stage will delay the starter output until this wire drops the 12 volts. In other words, in a Diesel vehicle with
glow plug preheat circuit, when the ignition is turned on, the vehicle will not crank until the glow plugs are
hot enough to fire the atomized fuel oil when injected into the cylinder. By connecting this wire to the glow
plug + 12 volt wire, when the remote start unit activates the ignition one output, the glow plug output also
activates. The remote start sees the green/yellow with positive voltage and waits for this to go inactive(
drop to 0 volts) before activating the starter motor. If this wire is not used or you have difficulty accessing
the glow plug preheat circuit, you may elect to utilize the Diesel timed output as specified in Remote Start
feature selection Bank 3 Feature #12.
NOTE: If green/yellow is used, it will override or negate any setting of bank 3 feature #12.
9 Gray:
(-) Inhibit / Shut Down
Any time ground is applied to the Gray wire, the Remote Starter will be prevented from operating, even
if the signal is received from the transmitter. If there is a neutral start wire in the vehicle that switches
ground when the vehicle is in any gear other than Park or Neutral, this wire can be connected to that
vehicle wire to prevent starting while in gear.
If the vehicle you are working switches ground to the brake light circuit, this wire can be connected to
the output side of the brake switch. This will allow the Remote Start to shut down if an attempt is made
to operate the vehicle without the key while running under the control of the Remote Start. In most ve-
hicles, in order to shift into gear, the brake pedal must be depressed. The brake input will in turn cause
the remote start unit to shut off.
10 Green w/ Orange trace Wire: Tachometer Input Signal
This wire will continually monitor the engine's tach rate while the unit is under power of the Remote
Start module. This wire will be routed to the vehicle ECM tach input or through the firewall into the
engine compartment and connect to the negative side of the ignition coil. This Remote Start unit learns
the tach rate of the vehicle and in most cases will operate properly from one coil pack regardless of the
number of cylinders. If the unit has difficulty sensing a single coil, this input can connect to an injec-
tor wire as an alternate. Note: For Hybrid mode selection, Bank 3 feature selection 5, this connection
is not required, the unit will start the vehicle and run the allotted time based on feature selection and
crank duration.
11 Dark Blue Wire: (-) 300mA Pulsed Channel 3 Output (Trunk)
The Dark Blue wire supplies a 300mA ground pulsed output whenever channel three of the receiver
is accessed. Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button for three seconds will access chan-
nel three. This is a low current output and must be connected to a relay to supply power to the trunk
release or the circuit you wish to control. Connect the Dark Blue wire to terminal # 86 of a 30 amp au-
tomotive relay Connect terminal # 85 of the relay to a fused + 12 volt source. Connect the common,
normally open, and normally closed contacts of the relay to perform the selected function of channel 3.
12 Green w/ Black trace Wire: (-) 300mA Pulsed Channel 4 Output
The Green w/ Black Trace wire supplies a 300 mA switched output whenever channel four of the receiver
is accessed. Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button(s) will provide a 1 second pulse to channel
four This is a low current output and must be connected to a relay to supply power to the device you intend
to control. Connect Green w/ Black Trace wire to terminal #86 of a 30 amp automotive relay. Connect
terminal #85 of the relay to a fused + 12 volt source. Connect the common, normally open, and normally
closed contacts of the relay to perform the selected function of the channel 4 output.
NOTE: This wire also can be used for defrost activation as dictated by the setting of feature # 1 of Bank 3.
Anytime the vehicle is running under control of the Remote Start and Channel 4 is activated, then depen-
dent on the selection of this feature, Green/Black will be activated for a 1 second pulse, or for 10 minutes.
