drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and pass the connector end of the LED through the hole and toward  
the control module. Press the LED firmly into place until it is fully seated in the mounting hole.  
THE RANGE EXTENDER ANTENNA:  
The range extender antenna provided with this unit allows routing from below the dash board for maximum  
operating range. Choose a location above the belt line (dashboard) of the vehicle for best reception.  
Special considerations must be made for windshield glass as some newer vehicles utilize a metallic  
shielded window glass that will inhibit or restrict RF reception. In these vehicles, route the exposed, (non  
shielded) end toward a rear window location for best reception. Secure the exposed end with double stick  
tape or instant stick glue. After securing the exposed end of the antenna with the tape or glue, we advise  
also securing a section of the antenna cable to a fixed support. This will prevent the antenna from  
dropping down in case the double stick tape is exposed to extreme heat which may loosen it's gummed  
surface.  
VALET/PROGRAM/MANUAL OVERRIDE SWITCH :  
Select a mounting location that is easily accessible to the operator of the vehicle. It is not necessary to  
conceal the switch however concealment is recommended as it offers a higher level of security. The  
switch can be mounted to the lower dash panel in the drivers area. Inspect behind the chosen location to  
insure that adequate clearance is allowed for the body of the switch, and also that the drill will not  
penetrate any existing factory wiring or fluid lines. Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and mount the  
switch by passing it through the panel from the underside. Secure the switch using the nut, star washer,  
and on/off face plate. It is suggested that the switch be oriented to allow the on position to be up toward  
the driver and the off position to be down or away from the driver. Route the switch's connector toward the  
control module.  
CONTROL SWITCH:  
Select a mounting location known and accessible to the operator of the vehicle. A lower dash panel, kick  
panel, or glove box is desirable. Inspect behind the chosen location to insure that adequate clearance is  
allowed for the body of the switch, and also that the drill will not penetrate any existing factory wiring or  
fluid lines. Drill a 1/4" hole in the desired location and mount the switch by passing it through the panel  
from the underside. Secure the switch using the nut, star washer, and on/off face plate. It is suggested  
that the switch be oriented to allow the on position to be up toward the driver and the off position to be  
down or away from the driver. Route the switch's connector toward the control module. Place the RED  
rubber boot, included in the kit, over the switch handle to differentiate this switch from the valet/program  
switch.  
SHOCK SENSOR:  
Select a centrally located, solid mounting surface for the shock sensor that will allow consistent operation  
from all areas of the vehicle. The selected location must be within 18" of the control module to allow  
routing and connecting of the 4 pin harness. Secure the shock sensor to the chosen location using two  
#8 self taping sheet metal screws. The sensor can also be secured to an existing dash brace using cable  
tie straps. Whichever mounting method is used be sure to allow access to the sensitivity adjustment  
potentiometer for use later in the installation.  
STARTER INHIBIT RELAY:  
Select a mounting location within 12" of the ignition switch's low current start solenoid wire. Secure the  
relay to an existing harness in the chosen location using a cable tie around the relay's wiring harness.  
Caution! Do not wire tie the metal bracket to an existing wiring harness as vibration may cause chaffing  
and shorting damaging the factory wiring. If an existing harness is not available then secure the  
relay's metal mounting tab to an under dash metal brace with a #8 self taping sheet metal  
screw. Wire the relay as per the diagram found later in this manual.

The PRO-9671FT is to be used in vehicles with AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS only! Although this  
combination Alarm/Remote Start unit is a sophisticated system with many advanced features, IT MUST  
NOT be installed into a vehicle with a manual operated transmission. Doing so may result in serious  
personal injury and property damage.  
IMPORTANT!  
DO NOT PLUG THE SIX PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS OR THE MULTI PIN INPUT / OUTPUT HARNESS  
INTO THE CONTROL MODULE UNTIL ALL CONNECTIONS TO THE VEHICLE HAVE BEEN MADE.  
AFTER SELECTING YOUR TARGET WIRES AS DEFINED BELOW, DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE  
BATTERY CABLE FROM THE VEHICLE BATTERY PRIOR TO MAKINGANY CONNECTIONS.  
