VIOLET WIRE: Accessory Output

Connect this wire to the Accessory wire from the ignition switch. This 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" positions.

WIRING CONNECTIONS: 12 Pin Input / Output Harness

Black Wire: Chassis Ground Source

Connect the Black wire to a known vehicle ground source or to a solid clean metal part of the chassis. Be certain to remove any paint or grease and secure this wire with a self-tapping screw and ring terminal.

GRAY WIRE: Negative Inhibit Input 1

Connect the GRAY wire to the previously mounted hood pin switch provided. This wire will be routed through the firewall into the engine compartment. It is necessary to use an existing grommet when passing wires through the firewall to prevent short circuiting. This is an important safety feature of the System, failure to use this feature can result in serious injury. Route the wire to the pin switch and connect it using the bullet connector provided.

GRAY w/ BLACK TRACER WIRE: Negative Inhibit Input 2

Any time the gray w/ black tracer wire is grounded, the Remote Starter will stop operating, even if the signal is received from the transmitter.

If the brake light switch in the vehicle switches ground to the brake light circuit, connect the Gray w/ Black trace wire to the output of the brake light switch. If the brake light switch in the vehicle switches +12 Volts, do not use the Gray w/ Black wire; see Brown w/ Black tracer wire.

BROWN WIRE: Positive Inhibit Input 1

Any time + 12 Volts is applied to the Brown wire, the Remote Starter will stop operating, even if the signal is received from the transmitter.

If the vehicle has a factory installed hood pin switch and that switch provides + 12 Volts to an under hood light, the Brown wire can be connected to the existing pin switch.

BROWN w/ BLACK Tracer Wire: Positive Inhibit Input 2

Any time + 12 Volts is applied to the Brown w/ Black tracer wire, the Remote Starter will stop operating, even if the signal is received from the transmitter. If the brake light switch in the vehicle switches + 12 Volts to the brake light circuit, connect the Brown w/ Black trace wire to the output of the brake light switch. If the brake light switch in the vehicle switches ground, do not use the Brown w/ Black wire; see Gray w/ Black tracer wire.
