Precautions: Please read carefully
This Remote Starter with Alarm and Keyless Entry System has been designed to be installed BY PROFESSIONAL
INSTALLERS on fuel-injected vehicles with an automatic transmission ONLY.
 Never install this remote starter on a manual transmission vehicle.
 This system must be installed and wired through a safety switch so it will not start in any forward or
reverse gear.
 Once you install this system, you must verify that the vehicle will not start in any forward or reverse
gear, regardless of the type of vehicle.
 Read the operation manual for operating.
 Do not install any component near the brake, gas pedal or steering linkage.
 Some vehicles have a factory installed transponder immobilizer system that can severely complicate
the installation. There is a possibility that this system cannot be installed on some immobilizer-equipped
vehicles.
 Most vehicles have an SRS air bag system. Use extreme care and do not probe any wires of the SRS
system.
 Disconnect the car battery before beginning work on the vehicle.
 Check behind panels before drilling any holes. Ensure that no wiring harness or other components
are located behind the panels that would otherwise be damaged.
 Do not use conventional crimp lock, bullet on any wiring. Poor wiring, i.e. taped joints will possibly
introduce unreliability into the alarm system and may result in false alarms or incorrect operation. We
suggest soldering all connection points.

WIRING

E9 IN REV. A 5
Keep wiring away from moving engine parts, exhaust pipes and high-tension cable. Be sure to tape wires
that pass through holes on the firewall to prevent fraying.
CAUTION: Do not connect the wire harness to the control module until all wiring to vehicle is complete.
6 PIN HEAVY GAUGE WIRING CONNECTIONS:
Remember that what the system does to start a vehicle is to duplicate the functions of the ignition key
switch! Below, we will explain the three basic functions of the ignition switch. Since this installation will
require analysis of the ignition switch functions, we recommend making the three connections below at
the ignition switch harness directly.
Violet Wire—Starter Output
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.
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 low current start solenoid wire of the ignition switch harness. This wire has +12 volts
when the ignition switch is turned to the “START” (CRANK) position only. This wire has 0 volts in all
other ignition switch positions.
NOTE: This wire must be connected to the vehicle side of the starter cut relay (when used). For the
electrical neutral switch configuration, this connection must be made between the starter inhibit relay
(when used) and the neutral safety switch as shown in the following diagram. Failure to connect this
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.

Red Wire (2) — +12V Power Input
Remove the two 20A fuses prior to connecting these wires and do not replace them until the satellite
has been plugged into the control module. These wires are the source of current for all the circuits the
relay satellite will energize. They must be connected to a high current source. Since the factory
supplies (+) 12V to the key switch that is used to operate the motor, it is recommended that these wires
be connected there.
Note: If the factory supplies two separate (+) 12V feeds to the ignition switch, connect one RED wire of
the satellite to each feed at the switch.
Yellow Wire – Ignition 1 Output
Connect the YELLOW wire to the ignition 1 wire from the ignition switch. The ignition wire should
receive “12 volts” when the ignition key is in the “ON” or “RUN” and “START” or “CRANK” position.
When the ignition is turned “OFF”, the ignition wire should receive “0” voltage. The YELLOW wire
must be connected.
PINK Wire – Ignition 2 Output

