WIRING Keep wiring away from moving engine parts, exhaust pipes and high-tension cable. Be sure to tape wires that pass through holes on the firewall to prevent fraying. CAUTION: Do not connect the wire harness to the control module until all wiring to vehicle is complete. H1: 6 PIN HEAVY GAUGE WIRING CONNECTIONS: Remember that what the system does to start a vehicle is to duplicate the functions of the ignition key switch! Below, we will explain the three basic functions of the ignition switch.
Red Wire (2) — +12V Power Input Remove the two 20A fuses prior to connecting these wires and do not replace them until the satellite has been plugged into the control module. These wires are the source of current for all the circuits the relay satellite will energize. They must be connected to a high current source. Since the factory supplies (+) 12V to the key switch that is used to operate the motor, it is recommended that these wires be connected there.
serial data modules and is not included with the RS-900. This two-way data port has been designed for use with all C I 3 compatible components. C I 3 Telematics system is available at any authorized Autopage dealer. This port will only operate correctly with Autopage C3 I-Datalink Modules . H3. 2 PIN WHITE CONNECTOR (THE LED STATUS INDICATOR): The led indicator status should be mounted in a highly visible area such as top of the dashboard, on top of the shifter console or on the dashboard face.
H7. 4-PIN BLACK CONNECTOR. – TWO-WAY TRANSCEIVER/ANTENNA MODULE The Two-way transceiver/antenna mounting location should be the upper left or lower left corner of driver’s windshield. For optimum range we suggest that the antenna be mounted Antenna tip facing down. Warning! Do not mount in such a manner that it obstructs the driver’s view. - Remove the protective tape backing. - Carefully align the two-way transceiver/antenna and apply to windshield.
H6: 22 PIN WIRE CONNECTORS: H6/1 BROWN/BLACK WIRE: 200 mA (-) Ground Output When Running. This wire provides a negative output during the remote start process. It can be used to operate by-pass modules that may be required in your installation. This wire will provide ground once the remote start process has been initiated and will remain grounded while the engine is running H6/2 GRAY/BLACK WIRE: 200 mA (-) Second Starter Output. This line can be used if a second starter line is needed.
This output is for a Key Sense wire by -pass that some Chrysler and Toyota vehicles need to activate remote start. This wire comes on when remote start is activated and stays on for 20 seconds. H6/4 White / Bule wire – (-) Instant Start & Turn Off Input – This wires activates and turns off the remote starter each time it sees a momentary ground signal. Normally used for testing during in stallation or when activating the module from an after-market system.
When the BLACK/WHITE wire is grounded, the remote start unit is operable. When this wire is open from ground, the remote start is disabled. 1. The optional “remote start toggle switch” can be added on to temporarily disable the Remote Start Device, it can prevent the vehicle from being remote started accidentally. This feature is useful if the vehicle is being serviced or stored in an enclosed area. To disable the remote start, move the optional remote start enable toggle switch to the OFF position.
instance, this timer output may be used to turn on the headlight with the remote control. Also on certain BMW, Mercedes Benz, Jaguar and Volkswagen cars, you can use this unique timed output to allow remote closure of all power window and sunroof without the need for an external module! H6/12 Blue / Black wire – (-) 200mA Accessory 2 Output – This wire provides a 200mA (-) ground output.
H6/14 Yellow wire – (-) 200mA Ignition 3 Output – This wire provides a 200mA (-) ground output that becomes active 4 seconds before the remote start unit initialize, and remains grounded while running. Ignition 3 output: + 12 V Constant Some newer vehicles use a third Fused 25A Capable 87 ignition wire which is required to start Yellow Wire and keep the vehicle’s engine 87a 86 85 running.
Matching Resistor VAT wire (#1) 87 YELLOW wire 85 87a 86 To + 12 V VAT wire (#2) 30 Ignition Switch VATS control Module H6/15 Green wire – Negative Door Switch Sensing Input (Zone 3) – This wire is the ground trigger input wire for negative door pin switch. This wire is connection for "grounding" type factory door pins locate the "common wire" that connects the door pin switches. Make the connection of the GREEN Wire here.
The WHITE/BLACK wire provides an instant shutdown for the remote start, Hood Pin Switch whenever it is grounded. Connect the wire to the hood pin switch previously installed. This wire must be routed To: Alarm instant though a grommet in the firewall and To: White/Black Wire / Negative safety trigger Blue wire connected to the hood pin switch. If the pin switch is to be used with an Diode Diode alarm system, connect this wire with diode.

TROUBLE SHOOTING There are 5 reasons why the remote start button will not respond from the transmitter. 1. The Black/White Neutral Safety wire is not grounded. Must be grounded to start. 2. Hood Pin switch White/Black wire has a ground present. Must not show ground to start. 3. Brake pedal switch White/Violet has 12 volt present. Must not show 12 volt to start. 4. The system is in Valet mode. 5. The remote start feature programming has not been programmed to start the vehicle.
Failure to test the unit in the following manner may result in personal injury, property damage, or both. 1. Test the BRAKE shutdown circuit: With the vehicle in park (P), start the vehicle using the remote transmitter. Once the engine is running, press the brake pedal. The vehicle should shut down immediately. If the vehicle continues to run, check the brake circuit WHITE/ VIOLET wire (H6/18) connection. 2.
installing the Remote Start Unit in. Connect the BLACK/WHITE Neutral Safety Switch wire (H6/8) to this reference wire. NOTE: If the optional remote starts enable toggle switch is installed, connect the one side the enable switch to this reference wire and connect the other side of the enable switch to the BLACK/WHITE Neutral Safety Switch wire (H6/8) of the Remote Start unit.
A. Locate the control wire that connects the driver’s door pin switch to the key in sensor switch. B. Cut this wire and connect the ignition cylinder side to chassis ground. C. Locate the key in sensor switch wire that connects the chime module to the ignition cylinder. D. Cut this wire and connect the ignition cylinder side to terminal 30 of a P&B VF45F11 or equivalent relay. E.
