) Brake Light Wire
How to find the starter wire with your multimeter: 1. Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine). 2. Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground. 3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the starter wire. The steering column is an excellent place to find this wire. -
Page 9: Finding The Rpm Input Wire
finding the RPM input wire To test for a tachometer wire, a multimeter capable of testing AC voltage must be used. The tachometer wire will show between 1V and 6V AC. In multi-coil ignition systems, the system can learn individual coil wires. Individual coil wires in a multi-coil ignition system will register lower amounts of AC voltage. -

primary harness (H1) wire connection guide H1/1 ORANGE (-) ground-when-armed output This wire supplies a (-)500 mA ground as long as the system is armed. This output ceases as soon as the system is disarmed. The orange wire may be wired to an optional Directed Electronics, Inc. 8618 starter kill relay. H1/2 WHITE (+/-) selectable light flash output As shipped, this wire should be connected to the (+) parking light wire. - Page 14 H1/3 WHITE/BLUE (-) remote start activation input This input comes from the factory set to 2 activation pulses. This means that it is necessary to have 2 consecu- tive ground pulses on the white/blue wire for the remote start to activate or to deactivate. The same holds true for the remote control activation when set to a two pulse setting it is necessary to press the button twice for the remote start to activate or deactivate.
- Page 15 within 15 seconds after unlocking the driver's door. The BLUE wire outputs a low current (-) pulse on the second press of the unlock button of the transmitter. This negative unlock output is used to unlock the passenger doors. NOTE: The second unlock output feature is not available if the double pulse unlock feature is turned on.
- Page 16 H1/11 RED (+)12V constant power input Before connecting this wire, remove the supplied fuse. Connect to the battery positive terminal or the constant 12V supply to the ignition switch. NOTE: Always use a fuse within 12 inches of the point you obtain (+)12V. Do not use the 10A fuse in the harness for this purpose.

This can be used to pulse the arm wire of the vehicle's factory anti-theft device. - Page 19 H2/4 LIGHT GREEN/BLACK (-) auxiliary output This wire sends a negative pulse every time the remote start is activated or the doors are unlocked. This can be used to pulse the disarm wire of the vehicle's factory anti-theft device. Use a relay to send a (-) or (+) pulse to the disarm wire as shown in the following diagrams.

Page 28: Transmitter/Receiver Learn Routine
transmitter/receiver learn routine The system comes with transmitters that have been taught to the receiver. The receiver can store up to 4 differ- ent transmitter codes in memory. Use the following learn routine to add transmitters to the system or to change button assignments if desired. - Page 29 Transmit. While HOLDING the Valet/Program switch, press the button on the transmitter that you would like to control the selected receiver channel. The unit will chirp to confirm that the code has been successfully programmed. It is not possible to teach a transmitter button to the system more than once.

menu #2 2-1 ENGINE CHECK ON/OFF: In the default setting the remote start will monitor either the vehicle's tach wire or voltage depending on the programming of Feature 2-2. If programmed off, the vehicle will crank for the pro- grammed crank time (Feature 2-5) and will not verify with tach or voltage that the vehicle is running. In the off setting, if the vehicle fails to start, the ignition can stay on for the entire run duration. -

f. Activate the remote start system. If the starter engages, immediately step on the brake to shut down the system. If it does engage, recheck the neutral safety input connection. The vehicle may use a mechanical neutral safety switch. (See H3/5 BLACK/WHITE neutral safety switch input in Remote Start Harness Wire Connection Guide section of this guide.) If the starter does not engage, the test is complete. - Page 42 lite. Also make sure that the ground wire is going to a chassis ground and not to something under the dash. 3. Check diagnostics. The diagnostics will tell you which shutdown is active or not connected. The remote start will activate but the starter never engages. 1.
