7. Carefully 

pull 

the

protective  backing  tabs
out  from  under  the
FastTrax 

housing.

Make  sure  that  the
housing’s position is not
disturbed  during  this
process.

8. With 

all 

of 

the

protective 

backing

strips  removed,  press
down  firmly  along  the
edges of the housing to
promote adhesion.

WARNING! The vehicle should not be driven for a minimum of 24 hours after 
installation. The adhesive used in this procedure must remain at 

65°F 

(minimum) 

for 24 hours

 after installation. Caution should be used if the vehicle must be driven 

between 24 and 72 hours after installation. The adhesive should be fully bonded 
after 72 hours. 

Mounting the FastTrax™ Control Head...

1. Locate a suitable mounting location for the control head. Be sure that the control head fits

properly and does not interfere with any dashboard components.

WARNING!

 If the vehicle is equipped with air bags, do not mount the control head 

within the “air bag deployment zone(s)” indicated in the vehicle owner’s manual. Fail-
ure to heed this warning could impair the air bag’s ability to function properly which 
could, in the event of deployment, result in serious injury or death! 

2. Position the control head on the proposed mounting location. Using a pencil or other suitable

tool, scribe the mounting surface where the holes are to be drilled.

CAUTION!

 As mounting the control head will require drilling, it is absolutely necessary 

to make sure that no vehicle components could be damaged by the mounting process. 
Check both sides of the mounting surface before starting and if damage is possible, 
select a different mounting location.

3. Drill the 2 mounting screw holes.
4. Position  the  control  head  onto  the  mounting

surface.  Using  the  provided  sheet  metal  screws,
secure the control head to the mounting surface.

5. Route  the  9-conductor  control  harness  and  the

modular Diagnostix cable from the control head to
the  power  supply.  These  cables  may  be  plugged
into the control head, but do not plug them into the
power supply at this time.

6. Locate the AMP 9-conductor pin housing. Cut and

remove  the  locking  tabs  from  this  housing  (see
illustration).

7. Using  this  illustration,  insert  the  pinned  wires  on

the control harness into their proper location in the
pin housing and plug this cable into its port on the
power supply.
