Before you begin installation
• Read the INSTRUCTIONS!
• Always use a multi-meter when verifying vehicle
wiring.
• Before mounting, verify the customer’s desired
location for the valet switch and LED.
• Always look before drilling. Make sure you will
not damage vehicle hoses, electrical looms or
exterior body panels.
Installation Notes
• Make all wiring connections to the vehicle
before connecting the harness to the main unit.
• Mount the main unit in a secure area, away from
vehicle computers and heating/air conditioning
ducts.The location should be convenient for your
installation, but hidden from thieves. Mount the
unit as far away from metal objects as possible to
increase the range of the remote transmitters. Do
not install the main unit in the engine
compartment.
• When running the harness wires through the
vehicle, be careful to run them where they cannot
be damaged or shorted. Keep them away from any
moving parts or areas of high heat. Use rubber or
plastic grommets to protect the harness wires
where they pass through holes in metal panels.
• Secure the shock sensor to the steering
column, thick wire harness or a dash brace, using
a wire tie. Make sure that the adjustment screw is
accessible for later testing and adjustment.