WIRING THE 6 PIN MAIN POWER HARNESS:  
RED w/ WHITE Trace Wire: + 12 volts Battery 1 Source  
Connect this wire to a + 12 VDC constant source found at the vehicle's ignition switch using the 30 Amp  
fuse and holder provided.  
RED Wire: + 12 Volts Battery 2 Source  
Connect this wire to a + 12 VDC constant source found at the vehicle's ignition switch using the 30 Amp  
fuse and holder provided, but NOT the same vehicle wire as used by the battery 1 source. Most vehicles  
have more than one battery source supplying power to the ignition switch. Separate feed wires must be  
used for the Red and Red/White wires. If your vehicle does not have two battery feed wires at the ignition  
switch then it is possible to connect both wires to the vehicle's battery.  
IMPORTANT!  
It is the responsibility of the installing technician to determine the load factor of the vehicles electrical  
circuits when the vehicle is running and to adequately fuse the two power wires based on that load. If the  
vehicle, running under load with the air conditioned, heater blower motor, and accessories exceed 24  
Amps continuous, we recommend that two fuses be used in combination on each power wire as shown  
below. For additional information see Tech Update issued 9/30/96.  
YELLOW Wire: Starter Output  
Careful consideration for the connection of this wire must be made to prevent the vehicle from  
starting while in gear. Understanding the difference between a mechanical and an electrical  
Neutral Start Switch will allow you to properly identify the circuit and select the correct installation  
method. In addition you will realize why the connection of the safety wire is required for all  
mechanical switch configurations.  
Failure to make this connection properly can result in personal injury and property damage.  
In all installations it is the responsibility of the installing technician to test the remote start unit and assure  
that the vehicle cannot start via RF control in any gear selection other than park or neutral.  
In both mechanical and electrical neutral start switch configurations, the connection of the Yellow wire will  
be made to the low current start solenoid wire of the ignition switch harness. This wire will have +12 volts  
when the ignition switch is turned to the start (crank) position only. This wire will have 0 volts in all other  
ignition switch positions.  
NOTE: This wire must be connected to the vehicle side of the starter cut relay (when used). For the  
electrical neutral switch configuration, this connection must be made between the starter inhibit relay,  
( when used ) and the neutral safety switch as shown in the following diagram.  
Failure to connect this wire to the ignition switch side of the of the neutral safety switch can result in  
personal injury and property damage.  
SEE NEUTRAL START SAFETY TEST FOR FURTHER DETAILS.

Purple Wire: (+) Door Trigger Input  
If the vehicle's door courtesy light switches + 12 volts when the door is opened, (Most Fords and some  
Imports), you must connect this wire to the positive output from one of the vehicle's door pin switches. In  
most cases, the Purple wire will need to be connected to only one door switch no matter how many doors  
the vehicle has as most door lighting circuits are wired in parallel. See below for wiring details.  
Positive Door Switch Wiring Detail  
Dark Green Wire: (-) Instant Trigger Input  
This is the instant on ground trigger input wire. This wire must be connected to the hood and trunk pin  
switches previously installed.  
Note: This wire will be shunted when remote control channel 2 is accessed, (trunk release). This wire will  
remain shunted all the while there is ground present and for 5 seconds after the ground is removed. This  
allows the operator to open the trunk via the remote transmitter without having to first disarm the alarm  
system. See below for wiring detail.  
Hood Pin Switch Detail

Light Blue Wire: Ignition 3 Output  
This wire provides a 300mA ground output that becomes active 3 seconds before the Remote Start Unit  
initializes, and remains grounded while running plus an additional 4 seconds after the Remote Start Unit  
turns off. In all of the applications described below, a relay will be required.  
The Light Blue wire can be used to accommodate the following situations:  
A. Shock Sensor By Pass:  
If there is a Non Plug in Shock Sensor used with the alarm system and it is not shunted during the  
Remote Start activation period, then vibration from the running vehicle can cause the alarm to trigger. In  
this case, connect the Light Blue Wire to terminal #86 of a external relay. Connect terminal# 85 of the  
relay to a fused + 12 volt battery source. Cut the shock sensor trigger wire and connect one end of the  
cut wire to terminal #30 and the other end of the cut wire to terminal #87a. Just before the Remote Start  
unit is activated, the relay contacts will open, preventing the shock sensor's operation until the Remote  
Start unit shuts off.  