E9 IN REV. A 6
Some vehicles have [2] ignition wires that must be power. Connect the PINK wire to the ignition 2 wire
from the ignition switch. The ignition wire should receive “12 volts” when the ignition key is in the “ON”
or “RUN” and “START” or “CRANK” position. When the ignition is turned “OFF”, the ignition wire should
receive “0” voltage. If the PINK wire is not used, cap the end of the wire.
Brown Wire –Accessory Output (Heater /AC Output)
Connect the BROWN wire to the accessory wire in the vehicle that powers the climate control system.
An accessory wire will show + 12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the “ACCESSORY” or “ON”
and “RUN” positions, and will show 0 Volts when the key is turned to the “OFF” and “START” or
“CRANK” position. There will often be more than one accessory wire in the ignition harness. The
correct accessory wire will provide power to the vehicle’s climate control system. Some vehicles may
have separate wires for the blower motor and the air conditioning compressor. In such cases, it will be
necessary to add a relay to power the second accessory wire.
RS232 Two way SERIAL DATA PORT CONNECTION:
This connector is to be used for Serial Data communications with idatalink modules by Encore
only! DO NOT CONNECT THIS TO ANY OTHER WIRING!
This port will only operate correctly with Encore idatalink Modules.
2 PIN WHITE CONNECTOR (THE LED STATUS INDICATOR):
The led indicator status should be mounted in a highly visible area such as top of the dashboard, on top
of the shifter console or on the dashboard face. Leave at least 6mm space behind the mounting location
for LED housing. Once a suitable location is chosen, drill a 6mm hole. Run the LED wires through the
hole then press the 2 pin LED housing into place. Route the LED wires to the control module.
5 PIN WIRE HARNESS:
RED / WHITE WIRE –PARKING LIGHT RELAY INPUT —
The RED/WHITE wire is the input to the flashing parking light relay. The connection of the RED/WHITE
wire will determine the output polarity of the flashing parking light relay.
If the vehicle you are working on has +12volt switched parking lights, you don’t need connect this wire.
This wire is already connected to +12volt.
If the vehicle’s parking lights are ground switched, cut the RED/WHITE wire, connect the RED/WHITE
wire to chassis ground.
WHITE WIRE — PARKING LIGHT RELAY OUTPUT
(+12 V 10A OUTPUT) —
Connect the WHITE wire to the parking light wire coming from the headlight switch. Do not connect the
WHITE wire to the dashboard lighting dimmer switch. (Damage to the dimmer will result). The limitation
of the WHITE wire is 10 AMP max. Do not exceed this limit or damage to the alarm and parking relay
will result.
BLACK WIRE — SYSTEM GROUND –
This is the main ground connection of the alarm module. Make this connection to a solid section of the
vehicle frame. Do not connect this wire to any existing ground wires supplied by the factory wire loom,
make the connection to the vehicle’s frame directly.
BROWN WIRE – (+) SIREN OUTPUT –
This wire is provides power to the supplied siren. Connect the Brown wire to the Red wire of the siren.
Connect the Black wire of the siren to a stable chassis ground.

E9 IN REV. A 7
RED WIRE — SYSTEM POWER (+12V CONSTANT) —
The RED wire supplies power to the system. Connect this wire to a stable constant +12 volt source.
H5. 3-PIN BLACK CONNECTOR. – TWO-WAY TRANSCEIVER/ANTENNA MODULE
The Two-way transceiver/antenna mounting location
should be the upper left or lower left corner of
driver’s windshield. For optimum range we
suggest that the antenna be mounted Antenna
tip facing down.
Warning!
Do not mount in such a manner that it obstructs the
driver’s view.
- Remove the protective tape backing.
- Carefully align the two-way transceiver/antenna and apply to windshield.
- Route the black connector wire behind the trim and connect to the two-way transceiver/antenna.
- Connect the other end to the control module.
- Special considerations must be made for windshield glass as some newer vehicles utilize a
metal-shielded window glass that will inhibit or restrict RF reception. In these vehicles, route the two ways
transceiver/antenna module away from metallic shielded window glass as far as possible.
2 PIN BLUE CONNECTOR FOR THE VALET SWITCH:
Select a mounting location for the switch that is easily accessible to the driver of the vehicle. The switch
does not have to be concealed, however, concealing the switch is always recommended, as this
provides an even higher level of security to the vehicle. Mount the valet switch in a hidden but
accessible location. Route the valet switch wires to the control module.

