Factory Alarm/Disarm

Since most newer vehicles come equipped with a factory alarm system, it is necessary for the factory alarm to be disarmed while remote starting the vehicle.

Locate the factory alarm disarm wire using the web vehicle infor- mation. Once the suspect wire is located, place the multi-meter’s red lead to a (+)12 volt constant source and secure it. Put the multi-meter in the DC position then probe the suspect wire with the black lead of your meter. While probing the wire, place the key in the drivers door cylinder. Turn it to the unlock posi- tion and hold it. The multi-meter should read between 10.00 volts and 13.00 volts and will disappear when the key is released.

When the correct wire has been found, solder the small GREEN/BLACK wire to it and cover the connection with elec- trical tape.
