This product is designed for fuel-injected, automatic transmission vehicles only. Installing it in a standard transmission vehicle is dangerous and is contrary to its intended use.before beginning the installation■  Please read this entire installation guide before beginning the installation. The installation of this remote start system requires interfacing with many of the vehicle’s systems. Many new vehicles use low-voltage or multiplexed systems that can be damaged by low resistance testing devices, such as test lights and logic probes (computer safe test lights). Test all circuits with a high quality digital multi-meter before making con-nections.■  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. Many airbag systems will display a diagnostic code through their warning lights after they lose power. Disconnecting the battery requires this code to be erased, which can require a trip to the dealer.■  Check with the customer on status LED location.■  Remove the domelight fuse. This prevents accidentally draining the battery.■  Roll down a window to avoid being locked out of the car.after the installation■  Test all functions. The “Using Your System” section of the Owner's Guide is very helpful when testing.■  When testing, don’t forget that this system is equipped with Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry (NPC). NPC can bypass trigger zones, making them appear to stop working. See the Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry section.■  Review and complete the Safety Check section of this guide prior to the vehicle reassembly.DRAFT
DRAFT© 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserved 7deciding on component locationslocations for the sirenSome 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 and its wires should be difficult to find. This usually in volves disguising the wire to look like a factory 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 har ness es 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 center of a grommet, never through bare metal!■  Point the siren down so water does not collect in it.locations for the control moduleSome things to remember about where to mount the control module:■  Never put the control module in the engine compartment!■  The first step in hot-wiring a vehicle is removing the driver's side under-dash panel to access the starter and ignition wires. If the control module is placed just behind the driver's side dash it can easily be discon-nected.■  When mounting the control module, try to find a secure location that will not require you to extend the har-nesses’ wires (they are 1.5 meters long). Keep it away from the heater core (or any other heat sources) and any obvious leaks.■  Some good control module locations are: Above the glove box, inside the center console, above the under-DRAFT
DRAFT8  © 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserveddash fuse box, or above the radio.mounting the antennaThe 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 horizontally. It can be mounted vertically but range will be diminished. 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:1.  Clean the mounting area with a quality glass cleaner or alcohol to remove any dirt or residue.3.  Mount the antenna using the supplied double-sided tape.4.  Route the antenna cable to the control module and plug it into the antenna connector.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 location.locations for stinger doubleguard shock sensorSome things to remember about where to mount the shock sensor:■  Never put the Stinger® 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 Stinger® is mounted is the most important factor in its performance. We recommend two meth-ods:■  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.DRAFT
DRAFT© 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserved 9locations for valet/program switchIMPORTANT! When the vehicle is delivered, please show the user where this switch is lo cat ed and how to disarm the system with it.Ensure that the location you pick for the switch has sufficient clearance to the rear. The switch should be well hidden. It should be placed so pas sen gers or stored items (such as in a glove box or center console) cannot accidentally hit it. The switch fits into a 9/32-inch hole.This system has Remote Valet. The user can enter and exit Valet Mode without having to reach the Valet/Program switch. This feature was introduced so that switch location was less critical in day-to-day use. As long as the Valet/Program switch can be reached to disarm without a transmitter, easy access is not important.locations for the status LEDThings to remember when po si tion ing 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 re mov able. This lets me chan ics or other installers remove the pan el with out cut ting the wires.DRAFT
DRAFT10  © 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reservedlocations for the optional starter kill relayIf optional starter kill relay or its connections are immediately visible upon removal of the under-dash panel, they can easily be bypassed. Always make the relay and its con nec tions difficult to discern from the factory wiring! Exposed yellow butt connectors do not look like factory parts, and will not fool anyone! For this reason, routing the optional starter kill wires away from the steering column is recommended.locations for the relay satelliteThe relay satellite wiring carries large amounts of current. The wires should not be extended and should be cut to the minimum length necessary. Since the relay satellite is functioning as the ignition switch in the vehicle, it is often convenient to mount the relay satellite close to the main ignition switch harness.finding the wires you needNow that you have decided where each component will be located, you’re going to find the wires in the car that the security system will be connected to.IMPORTANT! Do not use a 12V test light or logic probe (computer safe test light) to find these wires! Use a digital multimeter for all testing.obtaining constant 12VWe 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, fuse accordingly.IMPORTANT! Do not remove the fuse holder on the red wire. It ensures that the control module has its own fuse, of the proper value, regardless of how many accessories are added to the main power feed.DRAFT
DRAFT© 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserved 11finding the 12V switched ignition wireThe 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 more current avail able to the starter motor. How to find (+)12V ignition with your multimeter:                  1.  Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine).          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 ig ni tion switch harness is an excellent place to find this wire.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 po si tion. The meter display should stay steady, not drop ping by 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 ig ni tion wire.finding the starter wireThe 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 find the starter wire with your multimeter:     1.  Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine).                2.  Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.3.  Probe the wire you suspect of being the starter wire. The steering column is an ex cel lent place to find this wire. Re mem ber you do not need to interrupt the starter at the same point you test it. Hiding your optional starter kill relay and con nec tions is always rec om mend ed.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 DRAFT
