Page 2: Installation Of The Major Components
This Remote Start/Keyless Entry System is designed for use with Automatic Transmission Vehicles Only! The unit provides wait to start input for glow plug pre-heat which will be used for all diesel applications. If this wire is not connected, then the unit will remain in the Gasoline mode setting, which will crank the car when the RF signal is received with no delay. - Page 3 THE TRANSCEIVER/ANTENNA ASSEMBLY: The Superheterodyne Transceiver Antenna Assembly provided with this unit allows routing from below the dash- board for maximum operating range. Choose a location above the belt line (dashboard) of the vehicle for best reception. Special considerations must be made for windshield glass as some newer vehicles utilize a metallic shielded window glass that will inhibit or restrict RF reception.
- Page 4 Failure to connect this wire to the ignition switch side of the neutral safety switch can result in personal injury and property damage. SEE NEUTRAL START SAFETY TEST FOR FURTHER DETAILS. BLUE WIRE: Ignition 1 Output Connect this wire to the ignition 1 wire from the ignition switch. This wire will show +12 volts when the ignition key is turned to the to the "ON"...
- Page 5 WIRING CONNECTIONS: 12 Pin Input / Output Harness 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. BLACK w/WHITE TRACER WIRE: Control Switch The Black w/ White tracer wire provides ON-OFF control of the Remote Starter.
- Page 6 Brake Switch Positive Shutdown Detail YELLOW w/ BLACK Tracer Wire: + 12 Volt Alarm By - Pass Output NOTE: You must disconnect the ignition input of the alarm from any other wire that it is presently connected to in the vehicle. This wire provides a + 12 Volt output when the ignition key is turned to the “ON”...
- Page 7 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 8: Wiring The 4 Pin Auxiliary Output Harness
Green/Orange Wire: Tach Sensor Input This wire will continually monitor the engine 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. - Page 9 NOTE: The outputs above are low current outputs and must be used with a relay if the circuit's requirement is more than 300 mA. 2 Pin Door Lock/Unlock Harness: (White Connector) The Red & Green Door Lock/Unlock output wires provide either a pulsed ground or pulsed + 12 volts to control the vehicle door lock / unlock circuits.
- Page 10 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 11: Testing Your Installation
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 tach input of the Audiovox remote start unit. TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION:... -
Page 12: Hood Pin Safety Shut Down
3. Raise the hood and confirm that the remote start unit shuts down. If the unit fails this test, recheck your pin switch connection to the Gray/Black wire of the Audiovox Remote Start Unit. DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE OPERATION OF THE HOOD PIN SAFETY SHUT DOWN FEATURE. -
Page 13: Key In Sensor Circuits
The installation required for this application (shown below), indicates the slight reconfiguration of the control switch wiring and the addition of a 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. - Page 14 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 15: Completing The Installation
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION: After you have confirmed the operation of the Audiovox Remote Start unit and tested all the safety features of the system: 1. If you have not done so already, place the red rubber handle cover over the handle of the control switch for ease of identification. - Page 16 © 2004 Audiovox Electronics Corp., Hauppauge, NY 11788 128-7199 128-7199 16 of 16...
