WIRING A DIODE TO INTERFACE THE WAIT-TO-START WIRE
For vehicles with a (-) WAIT-TO-START wire, use a relay and wire as shown.
NOTE: On 2002-Up diesel vehicles, the vehicle’s WAIT-TO-START wire should not be directly interfaced with.
Use a pulse timer relay to delay the remote start’s activation so the vehicle’s glow plugs can be properly heated.
Directed Electronics makes a pulse timer relay that is readily available at many car audio and security specialty
shops. Part number is 528T.
TESTING THE HORN TRIGGER:
•
The horn trigger wire is usually found in one of the bundles of wires at the steering column.
NOTE: Always take care when working around the airbag wires. Do not probe or cut into them.
To find the (-) horn honk trigger wire with your multi-meter:
1. Set to DC voltage
2. Attach the (-) probe to chassis ground
3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the horn honk trigger wire with the other probe. The meter should read
12V.
4. Honk the horn. The meter should drop to 0V when the horn is honked. If it does, that is the correct wire.
