h1/12 white/red light flash input I I M M P P O O R R T T A A N N T T ! ! Always confirm light flash polarity before connecting Hf1/H12 or dam- age to the vehicle lighting system could occur. This wire is the input for the on-board dual light flash relay.
h1/17 orange ground when armed This wire provides a (-) ground output as long as the system is armed and will cease when the system is disarmed. This output can be used for an additional immobilizer relay or to control additional accessories such as window automation, voice modules, or pagers.
h2/8 pink/black (-) accessory output C (200mA) This wire produces a 200mA output when activated by the remote control and can be used to operate a variety of accessories. All accessory outputs can be programmed to different types of outputs. Please see Note #6 in the programming notes section of this guide.
The UltraSecure immobilizer circuit in this G5 system is a unique new design that incorporates the immobilizer security of Clifford without the possibility of failure due to power loss that could potentially strand the user. The level of security can be set by leaving in or removing the jumper located next to the immobilizer wires exiting the module.
intellistart installation I I M M P P O O R R T T A A N N T T ! ! Do not use any testing tool other than a digital multi-meter to prevent costly damage to the vehicle. Use of a test light may cause grounding of sensitive elec- trical components that can damage the on-board vehicle computer and processors resulting in substantial cost for replacement.
How to find (+)12V ignition with your multimeter: Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine). Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground. Probe the wire you suspect of being the ignition wire. The steering column har- ness or ignition switch harness is an excellent place to find this wire.
finding a (+) brake light wire Most vehicles use a (+) brake light circuit. The (+) brake light wire is often found near the brake pedal. How to find a (+) brake light flash wire with your multimeter: Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine). Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.
warning! On vehicles with air bags or supplemental restraint systems (SRS) you may notice a bright yellow tube with small wires in it marked SRS underneath the steering column near the key cylinder. DO NOT tamp- er or unplug these for any reason to prevent costly dam- ages to your vehicle or personal injury.

Type G: Positive (+) multiplex resistor-based circuit. Type H: Negative (-) multiplex resistor-based circuit. at the switch Three-wire switches will have either a constant ground input or a constant (+)12V input, along with the pulsed lock and unlock outputs to the factory relays. Some vehicles have no external switch.
type B: negative-triggered, relay-driven system I I M M P P O O R R T T A A N N T T ! ! The H2/1 and H2/6 wires are not required for wiring the door locks. For detailed wiring instructions for these two wires, refer to the beginning of the Door Lock Harness (H2) Wire Connection Guide section.
type C: reversing polarity system Use these instructions if the power door lock switch has four or five heavy-gauge wires. This type of switch has two outputs that rest at (-) ground.

H2/5 BLUE/BLACK: Connect the blue/black wire to the motor side of the unlock wire. H2/6 BROWN/BLACK: Connect the brown/black wire to the master switch side of the unlock wire. The master switch side will show (+)12V when the master switch is in the unlock position and (-) ground when the master switch is in the middle position.
type D: after-market actuators Vehicles without factory power door locks or with single-point central locking only require the installation of one actuator per door. This requires mounting the door lock actuator inside the door. Other vehicles may only require one actuator installed in the driver's door if all door locks are operated when the driver's lock is used.
type E: electronically-activated vacuum systems Type E door locks are controlled by an electrically activated vacuum pump. Test by locking doors from the passenger key cylinder. If all the doors lock, the vehicle's door lock system can be wired as type E. The control wire can be found in either kick panel and will show (+)12 volt when doors are unlocked and (-) ground when doors are locked.
type F: one-wire system Type F door locks usually require a negative pulse to unlock and cutting the wire to lock the door. In some vehicles, these functions are reversed. WHITE/BLACK H2/1 LOCK #87A NORMALLY CLOSED GREEN/BLACK H2/2 LOCK #30 COMMON (OUTPUT) #87A ON-BOARD LOCK...
type G: positive (+) multiplex single-resistor type If one resistor is used in the door lock switch/key cylinder, the wire will pulse (+)12V in one direction and less than (+)12V when operated in the opposite direction. two-resistor type If two resistors are used in the factory door lock switch/key cylinder, the switch/key cylinder will read less than (+)12V in both directions.

Unlike other back-up battery sirens that constantly drain the car battery, Clifford's design draws charging current only when the ignition is on (i.e., engine running). If the inter- nal battery is discharged, the arm/disarm chirps are muted.
peripheral plug-in harnesses super bright blue led, 2-pin white plug The super bright LED operates at (+) 2V DC. Make sure the LED wires are not short- ed to ground as the LED will be damaged. Multiple LEDs can be used, but they must be wired in series.
mounting the receiver/antenna N N O O T T E E : : Be sure not to bundle or coil excess cable as this will reduce the range. The receiver/antenna position should be discussed with the vehicle owner prior to installation since the antenna may be visible to the vehicle’s operator.
arming/disarming diagnostics The systems microprocessor monitors and reports all active and violated zones when arming and disarming the system. arming Zones that are triggered at the time the system is armed are reported by an addition- al set of status chirps called Malfunction AutoBypass. The specific zone bypassed is then reported by the LED.

mounting the tilt sensor The sensor control module must be mounted at an angle no greater than 45 degrees, with respect to the horizontal plane of the vehicle, and it must be mounted with the case top facing upward. We recommend mounting the control module to the floor of the vehicle.
remote adjustable proximity sensor The proximity sensor input circuitry has been improved for G5 so the sensor only has power when the alarm is armed. While driving this protects highly sensitive vehicle electronics (i.e. radar detectors) that can be affected by outside interference. However, this does change the way the sensor is adjusted but will not affect normal operation of the sensor.
To adjust Primary Zone Press of the remote control to increase sensitivity. Press of the remote control to decrease sensitivity. The sensor Primary zone can be tested at any time during adjustment and will generate 1 siren chirp each time the zone is activated. Press to adjust Warn-Away zone Siren chirps 1 time.
