Passenger Compartment Connections
Control Unit and Extended Range Receiver
The IntelliGuard 8000 con trol unit must be in stalled in side the ve hi cle. Un der no cir cum stances should the unit
be in stalled un der the hood or other simi larly hos tile en vi ron ment.
1. Select an area behind the dash to mount the control unit using the supplied wire tires, but do not permanently affix it until all
wiring and testing is complete.
2. Plug the extended range receiver in to the control unit. Mount the extended range receiver away from the control unit and run
the antenna either up the window pillar and affix it to the windshield, or under the dash, away from metal. The position and
location of the receiver will effect remote control range. Do not fold the excess cable or antenna wire. Do not make hard, sharp
bends.
Door Trigger/Interior Light Supply
Please refer to the Door Trigger/Interior Light Supply section in this binder for information on polarity testing and connections.
Central Door Locking System
Please refer to the Door Locks section in this binder for information on circuit types and connections.
LED Status Indicator
Select a prominent location on the dash or console visible through all windows. Discuss placement with the owner.
1. Verify there is adequate space to accommodate the LED, then drill a 5/16” (8mm) hole and route the wires through it.
2. Mate the LED connectors to the VIOLET and BLACK wire connectors as shown in the diagram on page 3.
3. Press the LED into place.
PlainView 2 Coded Valet/Programming Switch
1. Discuss placement of the switch with the vehicle owner and avoid placing the switch where it can be pressed accidentally.
2. Verify there is adequate space behind the selected location to accommodate the switch.
3. Drill a 5/16” (8mm) mounting hole, then insert the wires through the hole.
4. Mate the switch’s locking connectors to the WHITE and BLACK locking connector.
5. Remove the adhesive backing and press the switch into place.
Remotely Adjustable Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor
This efficient new-generation proprietary radar sensor is immune to the wind and temperature variations that cause ultrasonic
sensors to false alarm. The sensor must be mounted onto a metal surface and face outward into the passenger compartment. It should
be positioned as close as possible to the center of the passenger compartment. Suggested mounting locations include within the
centre console, behind the dash, under the carpeting of the central hump or even in the headlining. When selecting a location, keep
in mind that metal as well as metallic paint, metallic-colored plastic and metal-laced window tint material will interfere with the
radar field. Be certain not to mount the sensor under a location where the vehicle owner may store coins, CDs or cassettes
(iron-oxide tape). The radar waves of the sensor
will pass through nonmetallic materials such as plastic, fabric and carpet.
1. Temporarily affix the sensor where it will be mounted, but do not yet permanently mount it until after adjusting and testing
sensitivity (the sensor may need to be relocated, so do not permanently secure it until it has been thoroughly tested).
2. Join the Proximity Sensor to the connector with the BLACK, WHITE/BLUE and RED wires.
Trunk Trigger
Vehicles with a ground-switching trunk light will interface directly with the IntelliGuard 8000 (on positive switching vehicles, use a relay to
invert polarity). The switch may be located in or near the trunk latch or at the trunk light. If a switch cannot be located, you must add a pin
switch in a location away from water channels.
NOTE: If the ve hi cle has a dash board trunk ajar in di ca tor, in stall a 1- amp di ode be tween the light and switch
with the di ode band point ing to ward the switch.
1. Connect the GRAY/YELLOW wire to the trunk switch (between the diode and switch if you added a diode).
