Summary of Contents for Audiovox Car Security System AX-900

  • Page 1 Note : The method of manual override can either be selected to operate from the valet switch or operate as custom code. Be certain to place a check mark indicating the method used in the box located on the last page of the owner's manual. RF Programmable Features : Feature Selection 1 Chirp...

  • Page 4 HOOD AND TRUNK PIN SWITCHES: The pin switches included in this package are intended for protecting the hood and trunk areas of the vehicle. In all cases, the switch must be mounted to a grounded metal surface. When the pin switch is activated, (hood/trunk open), it will supply a ground to the input wire activating the alarm.
  • Page 5 CONTROL SWITCH: Select a mounting location known and accessible to the operator of the vehicle. A lower dash panel, kick panel, or glove box is desirable. Inspect behind the chosen location to insure that adequate clearance is allowed for the body of the switch, and also that the drill will not penetrate any existing factory wiring or fluid lines.
  • Page 6 IMPORTANT! It is the responsibility of the installing technician to determine the load factor of the vehicles electrical circuits when the vehicle is running, and to adequately fuse the two power wires based on that load. If the vehicle, running under load with the air conditioner, heater blower motor and accessories exceed 24 Amps continuous, we recommend that two fuses be used in combination on each power wire as shown below.
  • Page 7 PINK/WHITE Wire: Ignition 2 Output Connect this wire to the ignition 2 wire from the ignition switch. This wire will show + 12 volts when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" or "RUN" position and is some cases the "START" or CRANK" position. This wire will show 0 volts when the key is turned to the "OFF"...
  • Page 8 Parking Light Wiring Detail Brown Wire: (+) Siren Output This is the positive siren feed wire. Route this wire through a grommet in the firewall to the siren location. Connect the Brown wire to the Red wire of the Siren. Secure the Black wire of the Siren to a known chassis ground or solid clean metal surface.
  • Page 9 Blue Wire: (-) Instant Trigger Input This is the instant on ground trigger input wire. This wire must be connected to the hood and trunk pin switches previously installed. Note: This wire will be shunted when remote control channel 2 is accessed, (trunk release). This wire will remain shunted all the while there is ground present and for 5 seconds after the ground is removed.
  • Page 10 4. Cut (#1) wire (as shown), and connect the ignition switch side of the cut wire to terminal #87a of the relay. Connect the other side of the (#1) wire to terminal #30. 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.
  • Page 11 Failure to do so may result in personal injury or property damage. See detail of wiring in the following diagram. This wire may also be used if the vehicle brake light circuit switches ground to the brake lights. An isolation diode must be used for ground switched brake light circuits and must be connected to the output of the brake switch.
  • Page 12 Brown w/ Red Trace Wire: Positive Inhibit Input + Trigger When Armed This wire provides an instant shutdown for the Remote Start Control module whenever it gets + 12 volts and triggers the alarm when armed. If the Brake lights switch in the vehicle switches + 12 volts to the brake light circuit, connect this wire to the output side of the brake switch.
  • Page 13 Tachometer Input Wiring Detail Green Wire: Negative Door Trigger If the vehicle's door courtesy light switches ground when the door is opened, (Most GMs and Imports), you must connect this wire to the negative output from one of the vehicle's door pin switches. In most cases this wire will need to be connected to only one door switch no matter how many doors the vehicle has as most door lighting circuits are wired in parallel.
  • Page 14 White w/ Blue Trace Wire: 300mA Pulsed or Latched Channel 4 Output This wire supplies a 300 mA switched output whenever channel four of the receiver is accessed. Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button(s) will access channel four and will remain active, for up to 8 seconds, as long as the transmitter button(s) is held.
  • Page 15 WARNING: Connecting the light blue/black to the high current circuits, will damage the control module. Connect the light blue/black wire to terminal 86 of the AS - 9256 relay (or equivalent 30 A automotive relay), and wire the remaining relay contacts to perform the selected function of channel 7. Grey w/Black Trace Wire: DIESEL WAIT TO START INPUT This wire, when connected to the wire that get + 12 volts during the glow plug preheat stage will delay the starter output until this wire drops the 12 volts.
  • Page 16 4 Pin Upgrade Telematic Module: Red = + 5 Volts / Black = Ground / White = Data TX / Yellow = Data RX Connect the 4 pin harness found in the Telematic one way module kit to the mating port on the PTUGM. NOTE: If using the TWO WAY Telematic module, only Ground, TX, and RX are used on this port, the + 12 volt supply for the two way module must be sourced separately or the unit will not operate.
  • Page 17 3 Wire Positive Switched Door Locks: In this application, the Green wire of the door lock harness provides a + 12 volt pulse during the disarming sequence, or pulsed 12 volt unlock output. Connect the Green wire to the low current 12 volt signal wire from the factory door unlock switch to the factory door unlock relay.
  • Page 18 3 Wire Positive Switched 2 Step Door Locks The Blue wire provides a positive pulse during arming or the pulsed + 12 volt lock output. Connect the blue wire to the wire that provides a low current positive signal from the factory door lock switch to the factory door lock control relay.
  • Page 19 Note: 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, and or fixed resistors. 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 21 NOTE: If the unit fails to learn tach rate due to an improper tachometer connection or a poor tach source, the parking lights will not flash. To correct this situation, locate and connect the Purple/White wire to the proper tach signal, and then repeat the tach learn routine.
  • Page 22 TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION: CAUTION!! The following procedure must be performed after the installation of an Audiovox Remote Start Device. It is the responsibility of the installing technician to complete these tests. Failure to test the unit in the following manner may result in personal injury, property damage, or both. 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.
  • Page 23 The information concerning the Mechanical Neutral Safety Switch provided below will help you to determine if the vehicle you are working on has this type of safety switch and will provide alternate wiring methods to accom- modate this situation. 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 24 KEY IN SENSOR CIRCUITS: If the vehicle you are working on does not have or you cannot locate the ECM reference wire, there are two alternatives available. Although not preferred, the vehicle Key In Sensor may be reconfigured to allow a margin of safety and will prevent the vehicle with a Mechanical Neutral Start Switch from starting in gear.
  • Page 25 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.
  • Page 26 5. Check the vehicle's wipers, lights, horn, etc... to insure proper operation. 6. Replace all panels that were removed during installation, and retest the system. 7. Explain all activated features and safety systems associated with Remote Start Unit installed to the customer.
