METHOD 2
To 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. Cut this wire and connect the ignition cylinder side to the Remote Start Negative Safety Shut down
Wire Gray/Black, using a 4002 series diode as shown above.
NOTE: A second 4002 series diode may be required to maintain the integrity of the hood open, shut
down circuit. If this is the case, it must be installed as shown in the diagram above. The anode (Non
Striped) side must be connected to the Gray/Black wire of the Remote Start Unit. The cathode (Striped)
side must be connected to the hood pin switch. IIf the hood pin switch is also used for an alarm trigger
input, be certain to use the dual diode set up shown earlier in this manual.
WARNING! AFTER THE CONNECTION OF THE NEUTRAL START SAFETY WIRE AS INDICATED IN
ANY OF THE PREVIOUS ALTERNATE CONFIGURATIONS, THIS CIRCUIT MUST BE TESTED FOR
OPERATION.
Retest by following the steps outlined in the NEUTRAL START SAFETY TEST shown in this manual.
4 PIN IN VEHICLE DATA BUS PORT (IDB Port)
The 4 pin port located on the side of this module is for proprietary Audiovox data bus interface modules.
These modules are used to access a variety of features in the vehicle which can be as simple as door
trigger inputs, to more complex door locks outputs, or transponder interfaces for remote starting.
CAUTION! DO NOT connect anything to this port other than the Audiovox IDB modules or damage to
the Remote Start module will occur. All installation instructions for the IDB modules will be packaged
with the individual component along with the proper 4 pin wiring harness requires to access the data
transmit and receive as well as the proper voltage levels for the interface.
