White Positive Flashing Parking Light Output Wire

Positive Flashing Parking Light Output
White Wire
The White wire is a positive 12 volts 7 amp output for exterior flashing light confirmation and to attract attention to the vehicle if the security system is
triggered. Also, upon disarming, this circuit will stay on for 30 seconds to confirm disarming and to illuminate the way to the vehicle, which gives added security
when approaching the vehicle at night.
CONNECTION: Connect the White wire directly to the vehicle's positive 12 volts parking light circuit. This wire can usually be found at the following
locations: at the Headlight Switch, at the Fuse/Junction Block, or in the rear body wiring harness which is usually found in the driver's kick panel. The correct
wire will show positive 12 volts when the headlight switch is in the "Parking Light" and "Head Light" positions. When such a wire is located, be sure to also
test that it is non-rheostated: while metering the wire, operate the dash light dimmer control. The correct wire will show no change in voltage when the dimmer
is operated. Caution: Do not attempt to flash the parking lights by connecting the White wire to a rheostated (dimmer) circuit! This will backfeed the parking
lights through the rheostat or illumination control module, and possibly cause damage to the vehicle or system control unit. Also, if the White wire touches
chassis ground without the protection of the 10 amp fuse, the Printed Circuit Board and onboard relay will be damaged. Some vehicles, notably Toyotas, have
a parking light relay which is triggered by a negative ground circuit from the headlight switch. These cars can still be connected directly to the White wire by
finding the parking light circuit after the relay, usually at the Fuse/Junction Block.
Connecting The White Wire Directly To Standard Parking Lights.

Dash Lights
It is not recommended to flash
the headlights instead of parking lights.
The halogen headlights found in mod-
ern vehicles are not designed to be rap-
idly turned on and off. If connected to
the
security syste
m, a reduction of their
useful life may be noticed. If flashing
the headlights is still desired, a relay
must be used, since the headlight's cur-
rent draw exceeds the 7 amp rating of
the onboard relay. If flashing headlights
and parking lights are desired, use the
diagram for left and right parking lights
using two relays - one relay will supply
the parking lights and the other relay
will supply the headlights. Any appli-
cation that requires more than 7 amps
of output must use an external relay.
