CONTROL MODULE & COMPONENT MOUNTING
DO NOT Mount the control unit in the engine compartment or where the control unit or wiring harness
where they can become entangled with moving parts such as brake/gas/clutch pedals, or the steering
column!
The alarm control module should be mounted in a concealed location. The Placement of the
module will affect the distance from which the remote transmitter can control the unit. The antenna wire
should be routed away from any metal if possible. Do not alter the length of the antenna wire or route it with
other wires. Do not ground the antenna wire. Fasten the module to a bracket or wire harness using the cable
ties provided. Under dash Mounting: If you are locating the control unit underdash, mount it as high as
possible, not easily located by an intruder. Driver’s Side Under dash mounting provides an easy location for
wiring most of the system’s connections, however this is a common location for an intruder to check for an
alarm after breaking into the vehicle.
SIREN:
Mount the siren under the hood to an inner fender-well, wheel-well, or other body surface with the
open end facing downward. Run the red siren wire through the firewall using a rubber grommet. Ground the
black to the body metal near the siren or you can use one of the siren’s mounting screws for a ground.
LED:
Mount the red LED in a visible location on the dashboard or console.
Shock Sensor:
Mount the included shock sensor with wire ties to an under dash wire harness or fasten with
screws to firewall or side paneling. Use the adjustment screw to set the sensitivity of the sensor. One screw
adjusts both
Valet/Programming Button:
Mount the Valet/Override/Program push-button in a hidden but accessible
location. It is REQUIRED for emergency disarm, programming features and entering valet mode.
WIRING
GREEN WIRE: (-) NEGATIVE DOOR TRIGGER
Identify the wire that reads ground when any door is open and 12 volts when all doors are closed. Some
vehicles may have isolated door triggers. In this case you may need to run additional wires from other doors
or go directly to the wire that triggers the vehicle’s interior dome light. Sometimes newer vehicles contain a
separate body control module (BCM) where the door trigger circuit can be located. One vehicle will not
require the use of BOTH door trigger wires.
VIOLET WIRE: (+) POSITIVE DOOR TRIGGER
Same as the GREEN wire above except this wire is used for vehicles that show a positive voltage (12 volts)
when the door is open and a ground when doors are closed as in many Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles.
