INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE SENSOR CABLES
1.
Route the cables into the trunk panels of the vehicle either by drilling and hole or using a
pre-existing rubber grommet. If you have the drill a hole, make sure to seal the hole once
the installation is complete to prevent leaks and keep out any other weather elements.
If
installing on a truck, route the cables underneath the bed of the truck. Please make sure
to avoid any moving parts like the suspension or axels. You may be able to locate a
factory wire harness that you can zip-tie the cables to and route them the whole length of
the truck following the factory wire harness.
2.
Zip-tie the sensor cables together the run them down the length of the vehicle.
(See
FIGURE 5)
NOTE:
Try to avoid running the sensor cables next to any high-current power wires or
electrical devices in the vehicle as this may cause false sensor warnings during operation of
the system.
INSTALLING THE CONTROL MODULE
1.
Mount the control module under the vehicle dash board or behind the trunk panels in the
rear of the car somewhere out of the way. There are two methods of installing the control
module. One way is by using the provided metal mounting bracket which snaps into the
side of the any one of the 3 claps on the side of the module.
(See FIGURE 6)
The other
method is to use the supplied 3M double side tape and stick the module down to the
surface.
(See FIGURE 7)
If using the 3M tape method, make sure to clean any dust or
dirt from the mounting surface before applying the tape.
NOTE:
Some installers prefer to mount the control module in the trunk panels instead of
underneath the dash board. This is okay to do, but please make sure that the module is clear
of any moisture or excessive vibration in the trunk. If installing the module under the dash,
please make sure to keep it clear of any moving parts such as the steering column or pedals.
This way you can avoid getting the sensor and buzzer cables caught or pinched after the
installation is complete.
2.
Connect the sensor cables into the control module. The sensor ports on the module are
labeled A, B, C and D which corresponds to the sensors which are also marked A, B, C
and D. Please make sure to plug in the correct sensor to the corresponding sensor port.
INSTALLING THE AUDIBLE BUZZER
1.
Use the provided 3M double sided tape to mount the audible buzzer in the vehicle.
(See
FIGURE 8)
You can mount the buzzer almost anywhere (A Pillar, rear view mirror, under
the dash board, etc). Route the cable from the buzzer’s mounting location and plug it into
the control module
2.
There is a volume adjustment on the side of the buzzer that allows you to turn the sound
to a higher or lower tone or you can also turn it completely off.
(See FIGURE 9)
The OFF
setting is normally used if you have a trailer hooked up to the vehicle and don’t want the
buzzer to sound constantly when the vehicle is in reverse.
