WIRING: 18-PIN Connector Cont.
BRAKE RESET:
There are 2 Brake reset input wires, (+) White and (-) White/black. The White is (+) for the brake pedal. The
White/black is for (-) hand brake or emergency brake on manual transmission vehicles. Option # 26 must be
activated for the White/black wire to function.
White: (+12V) Brake Pedal Reset
Connect the White wire to the side of brake pedal switch that shows +12 volts ONLY when pedal is depressed. This
will turn off the remote start if someone attempts to drive the car without the keys or if the Ignition key is not turned
on all the way.
WHITE/BLACK: (-) Hand Brake Reset for Manual Transmission
Option #26 – Manual Transmission must be set for the Hand Brake Reset wire to work. Connect the White/black
wire to the side of the hand brake that shows (-) ONLY when the hand brake is set. In this mode, the remote start
will turn off when the hand brake is released. A Databus module can also supply the Hand Brake status signal
on most late model vehicles. Please check Databus module features before connecting hand brake wire.
NOTE : May need to diode isolate hand brake to keep feedback from vehicle.
