if the alarm is armed (including while the alarm is activated), and will draw current
from the vehicle's electrical system only if an attempt is made to start the vehicle.
CONNECTION: To interrupt the vehicle's starter circuit, the starter wire must be
located and cut. It is recommended that this connection be done as close to the
ignition switch as possible. Use a voltmeter, not a test light, to find the correct wire,
which is the wire from the ignition switch to the starter solenoid. CAUTION! Avoid
the airbag circuit! Improper use of a test light can cause deployment of the airbag,
which may result in bodily injury! Test lights can also damage on-board computers
and associated sensors. The starter wire will read +12 Volts only when ignition
key is in "start" position (cranking the engine). Cut this wire at a suitable location.
Confirm that this is the correct wire by turning the ignition switch to the "start"