B. Ignition 3 Output:  
Some newer vehicles use a third ignition wire which is required to start and keep the vehicle's engine  
running. If this is the case, connect the Light Blue wire to terminal #86 of an external relay. Connect  
terminal # 30 & # 85 to a fused + 12 volt battery source rated for a minimum of 25 Amp. Connect  
terminal # 87 to the third ignition wire in the vehicle.  
C. GM VATS Key Override:  
If the vehicle has the General Motors VATS system installed, you will need to by-pass the system while  
the vehicle is operating under the control of the Remote Start Unit. To Do This;  
1. Measure the resistance of the resistor pellet on the ignition key then select a resistor within 5% of the  
key's value from the resistor pack supplied.  
2. Locate the pair of VATS wires in the vehicle, usually a pair of thin gauge wires running from the  
ignition switch to the VATS control module.  
NOTE: These wires are typically White w/ Black trace and Violet w/ Yellow trace, however in later model  
Cadillacs, they are run through an orange sleeve, and are either both Black, both Yellow, or both White  
wires. Consult the factory service manual for additional information.  
3. Connect the Light Blue Wire from the Remote Start Unit to terminal #86 of an external relay. Connect  
terminal #85 of the relay to a fused + 12 volt battery source.  
4. Cut (#1) wire (as shown), and connect the ignition switch side of the cut wire to terminal #87a of the  
relay. Connect the other side of the (#1) wire to terminal #30.  
5. Connect the previously selected resistor from terminal #87 to the second (#2) wire (as shown).  
NOTE: The above information and following diagram is for the GM VATS system only. For GM PASS  
LOCK System you will require the Audiovox AS-PASS II Module.

Green w/ White trace Wire: Entry Illumination Ground Output  
This wire provides a 30 second ground output (300 mA Max.) whenever the remote is used to disarm the  
alarm or to unlock the doors and provides a continuous pulsed output whenever the alarm is triggered. This  
wire should be connected to an external relay, and wired to the vehicles interior entry lighting whenever the  
optional Interior Illumination circuit is desired. See below for relay wiring details.  
Entry Illumination Detail  
Grey w/ Black Trace Wire: Negative Inhibit Input  
The Grey w/ Black Trace wire provides an instant shutdown for the Remote Start Control Module whenever  
it is grounded. Connect the Grey w/ Black trace wire to the hood pin switch previously installed. This wire  
must be routed through a grommet in the firewall and connected to the hood pin switch. If the pin switch  
is to be used with an alarm system, connect this wire using the diode assembly provided.  
IMPORTANT! This connection is a safety wire and must be connected as shown and tested as specified.  
Failure to do so may result in personal injury or property damage. See detail of wiring in the following  
diagram. This wire may also be used if the vehicle brake light circuit switches ground to the brake lights.  
An isolation diode must be used for ground switched brake light circuits and must be connected to the  
output of the brake switch.

Orange Wire: Ground When Armed Output  
This wire provides a 300 mA ground output when the alarm circuit is armed to control the starter inhibit  
relay. Connect the Orange wire to terminal #86 (orange wire) of the relay provided. Connect terminal #85  
(red wire) of the relay to an ignition wire in the vehicle that is +12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to  
the on and start positions and off when the key is off. Locate and cut the low current start solenoid wire  
found at the vehicles ignition switch harness. This wire will have + 12 volts when the ignition key is moved  
to the start (crank) position and will have 0 volts in all other key positions. Connect one side of the cut wire  
to terminal #87a ( Black wire) of the relay. Connect the other side of the cut wire to terminal #30 (White/  
Black wire) of the relay. See below for detail of wiring, also see Yellow Start wire detail for connection to  
vehicle considerations.  
