Installing Your Wired Device
4
Wiring the device into a vehicle is easy, and requires
installation inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
The MOTOsafety wired device has a series of wires — you will
only need to attach three of these wires to your vehicle (the
additional wires are for future features or functions). The three
wires you need are: the red wire (power), the longer of the
two black wires (ground) and the white wire (ignition sense).
a. Find the constant red power wire in your vehicle. Cut and strip this wire.
b. Cut and strip the red wire on the MOTOsafety GPS device.
c. Connect the two red wires and crimp. This connection provides power to the device.
d. Connect the MOTOsafety black wire to your vehicle's chassis. This connection serves as a
ground for the device.
e. Locate the vehicle's ignition wire (reference the vehicle's wiring diagram in order to locate).
f. Verify the ignition wire by measuring the operating voltage while the key is turned to the ON or START
position (the voltage should read 0 VDC when the key is in the o position, and typically between 11V and
14V when in the ON position).
g. Connect the white wire on the MOTOsafety device to the vehicle's ignition wire. This connection allows the
device to report ignition OFF and ON events.
h. An optional plastic zip tie is included to secure the device under the vehicle dash with the label that reads
"Label Side Down" facing down.

Con rm the power connection
Following installation, allow 5-10 minutes for the MOTOsafety device to power up and obtain a
cellular and GPS x. Your vehicle must be outside and not in a covered area so that it will receive GPS
signal. When working properly, the blue light will blink once every 3 seconds and you will see a
blinking green light.
You should see your car's location on the map (may take up to two hours).

Please note: Should your vehicle require a jump start, you will have to replace the fuse in the wiring harness with a 3 volt fuse.
