HC1: White 6-Pin High Current Remote Starter Harness
The method that the remote starter uses to start the vehicle is a duplicate of the ignition switch
function. Below, is an explanation of the 3 basic functions of the ignition switch. Since this
installation will require analysis of the ignition switch functions, it is recommended that you
make the three connections below at the ignition switch harness directly.
Careful consideration for the connection of this wire must be made to prevent the vehicle from starting while in
gear. Understanding the difference between a mechanical and an electrical Neutral Start Switch will allow you to
properly identify the circuit and select the correct installation method. In addition you will realize why the
connection of the safety wire is required for all mechanical switch configurations.
WARNING!
Failure to make this connection properly can result in personal injury and property damage.
In all installations it is the responsibility of the installing technician to test the remote start unit and assure that
the vehicle can not start via RF control in any gear selection other than park or neutral.
In both mechanical and electrical neutral start switch configurations, the connection of the “Violet” wire will be
made to the “Starter Side” of the low current start solenoid wire at the ignition switch. This wire must have +12
volts when the ignition switch is turned to the “START” (crank) position only. Cut the starter wire and connect
the Violet wire to the Starter Side of the cut wire. DO NOT connect the Violet wire to the starter side of a
mechanical neutral safety switch. Failure to connect the Violet wire to the ignition switch side of the neutral
safety switch can result in personal injury and property damage (see Neutral Start Safety Test for further
details).
