DRIVER ALERT SYSTEMS - AUDIBLE OR
VIBRATION
Kits will either contain a speaker-based alert system, or use
vibrating seat motors in the driver's seat to provide feedback.
AUDIBLE ALERT SYSTEM
The standard location to install the speakers is above and/
or close behind, the head of the driver (and passenger).
Check that the location selected has both room behind the
panel forthe speakers tot, and in frontfor the speaker
grills. A 3¼ inch hole saw can be used to cut the holes for
the speakers. Select the correct set of speaker wires and
pull each pair of wires to the respective side, through the
hole into the cab.
Harness Speaker Wire Color Where Used
Brown / Brown and White Left (Driver Side)
Dark Blue / Dark Blue and White Right (Passenger Side)
Use the terminals supplied, or use solder, to connect the
speakers to the harness. Install the u-nuts at the sides of
the holes cut. With the speaker and grill aligned, install the
screws supplied. See the speaker image in Figure 9.
When the installation is complete, at vehicle start-up, the
speakerswill"chirp"insequence(leftthenright)toconrm
that they are functioning.
VIBRATING SEAT MOTOR ALERT SYSTEM
See Figure 9 (NOTE: The exact kit components may vary
from the items shown.)
Instead of speakers, selected kits use vibrating seat motors
to signal to the driver. For these kits, route the pink and
brownharnesswirestotheooratthebackoftheseat.The
red wire that comes already installed to the smaller section
of the connector needs to be run back to the ignition power
(see the Ignition, Ground, and Battery Connections section.)
Remove the bottom seat cushion from the driver's seat and
take the cover off to reveal the foam. The motors will be
installed so that they are under the driver's thighs. Plan
the locations and then cut the foam as shown in Figure 9,
including a center pocket for the vibrating seat motor
assembly.Asshown,leaveaapoffoamtocoverthemotor.
Run the wires from the motors to the back of the seat by
cutting a slit part-way into the foam and routing the wires
through it.
A connector with two detachable halves is used to join the
motor harnesses and the wiring from the system and ignition.
Before cutting any excess from the wires, plan the location
ofthe connector,making surethat therewill besufcient
slack to allow the seat to move freely through its full range of
motion. Verify also that the wiring will not be pinched when
the seat is moved.
