Installation Point To Remember
This product represents many years of research and development. It is very sophisticated and should be
installed by experienced security installers only. Please do not attempt installation of this product without
reading this guide. The system has been designed to provide the ultimate in security, coupled with limitless
convenience and expansion options.
Do not disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft coded radio. If equipped with an air bag, avoid
disconnecting the battery if possible.
IMPORTANT! Many airbag systems will display a diagnostic code through their warning light after they
lose power. Disconnecting the battery requires this code to be erased, a procedure that can require a trip
to the dealer.
Deciding On Component Locations
Locations For The Siren
Some things to remember about mounting the siren:
Keep it away from heat sources, such as radiators, exhaust manifolds, turbochargers and heat shields.
Mount it where a thief cannot easily disconnect it, whether the hood is open or shut. Both the siren
anditswiresshouldbedifculttond.Thisusuallyinvolvesdisguisingthewiretolooklikeafactory
harness.
We recommend against grounding the siren to its mounting screws. Instead, we recommend running
both the red and black wires into the passenger compartment and grounding to one common point for
all devices. After all, both wires are the same length and come already bonded together. Whenever
possible, conceal your wires in the factory harnesses or in the same style loom as the factory.
When possible, place the siren on the same side of the vehicle as the control module, where its wires
will reach the control module’s wires without extending them. Always run the wires through the centre
of a grommet, never through bare metal!
Point the siren down so water does not collect in it.
Locations For The Control Module (Main Black Box)
Some things to remember about where to mount the control module:
Never put the control module in the engine compartment!
Therststepinhotwiringavehicleisremovingthedriver’ssideunder-dashpaneltoaccessthestarter
and ignition wires. If the control module is placed just behind the driver’s side dash it can easily be
disconnected.
Whenmountingthecontrolmodule,trytondasecurelocationthatwillnotrequireyoutoextendthe
harness wires. Keep it away from the heater core (or any other heat sources) and any obvious leaks.
The higher the control module is in the vehicle, the better the transmitter range will be. If you put the
control module under a seat or inside a metal dashboard, range will suffer.
Some good control module locations: above the glove box, inside the centre console, above the under
dash fuse box, above the radio etc.

Antenna Position - Mounting the antenna
The antenna position should be discussed with the vehicle’s owner prior to installation, since the antenna
may be visible to the vehicle’s operator. The best location for the antenna is centered high on either the
front or rear windshield. For optimal range, the antenna should be mounted vertically. It can be mounted
horizontally in relation to the windshield or under the dashboard away from metal, but range will be di-
minished. Metallic window tint can also affect range, so this should be a consideration when determining
the mounting location.
After determining the best mounting location, follow these steps:
The position and location of the antenna will affect the remote control range.
route the antenna wire away from the control unit keeping the antenna as far away from metal as
possible. Avoid running the antenna along any wire harnesses.
Clean the mounting area with a quality glass cleaner or alcohol to remove any dirt or residue.
Mount the antenna using double-sided tape.
Do not shorten or lengthen the antenna.
IMPORTANT! To achieve the best possible range, DO NOT leave the antenna cable bundled under the
dash. Always extend the cable full length during installation, regardless of the antenna mounting loca-
tion.
Locations For Shock Sensor
Some things to remember about where to mount the shock sensor:
Never put the shock sensor in the engine compartment!
Find a spot close to the control module so that the wires do not need to be extended. Keep it away
from the heater core (or any other heat sources) and any obvious leaks.
How the shock sensor is mounted is the most important factor in its performance. We recom-
mend two methods:
Using double-sided tape or hook-and-loop fastener to mount to a trim panel or an air duct,
OR
Wire-tying to a wire harness.
If mounting the sensor where it cannot be easily reached for adjustment, hook-and-loop fastening tape
(such as Velcro) is recommended for ease of removal for future adjustments.
NOTE: In many vehicles, tying the sensor to a steering column or screwing it to metal will result in poor
sensitivity, especially at the rear of the vehicle.
Locations For The Ultrasonic Sensors - (OPTIONAL)
The (optional) Ultrasonic cells should be placed on the left and right side as high as possible so to obtain
the best performance.
Inappropriate adjustment for the Ultrasonic sensor may let to a false alarm. To prevent the false alarm,
make sure the sensibility of ultrasonic sensor is in an appropriate degree. An over adjustment is usually
the main reason to cause false alarm.