Starter Inhibit Wiring Detail  
White/Black  
Black  
Brown w/ Black Trace Wire: Positive Inhibit Input  
The Brown w/ Black Trace wire provides an instant shutdown for the Remote Start Control module whenever  
it gets + 12 volts. If the Brake lights switch in the vehicle switches + 12 volts to the brake light circuit,  
connect the Brown w/ Black trace wire to the output side of the brake switch. This will allow the Remote  
Start to shut down if an attempt is made to operate the vehicle without the key while running under the  
control of the Remote Start. In most vehicles, in order to shift into gear, the brake pedal must be  
depressed. The brake input will in turn cause the remote start unit to shut off. See detail in the following  
diagram for wiring the brake light circuit.

Black Wire: Chassis Ground Source  
Connect the Black wire to a known vehicle ground source or to a solid clean metal part of the chassis. Be  
certain to remove any paint or grease and secure this wire with a self taping screw and ring terminal.  
Chassis Ground Connection Detail  
Green w/ Orange Trace Wire: Tachometer Input Signal  
This wire will continually monitor the engine tach rate while the unit is under power of the Remote Start  
module. This wire will be routed to the vehicle ECM tach input or through the firewall into the engine  
compartment and connect to the negative side of the ignition coil. This Remote Start unit learns the tach  
rate of the vehicle and in most cases will operate properly from one multi coil pack regardless of the number  
of cylinders. If the vehicle has a single coil unit for each cylinder, it may be necessary to connect this wire  
to more than one cylinder for proper tach reference. See multi coil wiring detail shown later in this manual  
for additional information.  
Tachometer Input Wiring Detail  
Brown Wire: Negative Door Trigger  
If the vehicle's door courtesy light switches ground when the door is opened, (Most GMs and Imports), you  
must connect this wire to the negative output from one of the vehicle's door pin switches. In most cases the  
Brown wire will need to be connected to only one door switch no matter how many doors the vehicle has as  
most door lighting circuits are wired in parallel. See below for wiring detail.  
Negative Door Switch Wiring Detail

Dark Blue Wire: Delayed 300mA Pulsed Channel 2 Output  
The Dark Blue wire supplies a 300mA ground pulsed output whenever channel two of the receiver is accessed.  
Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button for three seconds will access channel two. This is a low  
current output and must be connected to a relay to supply power to the trunk release or the circuit you wish  
to control. Connect the Dark Blue wire to terminal # 86 of a VF45F11 P&B relay or equivalent. Connect  
terminal # 85 of the relay to a fused + 12 volt source. Connect the common, normally open, and normally  
closed contacts of the relay to perform the selected function of channel 2. See below for relay wiring detail.  
Channel 2 Relay Wiring Detail  
Green w/ Black Trace Wire: 300mA Latched Channel 3 Output  
The Green w/ Black Trace wire supplies a 300 mA switched output whenever channel three of the receiver  
is accessed. Pressing the pre-programmed transmitter button(s) will access channel three and will remain  
active for as long as the transmitter button(s) is held. This is a low current output and must be connected  
to a relay to supply power to the device you intend to control. Connect Green w/ Black Trace wire to  
terminal #86 of a VF45F11 P&B relay or equivalent. Connect terminal #85 of the relay to a fused + 12 volt  
source. Connect the common, normally open, and normally closed contacts of the relay to perform the  
selected function of the channel 3 output.  
WIRING THE 4 PIN AUXILIARY OUTPUT HARNESS  
The auxiliary 4 pin connector provides low current outputs to control various functions in the vehicle during  
different stages of the Remote Start unit's operation. Understanding these outputs and the time in which  
they occur will allow you to determine if they are needed for the particular vehicle you are working on as well  
as how to use them.  
Black w Blue Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output Before Start  
The Black w/ Blue Trace wire will provide a 300 mA pulsed ground output 3 seconds before the remote start  
unit activates. Typical use for this output would be to disarm a factory theft deterrent system to prevent  
false triggering of the factory alarm when the remote start unit engages.  
Black w/ Light Green Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output After Start  
The Black w/ Light Green Trace wire will provide a 300mA pulsed ground output after the vehicle is started  
under control of the remote start unit. Typically this wire will be used to re-lock the vehicle doors if the doors  
unlock automatically when the factory anti-theft system is disarmed.  
