Integrated Led/Valet Switch; Starter Kill Relay; Connecting Your Wires; Obtaining Constant 12V - Directed Electronics AM1 Installation Manual

integrated LED/Valet
Things to remember when positioning the integrated LED/Valet
• It should be visible from both sides and the
rear of the vehicle, if possible.
• It needs at least 1-1/2" clearance to the rear.
• It is easiest to use a small removable panel,
such as a switch blank or a dash bezel.
Remove it before drilling your 5/16" hole.
I I M M P P O O R R T T A A N N T T ! ! Do N N O O T T use a step drill bit (unibit) for drilling the 5/16" hole. It is rec-
ommended to use a 5/16" drill bit. Use care to ensure the hole is drilled straight.
Drilling at an angle can cause product malfunction.

starter kill relay

If the Starter Kill Relay or it's connections are immediately visible upon removal of the
underdash panel, they can easily be bypassed. Always make the relay and its con-
nections difficult to discern from the factory wiring! Exposed yellow butt connectors do
not look like factory parts, and will not fool anyone! For this reason, routing the starter
kill wires away from the steering column is recommended.

connecting your wires

Now that you have decided where each component will be located, you're going to
find the wires in the car that the security system will be connected to.
I I M M P P O O R R T T A A N N T T ! ! Do not use a 12V test light to find these wires! All testing described in
this manual is described using a digital multimeter.

obtaining constant 12V

We recommend two possible sources for 12V constant: The (+) terminal of the battery,
or the constant supply to the ignition switch. A A l l w w a a y y s s i i n n s s t t a a l l l l a a f f u u s s e e w w i i t t h h i i n n 1 1 2 2 i i n n c c h h e e s s o o f f
