5 Wire Reversing Polarity Systems
This power doorlock system differs from the negative and positive pulse systems in that there
is no doorlock control unit or relays. In this type of system, the switches themselves supply
the positive voltage directly to the doorlock actuators, and, more importantly, provide the
return ground path. It is important to note that the lock and unlock wires in this system actually
rest at chassis ground. This means that both the lock and unlock wires must be "opened", or
cut, to make the proper connections.
Examine the wires on the back of the switch. (Normally 5 wires will be found)
1) One wire will show +12 Volts, regardless of the switch's position.
2) Two wires will be grounded regardless of the switch's position.
3) One wire will show +12 Volts only when the switch is pushed to "Lock".
4) One wire will show +12 Volts only when the switch is pushed to "Unlock".
- When the lock /unlock wires are found, they must be cut one at a time. If the correct wires
are cut the door locking system should not operate from the primary switch.
- Notice that in the diagram the driver's switch is the primary or "Master" switch (in some
vehicles, the primary switch is on the passenger's side). The half of the cut wires which
come from this primary switch are referred to as the "Switch" side. The half of the cut wires
which go to the secondary switch are referred to as the "Motor" side even though the cut
is made between the switches.

Introduction & Safety Considerations
Congratulations on your purchase of the COMFORT START Keyless Entry
and Remote Starter unit. The Comfort Start offers you the convenience of lock-
ing and unlocking your vehicle's doors with the press of a button, and the starting
of your vehicle's engine from the comfort of your home or office, allowing your
vehicle to warm up in winter and cool down in summer. The Comfort Start can
also be optionally configured to remotely open your vehicle's trunk.
It is highly recommended that this system be professionally installed, as the
complexity of the modern automobile and the nature of circuits to be accessed is
often beyond the abilities of most do-it-yourselfers.
There are several important safety considerations with using and installing
the Comfort Start keyless entry and remote starter. Among them are:
- This unit is for vehicles with an automatic transmission only. Installation in a
vehicle equipped with a manual transmission can result in property damage or
personal injury.
- This unit is for fuel injected gasoline or diesel engines.
- Children should not be left unattended in, or be allowed to play with the activat-
ing transmitters of any remote starter equipped vehicle.
- Do not use the remote starter feature in an enclosed garage or other structure.
