Wiring Connections
The following sections detail connections for each wire, of
each system’s wiring harnesses. Always insure that the
Black ground wire is grounded, and that the secondary
wiring harness is plugged in, before connecting power
circuits to the control module. The best installation proce-
dure is to make all connections, and only then plug the
individual wiring harnesses into the system control module.

Main Wiring Harness
(5-Wire Connector)
Red Wire - (Constant Power Input):
The Red wire's function is to
supply Constant Positive 12 Volts for security system's operation. When 12 Volts
is first applied to the Red wire, the system will revert to the state in which it was in
when power was taken away. If the vehicle to be serviced, especially if it involves
the battery, the system should be placed in Valet Mode. This will prevent the system
from being activated if the battery is disconnected and reconnected. The Red wire
also supplies 12 Volt Positive to the module's internal relay for flashing the parking
lights.
CONNECTION:
Connect the Red wire to a Constant Positive 12 Volt source.
This source should have Positive 12 Volts with at least a 15 Amp capacity at all times
and in all ignition key positions. Connection locations can be at the supply wire at
Black Wire - (Ground):
The Black wire provides Negative ground for
the system; proper connection of this wire is very important.
CONNECTION:
Using the correctly sized crimp-on ring terminal, connect the
Black wire to the metal frame of the vehicle, preferably using an existing machine-
threaded fastener. Make sure that the ring terminal attached to the Black wire has
contact with bright, clean metal. If necessary, scrape any paint, rust or grease away
from the connection point until the metal is bright and clean. If the control module
has an insufficient ground connection, the security system can find partial ground
through the wires that are connected to other circuits, and function, but not
correctly. As the system can partially operate, a bad ground wire connection would
not likely be suspected, and in many cases a poor ground is difficult to diagnose.
Options:
Panic
(

“disarm/unlock” button to program
)
4th Channel
(
press “
II
” button to program
)
5th Channel
(
press
“
III
” button to program
)
This feature changes how the controller’s or transmitter’s “
III
” button operates.
Normal operation, or the default setting, has the “
III
” button operate the Panic
feature. This feature allows changing it to instead operate the 3rd channel or either
of the two other optional channel outputs. Panic can still be operated, by the
alternative methods of pressing either the “arm/lock” and “disarm/unlock” button
for 3 seconds.

.8 Second Lock & Unlock Output

This single feature gives the installer several needed options, to match the security
system’s doorlocking outputs to suite different vehicle requirements.
•
The first setting (programmed by the “arm/lock” button) has the system
produce both the lock and unlock outputs as .8 second in duration. This is the
most common form of output needed, which interfaces most vehicles.
•
The second setting (programmed by the “disarm/unlock” button) changes the
lock and unlock outputs to be a longer 3 second pulse output. This is for certain
vehicles which require a longer output pulse from the system’s control unit;
typically cars having vacuum pump systems, although the longer setting is also
more suitable in some newer vehicles.
•
Some newer vehicles require a double pulse output to remotely unlock the doors
and/or to disarm a factory-equipped security system, which is what the Double
Pulse Unlock setting provides (it is programmed by the “
II
” button ). The lock
output pulse, in this setting, is .8 second.
•
The Total Closure Lock Output (programmed by the “
III
” button) may be used
with vehicles which are originally equipped with the total-closure feature.
Typically, a total closure feature is when locking the vehicle’s doors if the key
in the door is held to “lock” for a period of time the vehicle will close all
windows and the sunroof, in addition to locking the doors.
Selecting this feature setting changes the system’s door lock output pulse from
a .8 second to as long as a 28 second duration output. The unlock output is 3
seconds in this setting.
Note:
When this feature is turned on, during the 28 second period after arm-
ing the system, the lock output can be stopped on demand by the user by
