Harness 1: White 6-Pin Heavy Gauge Connector
The method that the remote starter uses to start the vehicle is a duplicate of the ignition switch
function. Below, is an explanation of the 3 basic functions of the ignition switch. Since this
installation will require analysis of the ignition switch functions, it is recommended making the
three connections below at the ignition switch harness directly.
Violet 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 person 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 can not 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 “Violet” wire will be
made to the low current start solenoid wire of the ignition switch harness. This wire must have +12 volts when
the ignition switch is turned to the “Start” (crank) position only. This wire must have 0 volts in all other ignition
switch positions.
Failure to connect this wire to the ignition switch side of the neutral safety switch can result in personal
injury and property damage (see Neutral Start Safety Test for further details).
Red Wires (2): (+12 V Power Input)
Remove the two 20A fuses prior to connecting these wires and do not replace them until the harness has been
plugged into the control module. These wires are the source of current for all the circuits the relay harness will
energize. They must be connected to a Hi current source.
Note: Connection of the “Red” wire should be made to the (+) post of the vehicle's battery for best
performance.
Yellow Wire: (Ignition 1 Output)
Connect the “Yellow” wire to the Ignition 1 wire from the ignition switch. The ignition wire should r12
volts when the ignition key is in the “ON” or “RUN” and “START” or “CRANK” position. When the ignition is
turned “OFF”, the ignition wire should receive “0” voltage. The yellow wire must be connected.
