Notice 

The manufacturer will accept no responsibility for any electrical damage resulting from improper installation of the product, be
that either damage to the vehicle itself or to the unit. This unit must be installed by a certified technician using all safety devices 
supplied. Please note that this guide has been written for properly trained Autostart technicians: a certain level of skills and
knowledge is therefore assumed. Please review the installation guide carefully before beginning any work. 

Warning 

Before installing the unit, if installing on a vehicle with a 

manual

transmission, test that the OEM Door Switch contacts of the 

vehicle work well, and that the Parking Brake system operates properly. If installing on a vehicle with an 

automatic

transmission, test that the vehicle does not start when the gearshift lever is in the “Drive” position. If it starts in gear, reset the 
remote starter to manual transmission.

MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SETUP 

This module may be installed on vehicles with manual or automatic transmissions. It is originally configured for manual 
transmissions. If the vehicle you are working on is automatic, it is mandatory to make a few quick and easy modifications before
the unit is connected. In the event that the configuration requires changes afterwards, a complete reset will be necessary before
those changes become effective. 

To install this unit in a vehicle with a 

MANUAL

 transmission: 

1.

Make sure the Yellow loop on the PC board is connected. 

2.

Connect the Orange handbrake wire located on the 12-pin harness to the vehicle handbrake switch. 

3.

Connect the Blue/White (+) door input OR the Grey (-) door input wire located on the 12-pin harness to the vehicle door 
pin wire, which monitors all the doors of the vehicle (only use 1 of the 2 door trigger inputs). 

4.

Make sure the Purple TACH wire is plugged in – the TACH wire MUST be hooked up when the module is set for a 
manual transmission. 

5.

Make all your regular connections. 

6.

Power up the unit by first inserting the 5-pin connector, then the 6-pin connector and finally the 12-pin connector. The 
parking lights will flash 4 times. 

7.

When learning the transmitter, the parking lights will flash 5 times quickly. 

8.

Upon the first successful remote start, the system will lock the transmission settings to manual mode. 

To install this unit in a vehicle with an 

AUTOMATIC

 transmission: 

1.

Cut the loop on the pc board (Yellow wire). 

2.

Make sure the Orange handbrake wire is not connected to any of the vehicle circuits. 

3.

Make all the regular connections. 

4.

Power up the unit by first inserting the 5-pin connector, then the 6-pin connector and finally the 12-pin connector. The 
parking lights will flash 4 times. 

5.

When learning the first transmitter, the parking lights will flash 5 times quickly then give 2 slow flashes.

Quick Installation Guide 

‰

Parking brake shutdown circuit (manual transmissions only).

 With the vehicle running under remote start, 

disengage the parking brake. The engine should shut down immediately. If the engine continues to run, check the 
parking brake switch connection. 

‰

OEM alarm control.

 Make sure the module is able to arm and disarm the OEM alarm (if applicable). 

‰

Door locks and trunk testing. 

Make sure each of these options respond to the transmitter (if installed).

‰

Door pin shutdown circuit (manual transmissions only). 

Make sure the system exits ready mode when each 

door is opened. (Test each door.)

‰

Starter kill option.

 Sit inside the vehicle with all doors closed. Arm the vehicle, then try to start the engine with the 

key. The engine should not start. If the engine starts, rewire the starter kill to reach proper operation.

‰

Valet mode.

 Make sure the remote car starter is able to properly enter and exit valet mode. When setting the remote 

car starter into valet mode, pressing the

  

BUTTON

 will lock the doors without activating the starter kill. (Refer to 

the user guide for further information on valet mode.) 

‰

Idle mode.

 Make sure the vehicle properly enters and exits idle mode.

‰

Door.

 Make sure that when the system is armed, opening any door or opening the trunk will trigger the alarm (if 

installed).

‰

Most comebacks are the result of misunderstandings about how a product works or performs. Take the time 
to properly explain all functions and features to the customers before they leave the premises. Doing this 
will save time and money.
