LOCATING & MAKING CONNECTIONS
find a wire that shows (-) negative or ground when the
parking lights are on, then switch the controller to
the headlight position and test this same wire. It
should have (-) negative or ground in the parking light
position and the headlight position. Turn the light
switch off, the (-) negative or ground should then turn
off also. This is the correct wire. Connect the YELLOW
wire from Part #775 to this wire. Connect the BROWN
wire from the 4-pin harness to the WHITE wire on Part
#775 connect the BLACK wire to 12V constant fused at
20 amps and connect the BLUE wire from Part #775 to
ground. See “negative” diagram.
BRAKE INPUT (BLUE WITH BLACK STRIPE)
The brake wire is located on the switch near and above
the brake pedal, if you cannot locate this wire at the
brake switch, you will then need to locate a wire at
the rear window brake light or at the brake light system
in the rear of the vehicle. The correct wire will show
+12V only when the brake is pressed. Connect the BLUE
WITH BLACK STRIPE from the 9-pin harness to this wire.
ANTENNA (YELLOW)
For best results, run the antenna (YELLOW WITH BLACK
TIP in the 9-pin harness) as straight as possible. Do
not place the antenna next to any metal parts or the
vehicle’s main computer control.
Probe the wire(s) coming from
your headlamp switch. Find a
wire that will show +12V only
when the parking lights are
ON, then switch the controller
to the headlight position and
test the same wire. It should
have power in the parking light
position and the headlight
position. Turn the light switch
OFF, the +12v should then turn
OFF also. This is the correct
wire. Connect the YELLOW wire
from Part #775 to this wire.
Connect the BROWN wire from
the 9-pin harness to the WHITE
wire on Part #775. Connect the
BLACK and the BLUE wires from
part #775 to +12V constant
fused at 20 amps. See
“positive” diagram.
If your vehicle has a negative
(-) parking output. When
probing the wire(s) coming
from your headlight switch,

seconds or until the ignition relay clicks or the check engine
light flashes on the dash once. Release Button #1. Press and
release any button on the new remote. The ignition relay clicks
or the check engine light will flash 3 times confirming that
the new remote was learned. Close the hood or remove the BLACK