Violet wire – Positive Door Switch Sensing Input (Zone 3)–
This wire is the positive trigger input wire for positive door pin switch. This wire is connection for "positive" type
factory door pins(typical FORD MOTOR). Locate the "common wire" for all door pins and make the connection of
the VIOLET Wire here.
White / Red wire – Tachometer Signal Connection –
Note: You should connect this wire if you program the Start Feature E – 2 to “Tachometer checking type”,
otherwise do not connect this wire and tap the end.
Note: No connection of this wire is required, if you use the voltage or timer checking type mode.
This input provides the remote start system with information about the engine’s revolutions per minute (RPM). It
can be connected to the negative side of the coil in vehicle with conventional coils. In multi-coil and high energy
ignition system locating a proper signal may be more difficult. Once connected,
To test for a tachometer wire, a multi-meter capable of test AC voltage must be used. The tachometer wire will
show between 1V and 6V AC at idle, and will increase as engine RPM increases. In multi-coil ignition system, the
system can learn individual coil wire. Individual coil wires in a multi-coil ignition system will register lower amounts
of AC voltage. Also, if necessary, the system can use a fuel injector control wire for engine speed sensing.
Common locations for a tachometer wire are the ignition coil itself, the back of the gauges, engine computers, and
automatic transmission computers.
IMPORTANT! Do not test tachometer wires with a test light or logic probe. The vehicle will be damaged.
How to find a tachometer wire with your multi-meter
1. Set the ACV or AC voltage (12V or 20V is fine.)
2. Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.
3. Start and run the vehicle.
4. Probe the wire you suspect of being the tachometer wire with the red probe of the meter.
5. If this is the correct wire the meter will read between 1V and 6V.
IMPORTANT NOTE: No initial programming necessary. Default = voltage sensing mode
Green wire – Negative Door Switch Sensing Input (Zone 3) –
This wire is the ground trigger input wire for negative door pin switch. This wire is connection for "grounding" type
factory door pins locate the "common wire" that connects the door pin switches. Make the connection of the

Transponder interfacing using relay:
If the vehicle has a transponder system installed, you will need to by-pass the system while the vehicle is operating
under the control of the Remote Start Unit.
To do this:
1.You will need a transponder key that's already programmed to the vehicle.
2.Remove the trim around the ignition switch.
3.Wrap a thin (28 - 30awg) wire tightly around ignition switch 6 to 8 times and secure it.
4.About 6"down line make another loop of approximately 2"diameter.
5.Place the key inside this loop and secure it to the loop.
6. Connect on end of the (28 - 30awg) wire to pin (87) of the relay module.
7. Connect the other end of the loop wire to Pin (30) of relay module.
8. Connect the pin (86) of the relay module to the ignition wire from the ignition switch.
9. Connect the pin (85) of the relay module to the H10/11 yellow wire of 20-pin connector.
GM VATS KEY OVERRIDE:
If the vehicle has the General Motor VATS system installed, you will need to by-pass the system while the vehicle
is operating under the control of the Remote Start Unit. To do this:
1. Measure the resistance of the resistor pellet on the ignition key then select a resistor within 5% of the key’s
value.
2. Locate the pair of VATS wires in the vehicle, usually a pair of thin gauge wires running from the ignition switch to
the VATS control module.
3. Connect the YELLOW wire from Remote Start Unit to TERMINAL #85 of an external relay. Connect terminal
#86 of the relay to a fused +12 volt.
4. Cut (#1) wire (as shown), and connect the ignition switch side of the cut wire to terminal #87a of the relay.
Connect the other side of the (#1) wire to terminal #30.
5. Connect the previously seleted resistor from terminal #87 to the second(#2) wire (as shown).

This output is programmable. If programmed rearm a factory installed security system. This wire will supply a pulse
whenever the remote start times out or is shut dowm using the transmitter and remote door locking.
White / Blue wire – (-) Instant Start & Turn Off Input –
This wire activates and turns off the remote starter each time it sees a momentary ground signal. Normally used for
testing during installation or when activating the module from an after-market system.
White/Green wire – (-) Diesel Wait To Start Input
(See Start Feature Programming)
In diesel vehicles it is necessary to interface with the wire that on the WAIT-TO-START light in the dashboard. This
wire illuminates the bulb until the vehicle’s glow plugs are properly heated. When the light goes out the vehicle can
be started. This wire is always at the connector leading to the bulb in the dashboard. It can also be found at the
Engine Control Module (ECM) in many vehicles.
To test and determine the polarity of this wire:
1. Set your multi-meter to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine).
2. Attach the (+) probe of the meter to (+) 12V.
3. Probe the wire that you suspect leads to the bulb with the (-) probe of the meter.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
5. If the meter indicates 12 volts until the light goes out you have isolated the connect wire and the wire’s polarity is
negative (ground while the bulb is on).
6. If the meter reads zero volts until the light goes out and then reads 12 volts, you have isolated the connect wire
and the wire’s polarity is positive.
Connect this wire to the wire in the vehicle that sends the signal to turn on the WAIT-TO-START bulb in the
dashboard. In most diesels the wire is negative (ground turns on the bulb) and this wire can be directly connected
to the wire in the vehicle. If the vehicles use a positive wire (12V to turn the bulb) a relay must be used to change
the polarity.
