when testing the system
Standard installation parts you will need include wire, wire ties, wire crimp connectors or solder, and
electrical insulating tape. Installation of aftermarket automotive electronics also often requires access to
special parts. It is a good idea to have a source for these common installation parts.
2 Inspect the vehicle and plan your work
k
CHECK THE BATTERY
Test the battery voltage to make sure it’s fully charged and inspect battery terminals for tightness and any
corrosion. This only takes seconds and can save hours of troubleshooting later.
DECIDE ON A LOCATION FOR THE INTERFACE UNIT
Location of the interface unit varies by vehicle, but is typically secured underneath a driver or passenger
seat out of sight and unobstructed by moving parts and passengers.
