To do so, simply unscrew the battery terminal connector nut and then slip the eyelet over the bolt and retighten the nut. The diagram below shows how to use the blue Scotch-Lock wire connectors to tap into the desired wires. This example is for the parking light connection.
Step 5 - Violet Starter Kill Wire Step 6 - Coaxial Antenna Wire The VIOLET wire is a transistor ground output that is active whenever the system has been armed by the transmitter. This output is used to engage a starter kill relay (optional and not included with this alarm) to prevent the vehicle from starting whenever the alarm system is armed.
Step 9 - Adjusting Shock Sensitivity Step 10 - Choosing A Siren Tone You can program the shock sensitivity level of your Smart Alarm® to maximize sensitivity while reducing false alarms. You can personalize your alarm's sound by selecting one of eight different siren sounds.
Step 11 - Trying Out the Alarm Now everything is complete and it is time to try out the system. • Press button #3 (yellow) and the headlights should come on.
