Making your wiring connections
Before making your connections, plan how your wires will be routed through the
vehicle. For instance, the red 12V constant input and the remote start ignition
wires will often be routed together to the ignition switch harness. In order to
keep the wiring neat and make it harder to find, you may wish to wrap these
wires together in electrical tape or conceal them in tubing similar to what the
manufacturer used.
There are two acceptable ways of making a wire connection - solder connections
and crimp connectors. When properly performed, either type of connection is
reliable and trouble-free. Regardless of whether you solder your connections or
you use mechanical-type crimp-on connections, ensure that all connections are
mechanically sound and that they are insulated.
Cheap electrical tape, especially when poorly applied, is not a reliable insulator.
It often falls off in hot weather. Use good-quality electrical tape or heat shrink.
Never twist-and-tape the wires together without soldering.
Never use “fuse taps”, as they can damage fuse box terminals.
If you use tapping connectors such as 3M T-Taps (not to be confused with Scotch-
Locks), avoid using them in higher-current applications (constant 12V, ground,
etc.) Some tapping connectors are inferior in quality and should be avoided.