Black w/ Red Trace Wire: Pulsed Ground Output After Shutdown  
The Black w/ Red Trace wire will provide a 300 mA pulsed ground output after the remote start unit shuts  
down. This output will occur regardless of whether the circuit times out or is manually terminated. Typically  
this output will be used to re-lock the vehicle doors if the doors unlock automatically when the ignition  
circuit transitions to off.  
Black w/ Yellow Trace Wire: Ground Output During Start (Crank)  
The Black w/ Yellow Trace wire will provide a 300 mA ground output while the starter output of the remote  
start unit is active. This output can be used to activate the Crank Low/Bulb Test wire found in some GM  
vehicles. This wire is also referred to as the ECM wake up wire in some Chrysler vehicles.  
NOTE: The outputs above are low current outputs and must be used with a relay if the circuit's requirement  
is more than 300 mA.

2 Pin Control Switch: (Red Connector)  
The Black & Black w/White Trace wires loaded in the two pin red connector enable the operation of the  
Remote Start unit. When the Black w/ White Trace wire is grounded, the remote start unit is operable.  
When this wire is open from ground, the remote start is disabled. Route the twin lead Black & Black w/  
White Trace wires from the control switch to the remote start unit and plug red two pin connector into the  
mating red two pin connector shell of the control module.  
4 Pin Shock Sensor: (White Connector)  
The Red (+12 volt), Black (ground), Blue (pre-detect) and Green (full trigger when armed) wires loaded into  
the white connector shell are the inputs/outputs of the shock sensor. Route the 4 wire harness from the  
shock sensor to the remote start control unit and plug the 4 pin white connector into the mating 4 pin  
connector shell of the control module. Note: While operating under the control of the remote start unit the  
shock sensor will be shunted (by-passed). Once the remote start shuts down, the shock sensor will be  
re-enabled.  
2 Pin LED Harness: (White Connector)  
The Red & Blue wires loaded into the two pin mini white connector control the anode and cathode of the  
dash mounted LED. Route the twin lead Red and Blue wires from the LED to the remote start control unit  
and plug the two pin connector into the mating white mini connector shell of the control module.  
2 Pin Valet/Program Switch: (Blue Connector)  
The Black & Grey twin lead wires loaded in the two pin blue connector are the ground supply and  
program/valet input of the Remote Start unit. When the Grey wire is grounded, under certain conditions,  
the unit will enter the valet mode. When the Grey wire is sequentially grounded under other conditions,  
the unit will enter the various program modes. Route the twin lead Black and Grey wires from the valet/  
Program switch to the remote start unit and plug the two pin connector into the mating blue connector  
shell of the control module. Refer to the remote programming, feature programming and function pro-  
gramming shown later in this installation guide for operation of the valet/program switch.  
2 Pin Door Lock/Unlock Harness: (White Connector)  
The Red & Green Door Lock/Unlock output wires provide either a pulsed ground or pulsed + 12 volts to  
control the vehicle door lock / unlock circuits. The output of these wires has a maximum switching  
capability of 300mA. Many vehicles today have factory door lock relays which can be connected directly  
to these outputs, however always confirm that the factory relays in your particular vehicle do not exceed  
the rated 300mA output of the units door lock/unlock circuit. Plug the two pin connector of the door lock/  
unlock harness into the mating connector shell of the control module. Determine the door lock circuit of  
the vehicle you are working on and wire according to the diagrams shown.  
3 Wire Ground Switched Door Lock Circuits:  
In this application, the Red wire of the two pin harness provides a ground pulse during the arming se-  
quence, or pulsed ground lock output. Connect the Red wire to the low current ground signal wire from  
the factory door lock switch to the factory door lock relay.  
The Green wire of the two pin harness provides a ground pulse during the disarming sequence, or pulsed  
ground unlock output. Connect the Green wire to the low current ground signal wire from the factory door  
unlock switch to the factory door unlock relay. See Below For Wiring Detail.

TIMED START PROGRAM:  
The Remote Start unit has the ability to start the vehicle automatically at timed intervals. This feature is useful in  
extremely cold climates where starting the engine is the only means to keep the battery charged and fluids  
warm. The operator has the option to have the unit start every 2 or 4 hours for a maximum of 48 hours.  
