Red Wire - DesignTech Smart Alarm 20620 Installation Manual

Step 3 +12 Volts
Connect the RED wire with its in-line fuseholder and 15 amp fuse to
the +12 volt ("+") side of the battery terminal. Using our "U" shaped
connecter, simply unscrew the battery terminal connector bolt a few
turns, insert the "U" connector, and re-tighten the bolt.
Step 4 Headlights
Connect the YELLOW wire to the low-beam headlight wire coming
off the back of one of the headlights. Use the charts below as a guide-
line to help determine which wire is the correct low-beam wire. (For
cars with 4 head lamps in a line from right to left, the low beam lamp is
always the outer lamp. When the vehicle has 2 lamps, one on top of
the other, the low beam is always the top lamp).
Rule of Thumb: For most two lamp systems and circular four lamp
systems, the YELLOW wire from the Smart Alarm
wire coming from the middle connector on the back of the (lowbeam)
headlight. On most rectangular four lamp systems, the YELLOW wire
from the Smart Alarm connects to the wire coming from the left con-
®
nector (as seen from inside the hood area) on the back of the (lowbeam)
headlight. If the chart indicates otherwise for your car, go with the
chart! Note: the chart is only a guide and does not cover all makes and years.

Key: LFT=left side of car; RT=right side of car. When different
colors are listed for the two sides of a vehicle, you only need to con-
nect to one of those wires. Where two colors are listed with a slash "/
" seperating them, it is a striped wire (e.g. RED/BLK is a RED wire
with a BLACK stripe).
How To Use The Scotch-Lock Connector
The diagram below shows how to use the blue Scotch-Lock wire con-
nectors to tap into the desired
wires.
1) Slip the connector over the
wire you want to attach to.
2) Push the Smart Alarm's
wire (unstripped) as far as
it will go into the open end
of the connector.
3) Use pliers to press the metal
blade into the wires.
4) Close the plastic cover over
until it clicks.
