remote start harness (H2) wire connection guide
This output is programmable. If programmed for status output, the wire will supply a 200 mA ground output at
all times the remote start is operating. If programmed for factory security rearm, the wire will supply a 200 mA
ground pulse whenever the remote start times out or is shut down using the transmitter.
This output provides 200mA as soon as the remote starter is activated. It is used to power a relay to energize a
third ignition or accessory wire as shown below. This output is capable of driving two relays if necessary.
This wire MUST be connected to the hood pinswitch. This input will disable or shut down the remote start when
the hood is opened.
This wire MUST be connected to the vehicle's brake light wire. This is the wire that shows (+) 12V when the brake
pedal is depressed. The remote start will be disabled or shut down any time the brake pedal is depressed.
This input provides the module with information about the engine's revolutions per minute (RPMs). It can be
connected to the negative side of the coil in vehicles with conventional coils. In multi-coil and high energy igni-
tion systems locating a proper signal may be more difficult. (See
Finding the Wires You Need
section of this guide
for finding the tachometer wire.) Once connected, you must teach the system the tach signal. (See
Tach Learning
section of this guide.)
