Remote Start Input - 5-Pin Connector - Viper 5901 Installation Manual

➢ Remote start input - 5-pin connector

1 BLACK/WHITE
Connect this wire to a ground source if installing this unit in an automatic trans-
mission vehicle. If this unit is being installed in a manual transmission vehicle then
connect it to the emergency brake wire. This input MUST rest at ground in order
for the remote start system to operate.
Important! Always perform the steps outlined in Safety Check section to verify
that the vehicle cannot be started in ANY drive gear and that the override switch
is functioning properly.
2 VIOLET/WHITE
This input provides the module with information about the engine's revolutions
per minute (RPMs). It can be connected to the uncommon colored wire of the
fuel injector, the crankshaft position sensor, the camshaft position sensor or the
negative side of the coil in vehicles with conventional coils. In multi-coil and high
energy ignition systems locating a proper signal may be more difficult. (See
Finding the Wires You Need section of this guide.) Once connected, you must
teach the system the tach signal.
Note: This wire MUST be used when installing this unit on a manual transmis-
sion.
3 BROWN
This wire MUST be connected to the vehicle's brake light wire. This is the wire
that shows (+) 12V when the brake pedal is depressed. The remote start is
disabled or shuts down any time the brake pedal is depressed. Note: This wire
MUST be used when installing this unit on a manual transmission.
4 GRAY
This wire MUST be connected to a hoodpin switch. This input disables or shuts
down the remote start when the hood is opened. It also triggers the security sys-
tem if the hood is opened while the system is armed. (See Feature Descriptions,
Menu #1 feature #11 for details about programming.)
