CT-3400 TW Installation Guide P.23
The next step is to pre-wire the module. This Is done on your work bench, and not in the vehicle.
Connect any external modules and relays that may be needed for you install. Tape or tie- strap
wires that are going to be routed to the same areas of the vehicle. This will keep things neat
when the module is in the vehicle. The fuses on the power wires should be removed during the
pre-wire stage. The fuses will not be put back in until the powering stage of the install.
With the pre wire finished the module can be brought in to the vehicle. Before the module is
mounted, connect the antenna, the valet switch, shock sensor (if applicable) and L.E.D. to the
module. With everything connected to the module, it can now be mounted in the vehicle. Use
tie-straps to secure it to the vehicle. Make sure the module and harnessing do not interfere with
any moving parts, and do not obstruct access to diagnostic ports, or fuse boxes. It should be up
in the dash high enough that it won't get kicked by accident.
With module secured, route the wires to the previously stripped wires the correspond to ( leave
the engine compartment wires for last). Tie strap them up as you go, so they do not interfere
with any thing else.
When all of the passenger compartment wires run to their locations, you can now route the
engine compartment wires through the fire wall.
With the engine compartment wires out the way, you can begin making the connections in the
passenger compartment. Strip about an inch of wire past where the connection is going to be
made. This extra bit wire is wrapped around the exposed OEM wire to secure in place while you
are soldering.
When all of the wires have been connected, solder the connections. When the solder has
cooled, the connections are then individually taped up, to isolate them.
Return to the engine bay and route the start module wires to their corresponding connections.
Solder the engine compartment wire once the connections are made. When the solder has
cooled, the connections are then individually taped up, to isolate them.
Use your DMM to verify your ground location is good, before Grounding the module.
The last step before programming is to power the module up. Replace the power fuses on the
power wire fuse holders. The module will flash the Park lights twice confirming the powering up.
If you are installing an Alarm / Starter combo module: The siren will be sounding at this point.
Place the module into Valet mode to silence the siren. Take the module out of valet mode to
continue the programming. (Note: the module default programming is passive arming, after
exiting valet mode, the alarm will start the count down for passive arming. You have 30 sec. to
begin the Remote control programming procedure, before the module re-arms)
- Program the Remote control
- Program the Tach Signal
- Change the programming of the options, if necessary
- Test the module's operations
- If all of the testing is successful the install is complete, and the vehicle can be put back together.