Locations For The Status LED
Things to remember when positioning the Status LED:
It should be visible from both sides and the rear of the vehicle, if possible.
It needs at least 1/2-inch clearance to the rear.
It is easiest to remove a small panel, such as a switch blank or a dash bezel, before drilling a 9/32-
inch hole.
Use quick-disconnects near the LED wires if the panel is removable. This lets mechanics or other in-
stallers remove the panel without cutting the wires.
LOCATIONS FOR THE IMMOBILISER RELAY - starter kill relay
If Immobiliser relay or its connections are immediately visible upon removal of the under-dash panel, they
easilycanbebypassed.Alwaysmaketherelayanditsconnectionsdifculttodiscernfromthefactorywir-
ing! Exposed yellow butt connectors do not look like factory parts, and will not fool anyone! For this reason,
routing the Immobiliser relay wires away from the steering column is recommended.
Finding The Wires You Need
Nowthatyouhavedecidedwhereeachcomponentwillbelocated,you’regoingtondthewiresinthecar
that the security system will be connected to.
IMPORTANT!Donotusea12Vtestlightorlogicprobe(computersafetestlight)tondthesewires!Use
a digital multimeter for all testing..
Obtaining Constant 12v
We recommend two possible sources for 12V constant: the (+) terminal of the battery, or the constant
supply to the ignition switch. Always install a fuse within 12 inches of this connection. If the fuse also will
be powering other circuits, such as door locks, a power window module, headlight control system, etc.,
fuse accordingly.
Finding The 12v Switched Ignition Wire - ON
The ignition wire is powered when the key is in the run or start position. This is because the ignition wire
powers the ignition system (spark plugs, coil) as well as the fuel delivery system (fuel pump, fuel injection
computer). Accessory wires lose power when the key is in the start position to make current available to
the starter motor.
How to nd (+) 12v ignition with your multimter:
1. SettoDCVorDcvoltage(12vor20visne).
2. Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.
3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the ignition wire. The steering column harness or ignition switch
harnessisanexcellentplacetondthiswire.
4. Turn the ignition key switch to the run position. if your meter reads (+)12v, go to the next step. If it
doesn’t, probe another wire.
5. Now turn the key to the start position. The meter display should stay steady, not dropping more than
a few tenths of a volt. If it drops close to or all the way to zero, go back to Step 3. If it stays steady
at (+) 12v, you have found an ignition wire. page 5

RightCLICK
Finding The Starter Wire - START
The starter wire provides 12V directly to the starter or to a relay controlling the starter. In some vehicles,
it is necessary to power a cold start circuit. A cold start circuit will test exactly like a starter circuit, but it
does not control the starter. Instead, the cold start circuit is used to prime the fuel injection system for
starting when the vehicle is cold.
How to nd the starter wire with your multimeter:
1. SettoDCVorDCvoltage(12Vor20Visne).
2. Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.
3. Probethewireyoususpectofbeingthestarterwire.Thesteeringcolumnisanexcellentplacetond
this wire. Remember you do not need to interrupt the starter at the same point you test it. Hiding your
starter kill relay and connections is always recommended.
4. Turn the ignition key switch to the start position. Make sure the car is not in gear! If your meter reads
(+)12V, go to the next step. If it doesn’t, probe another wire.
5. Cut the wire you suspect of being the starter wire.
6. Attempt to start the car. If the starter engages, reconnect it and go back to Step 3. If the starter does
not turn over, you have the right wire.
Finding The Accessory Wire - ACC
An accessory wire will show +12V when the key is in the accessory ACC and run ON positions. It will not
show +12V during the cranking cycle. There will often be more than one accessory wire in the ignition har-
ness. The correct accessory wire will power the vehicle’s climate control system (heating/air conditioning
system). Some vehicles may have separate wires for the blower motor and the air conditioning compressor.
How to nd the 12v accessory wire with your multimeter:
1. Set meter to DC voltage.
2. Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.
3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the accessory wire with the (+) probe. The steering column har-
nessorignitionharnessisanexcellentplacetondthiswire.
4. Turn the ignition key to the accessory and then the run position. If your meter reads 12V on each, go
to the next step.
5. Turn the key to the start position. The meter should drop to zero. If it does, this is the correct wire.

Finding The Door Pin Switch Circuit
The best places to nd the door switch wire are:
At the pin switch: when testing the pin switch, check wire to ensure that it “sees” all the doors. Often,
the passenger switch will cover all the doors even if the driver’s switch will not.
At the dome light: this may not be your best choice if the vehicle has delayed dome light supervision,
but it will work in many Hondas, or any vehicle with completely diode-isolated pin switches.
Once you have determined the wire colour, the easiest place to connect to the wire is often at the kick
panel, at the windshield pillar, or in the running board. When an easy location is not available, running a
wire to the dome light itself is often best solution.
How to nd a door pin switch trigger wire with multimeter:
1. SettoDCVorDcvoltage(12vor20Visne).
2. In most Fords, fasten the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground. In most other cars, fasten the (+)
probe of your meter to (+) 12v contant.
3. Probe the wire you suspect of being the door trigger wire. If the meter reads (+) 12v when any door
is opened, you have found a trigger wire..
NOTE: Make sure the wire you use “sees” all the doors! Some newer GM vehicles lack standardtype
pin switches. The dome light in these vehicles is turned on when the door handle is lifted. These usu-
ally have a blue/white or white wire coming out of the door into the kick panel which will provide a (-)
trigger for all doors. Some GM vehicles (some Cavaliers, Grand Ams, etc.) have a yellow wire coming
out of the door which provides a (+) door trigger.
Making Your Wiring Connections
Before making your connections, plan how your wires will be routed through the vehicle. In order to keep
thewiringneatandmakeithardertond,youmaywishtowrapthesewiresinelectricaltapeorconceal
them in tubing similar to what the manufacturer used.
There are two acceptable ways of making a wire connection - solder connections and crimp connectors.
When properly performed, either type of connection is reliable and trouble-free. Regardless of whether you
solder your connections or you use mechanical-type crimp-on connections, ensure that all connections are
mechanically sound and that they are insulated.
Cheap electrical tape, especially when poorly applied, is not a reliable insulator. It often falls off in hot
weather. Use good-quality electrical tape or heat shrink.
Never twist-and-tape the wires together without soldering.
Never use “fuse taps”, as they can damage fuse box terminals.
If you use tapping connectors such as 3M T-Taps (not to be confused with Scotch-Locks), avoid using them
in higher-current applications (constant 12V, ground, etc.). Some tapping connectors are inferior in quality
and should be avoided.