Factory pre-set is to start at 4 hour intervals. To select 2 or 4 hour automatic start timer:  
1. Start with the Enable switch (Red Handle) in the "On" Position.  
2. Turn the ignition on then off.  
3. Within 10 seconds of the key turning off, cycle the enable switch Off, On, Off, On ( 2 times) to select a 2 hour  
timed start interval. Cycle the enable switch Off, On, Off, On, Off, On, Off, On (4 times) to select a 4 hour timed start  
interval. The lights will flash and the siren will chirp 2X or 4X dependant upon 2 or 4 hour interval setting.  
NOTE: Once selected, 2 or 4, this timer interval will remain in memory until it is manually changed. To change, the  
above sequence will have to be followed.  
TIMED START OPERATION:  
To begin the start timer, within 10 seconds of turning off the ignition switch, activate the RF command to start 2  
times. (Press button two 4 times). The lights will flash and the siren will chirp 4 times. Indicating timed interval  
mode has been initiated. The vehicle will automatically start every 2 or 4 hours as programmed. To cancel  
the timed start mode start the vehicle either by RF or by the ignition key.

To Program The Remote Start Selectable Features:  
1. Start with the valet/program switch in the "Off" position.  
2. Turn the ignition key to the On position.  
3. Flip the valet/program switch On, Off, On, Off, On, then Off.  
4. Immediately turn the ignition key Off then press transmitter button 2 for 1 second.  
5. Immediately turn the ignition key back On.  
6. Flip the valet/program switch On, Off, On, then Off. The siren will emit 2 short and 1 long chirp verifying  
you are in the feature program mode.  
7. Use button 1 on the transmitter to advance to the feature you want to change. EXAMPLE- If you need to  
change selectable feature 3, press and release button 1 on the transmitter 3 times in succession. The  
parking lights will flash, and the siren will chirp 3 times confirming that selected feature 3 can be changed.  
8. Use button 2 on the transmitter to change the selection of the programmable feature. If you are not sure  
what the setting for any feature is, press button 2 one time, the parking lights will flash once or twice  
indicating the features setting.  
NOTE: Once you've entered the program mode DO NOT allow more than 15 seconds to pass between  
steps, or the programming mode will be terminated.  
Programming Tach Rate:  
The PRO-9671FT will learn the tach rate of the vehicle. To learn tach.  
1. Start with the programming switch in the Off position.  
2. Turn the ignition key to the On position.  
3. Flip the valet/program switch On, Off, On, Off, On, then Off.  
4. Immediately turn the ignition key Off.  
5. Flip the valet/program switch On, then start the vehicle using the key.  
6. When the unit senses the tach signal, the parking lights will begin to flash.  
7. Flip the valet/program switch Off, The parking lights will turn on for three seconds to indicate that the  
learned tach signal is stored and the unit is out of the tach learn mode.  
NOTE: If the unit fails to learn tach rate due to an improper tachometer connection or a poor tach source, the  
unit will go into a fail-safe mode. While in this mode, the remote start transmitter will not function and the  
program switch will stop responding. This will be indicated by the LED turning on and off with each operation  
of the program switch. To correct this situation, locate and connect the Green/Orange wire to the proper  
tach signal, disconnect the power wire to the control module, repower the circuit, re-enter and learn the  
proper tach signal.  
Diagnostics:  
Enter selectable feature #7 and turn on as described above.  
NOTE: Diagnostic mode is a temporary mode. Once you have accessed the diagnostic mode, the unit will  
pause for two seconds then begin to flash the last stored shut down code. This code will be displayed three  
times in succession, then the unit will automatically exit the diagnostic on mode.  
The parking lights will flash a number of times indicating the reason for the last remote start shutdown. The  
light flash indications are as follows:  
1 Flash  
10 or 15 minute run timer expired  
Low or no tach signal (RPM)  
Positive or negative inhibit wire activation  
Control switch moved to the off position  
RF shutdown, Remote signal received  
High tach signal (RPM)  
2 Flashes  
3 Flashes

Multi Coil Pack Adaptor: (Optional)  
The multi coil pack adaptor is designed for use with vehicles having multiple ignition coils where a single  
point tach signal is unavailable.  
