Warning! Safety first
The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:
• Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized Directed dealer.
• When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal from the remote control. Therefore, never
operate the system in an area that does not have adequate ventilation.
The following precautions are the sole responsibility of the user; however, authorized Directed dealers should:
• Never use a test light or logic probe when installing this unit. Always use a multimeter.
• Never operate the system in an enclosed or partially enclosed area without ventilation (such as a garage).
• When parking in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced, the remote start system must
be disabled using the installed toggle switch. It is the user’s sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from
children all remote controls to assure that the system does not unintentionally remote start the vehicle.
• USER MUST INSTALL A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA ADJACENT TO THE VEHICLE.
ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJACENT LIVING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE
STORAGE AREA MUST REMAIN CLOSED AT ALL TIMES.
Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of operation may result in property damage, personal injury, or
death. Except when performing the Safety Check outlined in this installation guide, (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with
the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the keys in the ignition. The user is responsible for having the
neutral safety feature of the vehicle periodically checked, wherein the vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear.
This testing should be performed by an authorized Directed dealer in accordance with the Safety Check outlined in this product
installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately and consult with the user to fix the problem
immediately.
OPERATION OF THE REMOTE START MODULE IF THE VEHICLE STARTS IN GEAR IS CONTRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF
OPERATION. OPERATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE
OR PERSONAL INJURY. IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE
START MODULE. DIRECTED WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.
Remote starters for manual transmission pose significant risks if not properly installed and operated. When testing to ensure the
installation is working properly, only remote start the vehicle in neutral gear, on a flat surface and with a functional, fully engaged
parking brake. Do not allow anyone to stand in front of or behind the vehicle.
This product should not be installed in any convertible vehicles, soft or hard top with a manual transmission. Installation in such
vehicles may pose certain risk.

Introduction
The MA3 firmware for Directed Digital Solutions is compatible with specific Mazda, Scion and Toyota vehicles.
It is a complete solution for remote start, security (if applicable), bypass interface, and convenience. This guide
provides information on the installation of the module using MA3. If you would prefer using this system as a
digital solution, go to www.directechs.com and search for the make, model and year of the vehicle. This will
allow you to find the proper firmware and corresponding installation guide.
Warning! This module can only be programmed via the web tool, which can be found on www.directechs.com or using the
Directechs Mobile application for mobile devices. Features and functions will become accessible when you connect the module
using the XKLoader.
Pre-installation and application warnings
Firmware notes: This section highlights important information for this specific firmware and will assist in
pricing accordingly, as well as bringing awareness to any operational or vehicle limitations.
T-Harness
compatible THMAC1 Keys required for
programming 1Keys required for
operation
see note
5
Important! In these vehicles, the factory keyless entry module is sensitive to interference and may cease to operate without
notice. Please ensure you disconnect the (-) terminal of the battery prior to disconnecting and reconnecting the connectors at
the start-stop module below the steering wheel to avoid damage to the keyless entry module.
The optional Plug & Play THMAC1 T-Harness is sold separately.
Scion iA and Toyota Yaris Sedan are not compatible with T-Harness THMAC1
The OBDII Diagnostic Connector features will remain the same even when the T-Harness is installed.
All connectors are displayed from the wire side (unless specified otherwise).
Refer to the "Vehicle wiring reference chart" following each installation type.
No takeover feature is available. The vehicle will shut down as soon as a door is opened.
To remote start the engine, the hood, hatch, and all doors must be closed.
When installing this solution with T-Harness THMAC1 in one of the vehicles from this guide, the vehicle's OEM alarm will
no longer be functional. The installation of a hybrid system (remote starter and alarm combo) is highly recommended to
preserve vehicle security.
It is normal for the key symbol to flash during remote start runtime.
Parking lights for Mazda 3 can also be found in drivers kick. Please refer to www.directechs.com for additional information.
General notes: This section highlights important information for this specific firmware.
[1] The installation of an aftermarket hood pin is ONLY required on vehicles that are NOT equipped with a factory hood pin.
[2] The siren is ONLY required when enabling the security features during module flashing.
[3] Only required to retain OEM remote functionality during remote start runtime if not using the THMAC1 T-Harness.
[4] See page 22 for more information about accessing the parking wiring. Parking lights for Mazda 3 can also be found in
drivers kick. Please refer to www.directechs.com for additional information.
[5] Type 5 vehicles only are not compatible with THMAC1 THarness. 1 (one) key is required for operation. For key wrap
instructions, refer to page 22.
[6] Connection required when enabling the security features during module flashing.
[7] Connection required when using a T-Harness THMAC1.
