WIRING CONNECTIONS
Important! This connection is a safety wire
and must be connected 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.
H5/2 BROWN/RED Wire (+) (Positive Safety Shut Down For Brake)
This wire provides an instant shutdown for
the remote start, whenever it receives
+12volts . If the brake lights switch in the
vehicle switches +12 volts to the brake light circuit,
connect this 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 gear, the brake pedal must be depressed. The brake input will
in turn cause the remote start unit to shut off. (See diagram.)
Manual Transmission: When installing on a manual transmission , you also
need to connect the BROWN / RED wire into the handbrake switch. An
isolation diode must be used for handbrake switched light circuits and brake
light circuit. Most handbrake wires will show +12V at rest when the ignition
is on and ground when you set the handbrake. however, if the handbrake
wire shows 0V while the handbrake is at rest, you will need to add a relay
as illustrated in the diagram below.
