The Black/White wire is a safety input wire. The remote start unit will not activate unless this wire is grounded.
When this wire is disconnected from ground, the remote start system is disabled.
1. The primary connection point for the Black/White wire is at the Neutral Safety Switch located on/at the
transmission shifting lever. The switch output must be GROUNDED when the shifter lever is in the PARK
position.

Gray Wire:
(-) Hood Safety Shut Down Input
The Gray wire provides instant shutdown for the remote start when it is grounded. Connect the Gray wire to an
existing hood pin switch or install the one provided in this kit. This wire must be routed through a grommet in the
firewall and connected to the hood pin switch. If the hood pin switch is also to be used as an alarm system trigger,
diodes are required as shown.
Important!
This connection is a safety wire and must be connected as shown and tested as specified. Failure to
do so may result in personal injury
or property damage.
Note:
The Gray wire can also be
used as the “Brake Safety”
connection if the vehicle brake light
circuit switches a ground signal to
the brake lights. An isolation diode
must be used and connected to the
output of the brake switch.

This wire is the ground trigger input wire for hood/trunk pin switches.
The Green wire is the ground trigger input wire for negative door pin switch.
The Violet wire is the positive trigger input wire for positive door pin switch.

White/Blue Wire:
AUX Start and Turn Off Input
This wire can turn on and off the remote start system each time it sees a momentary ground signal. This wire is
normally used for testing or activating the remote starter from an after-market alarm system.
A common connection point would be at the trunk release wire or the door lock wire.
