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.

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"...

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.

This wire provides a + 12 Volt output when the ignition key is turned to the “ON”...
- Page 7 A. Shock Sensor By Pass: If there is Shock Sensor used with an alarm system and it is not shunted during the Remote Start activation period, then vibration from the running vehicle can cause the alarm to trigger. In this case, connect the Light Blue Wire to terminal #86 of a external relay.

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 Resistive Circuits, As Well As 4 Wire Polarity Reversal and 5 Wire Alternating 12 Volt Door Lock Control Circuits 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.

If the tach rate is not properly programmed to the specific vehicle, the unit may not realize that the vehicle is running in certain instances and could re-engage the starter motor.

Page 12: Hood Pin Safety Shut Down
HOOD PIN SAFETY SHUT DOWN: The intention of the hood pin safety shut down is to prevent the Remote Start unit from being activated while a mechanic or vehicle owner is performing normal routine vehicle maintenance. To test the integrity of this circuit: 1. -
Page 13: Mechanical Neutral Safety Switch Considerations
W A R N I N G ! ! REMEMBER TO RECONNECT THE BROWN/BLACK WIRE TEMPORARILY DISCONNECTED IN STEP 3. DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE OPERATION OF THE NEUTRAL SAFETY START FEATURE. MECHANICAL NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH CONSIDERATIONS: Mechanical neutral safety switch configurations differ slightly in that they do not offer the same level of safety when installing a remote start device. - Page 14 Method 2 will allow the safety required for the remote start unit and prevent the vehicle from starting while in any gear other than Park or Neutral while the key is in the ignition cylinder. However, the original factory key in chime module will not alert the owner that the key has been left in the ignition switch.

Page 15: Completing The Installation
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. - Page 16 © 2004 Audiovox Electronics Corp., Hauppauge, NY 11788 128-7199 128-7199 16 of 16...