To use the adaptor, the Green/Black wires must connect to the negative side of the ignition coil(s).  
1. For vehicles utilizing independent coils per cylinder, connect the three Green/Black leads to alternate  
coils. To achieve optimum performance the coil signals must be evenly distributed. This is accom-  
plished by first mapping out the firing order of the engine in groups of as indicated below. Draw a circle  
around any of the columns. The Green/Black wires should be connected to the negative (-) terminal of  
the respective cylinder number which appears in any of the circles.  
2. For vehicles utilizing 2 cylinder firing per coil pack, connect Green/Black to the tach side of each coil  
pack. For 8 cylinder, four coil systems, connect to any of the three coils.  
3. Connect the Yellow wire to a +12 volt ignition 1 source. This wire will have +12 volts with the ignition in  
the on and start position and have 0 volts with the ignition in the off position.  
4. Connect the Green wire to the (Green) or (Orange/Green) tach input of the Audiovox remote start unit.

TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION:  
CAUTION!! The following procedure must be performed after the installation of an Audiovox Remote Start  
Device. It is the responsibility of the installing technician to complete these tests. Failure to test the unit  
in the following manner may result in personal injury, property damage, or both.  
HOOD PIN SAFETY SHUT DOWN:  
The intention of the hood pin safety shut down is to prevent the Remote Start unit from being activated while  
a mechanic or vehicle owner is performing normal routine vehicle maintenance.  
To test the integrity of this circuit:  
1. With the drivers window in the down position, start the vehicle using the RF transmitter.  
2. Reach inside the car and pull the hood release.  
3. Raise the hood and confirm that the remote start unit shuts down.  
If the unit fails this test, recheck your pin switch connection to the Gray/Black wire of the Audiovox Remote  
Start Unit.  
DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE  
OPERATION OF THE HOOD PIN SAFETY SHUT DOWN FEATURE.  
MANUAL SHUT DOWN / ENABLE CIRCUIT:  
The intent of the manual shut down / enable circuit is to allow the vehicle operator to prevent operation of the  
Remote Start Unit regardless of the RF transmitter operation.  
To test the integrity of the manual shut down / enable circuit:  
1. Place the control switch in the on (Closed To Ground) position.  
2. Start the vehicle using the RF transmitter.  
3. The vehicle should start and run under the control of the remote start unit.  
4. Move the switch to the off (Open From Ground) position, the vehicle should shut off.  
If the unit fails this test, recheck your enable switch connection to the Ground and the Black/White wire of  
the Audiovox Remote Start Unit. If you have a plug in enable switch, check that the two pin connector is  
firmly seated in the mating connector on the control module.  
DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE  
OPERATION OF THE MANUAL SHUT DOWN / ENABLE FEATURE.  
NEUTRAL START SAFETY TEST:  
The intent of the neutral start switch is to prevent the vehicle from starting while the gear selector is in any  
position other than Park, or Neutral. When installing a Remote Start Device, it is imperative that the Yellow  
Starter wire be connected to the ignition switch side of the Neutral Start Switch. Consideration for the  
placement of a starter inhibit relay is important as well, and should be connected to the ignition switch side  
of the Yellow Start Wire.  
To test the integrity of the Neutral Start Safety Circuit:  
1. Set the vehicle parking brake.  
2. Block the drive wheels to prevent vehicle movement.  
3. Temporarily disconnect the Brown/Black positive shut down wire from the vehicle's brake switch.  
4. Sitting in the vehicle, start the engine using the vehicle's ignition key.  
5. Step on the brake pedal and shift the gear selector into reverse.  
6. Allow the transmission to shift. When you feel the engine pull, do not move the gear selector just turn  
the ignition switch off. DO NOT attempt to remove the key.  
7. Keeping the brake pedal depressed, activate the RF transmitter in an attempt to start the vehicle. The  
car should not start.  
8. Repeat the above test this time move the gear selector to the drive position. If the unit attempts to start,  
failing this test, recheck your Yellow Wire's connection. This wire must be connected to the ignition  
switch side of the Neutral Start Switch. If the vehicle you are working on does not have an Electrical  
Neutral Safety Switch, it will be necessary to reconfigure the Remote Starts Wiring to accommodate  
this vehicle. The information concerning the Mechanical Neutral Safety Switch provided below will help  
you to determine if the vehicle you are working on has this type of safety switch and will provide alternate  
wiring methods to accommodate this situation.  
18  
 
CAUTION!  
REMEMBER TO RECONNECT THE BROWN/BLACK WIRE TEMPORARILY  
DISCONNECTED IN STEP 3  
DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE OPERATION  
OF THE NEUTRAL SAFETY START FEATURE.  
MECHANICAL NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH CONSIDERATIONS:  
Mechanical neutral safety switch configurations differ slightly in that they do not offer the same level of  
safety when installing a remote start device. Often when the ignition switch is turned off while the gear  
selector is in any position other than park or neutral, the mechanical function will not allow the key to be  
turned to the start position or be removed from the ignition cylinder. This configuration prevents mechani-  
cal operation while the vehicle is in gear but offers no consideration for electrical operation. Because of  
this potential problem, this installation requires the additional connection of a safety wire from the remote  
start device to the vehicle Park/Neutral ECM Input or the vehicle key in sensor. This connection will  
prevent remote start operation if the key is left in the ignition switch regardless of the gear selectors  
position.  
PARK / NEUTRAL ECM INPUT:  
The Park / Neutral ECM input is the preferred method of installation. This not only maintains the integrity  
of the factory circuit, it is also the easiest to install, providing the vehicle you are working on has this ECM  
input.  
The installation required for this application (shown below), indicates the slight reconfiguration of the  
control switch wiring and the addition of a 4000 series diode. Shown is a typical GM Park/Neutral ECM  
input circuit. To connect the Audiovox remote start unit to the GM Park / Neutral ECM input:  
1. Locate the Orange / Black reference wire in the" C2" connector found at the ECM in GM B Body  
vehicles or, locate the equivalent reference wire in the vehicle you are installing theAudiovox Remote  
Start Unit in.  
2. Connect the Cathode, (Striped) end, of a 4000 series diode to this reference wire.  
3. Connect the Anode, (Non Striped) end, of the diode to one side of the Remote Starts enable switch.  
4. Connect the other side of the enable switch to the Black/White enable input wire of the Remote Start  
unit.  
The reference diagram below shows a typical GM B Body ECM reference wire and how it is to be con-  
nected to the Remote Start Unit.  
19  
 
KEY IN SENSOR CIRCUITS:  
If the vehicle you are working on does not have or you cannot locate the ECM reference wire, there are two  
alternatives available. Although not preferred, the vehicle Key In Sensor may be reconfigured to allow a  
margin of safety and will prevent the vehicle with a Mechanical Neutral Start Switch from starting in gear.  
AUDIOVOX ADVISES THAT YOU MAINTAIN THE FACTORY CIRCUIT WHENEVER POSSIBLE. The  
following two circuits may be used only if the above circuit is not available.  
NOTE: When completing an installation using either of the following key in sensor circuits, if the operator  
inserts the ignition key while the vehicle is running under the control of the Remote Start, the vehicle will  
shut down. This must be explained to the operator as it is in contrast to the normal operation of a vehicle  
utilizing an electrical neutral start switch and is inconsistent with the operators manual.  
Additional information concerning Key In Sensor methods 1 & 2 are listed below and should be reviewed  
before considering either alternative.  
Method 1 will allow the safety required for the remote start unit and prevent the vehicle from starting while  
in any gear other than Park or Neutral while the key is in the ignition cylinder however, if the key is left in  
the ignition switch and the door is left opened, the added relay will be energized causing a 150mA drain on  
the battery.  
Method 2 will allow the safety required for the remote start unit and prevent the vehicle from starting while  
in any gear other than Park or Neutral while the key is in the ignition cylinder however, the original factory  
key in chime module will not alert the owner that the key has been left in the ignition switch. In addition,  
this may also effect other warning tones such as the light on reminder.  
These situations should be carefully considered before altering the vehicle's wiring and must be fully  
explained to the consumer.