DRAFT12  © 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reservedturn over, you have the right wire.finding the accessory wireAn accessory wire will show +12V when the key is in the accessory and run positions. It will not show +12V during the cranking cycle. There will often be more than one accessory wire in the ignition harness. The correct accessory wire will power 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.finding the tachometer wireTo test for a tachometer wire, a multimeter capable of testing AC voltage must be used. The tachometer wire will show between 1V and 6V AC. In multi-coil ignition systems, the system can learn individual coil wires. 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 using a test light or logic probe (computer safe test light)! This will damage the vehicle.How to find a tachometer wire with your multimeter:1.  Set to 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.finding the wait-to-start bulb wire for diesels In diesel vehicles it is necessary to interface with the wire that turns on the WAIT TO START light in the dash-board. 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 available 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 multimeter to DCV or DC voltage (12 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 correct wire and the wire's DRAFT
DRAFT© 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserved 13polarity 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 correct wire and the wire's polarity is positive.finding a (+) parking light wireThe (+) parking light wire is often found near the switch. Many cars have the switch built into the turn signal lever, and in these cars the parking light wire can be found in the steering column. The same wire is often avail-able in the kick panel or running board.NOTE: Many Toyotas, as well as many other Asian vehicles, send a (-) signal from the switch to a relay. The relay then sends (+)12V to the bulbs. Whenever you have difficulty finding a (+) parking light wire near the switch, simply test the wires at any switch or control panel which is lit by the instrument panel lighting. Remember, you need a (+) parking light wire that does not vary with the dimmer setting.How to find a (+) parking light flash wire with your multimeter:1.  Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine).2.  Attach the (-) probe of the meter to chassis ground.3.  Probe the wire you suspect of being the parking light wire. Usually, the area near the headlight/park ing light switch is an excellent area to start, as is the kick panel.4.  Turn on the parking lights. If your meter shows (+)12V, turn off the parking lights and make sure it goes back to zero.5.  If it does return to zero, turn the parking lights back on and, using the dash light dim mer con trol, turn the brightness of the dash lights up and down. If the meter changes more than a volt when using the dimmer, look for an oth er wire. If it stays relatively close to (+)12V, you have found your parking light wire.finding the door pin switch circuitThe best places to find the door switch wire are:■  At the pin switch: When testing at the pin switch, check the 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.DRAFT
DRAFT14  © 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserved■  At the dome light: This may not be your best choice if the vehicle has delayed domelight supervision, but it will work in many Hondas, or any vehicle with completely diode-isolated pin switches.Once you have determined the wire color, 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 domelight itself is often the best solution.How to find a door pin switch trigger wire with your multimeter:1.  Set to DCV or DC voltage (12V or 20V is fine).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 con stant.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 standard-type pin switches. The dome light in these vehicles is turned on when the door handle is lifted. These usually 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 connectionsBefore making your connections, plan how your wires will be routed through the vehicle. For instance, the red 12V constant input and the orange ground-when-armed output (for the optional starter kill relay) will often be routed together to the ignition switch harness. In order to keep the wiring neat and make it harder to find, you may wish to wrap these wires together in electrical tape or conceal them in tubing similar to what the manu-facturer used.There are two acceptable ways of making a wire connection - solder con nec tions 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 DRAFT

Instead, a mechanical neutral safety switch that physically interrupts the starter wire is used when the vehicle is in any drive gear. If the remote start is inter-faced before this switch, it will provide protection from starting in gear. However, some vehicles combine the column shift mechanism and the mechanical neutral safety switch into one mechanical part. In these vehicles, it is impossible to interface the remote start system before the neutral safety switch. With this type of vehicle, if the car is left in a drive gear and the remote start system is activated, the vehicle will move and may cause damage to persons or property.According to available information, the only vehicles currently manufactured this way are most General Motors trucks, sport utility vehicles and column shifting passenger cars. Available information also indicates that pre-1996 Dodge Dakota pickups with 2.5 liter motors are manufactured this way as well.GM vehicles that have the neutral safety switch built into the column shifter can usually be identified by a purple starter wire. Typically, vehicles that use an outboard mechanical switch use a yellow wire from the ignition switch DRAFT
DRAFT© 2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserved 29to the mechanical switch and a purple wire from the mechanical switch to the starter itself. Remember, this is only a rule of thumb and is not intended as a substitute for proper testing.We suggest the following procedure to test for vehicles manufactured in this way.NOTE: You must complete the remote start system installation before doing the following test. Ensure that the remote start system is functioning normally. This includes connecting to the brake as a shut-down.testing the neutral safety switch1.  Make sure there is adequate clearance to the front and rear of the vehicle because it may move slightly.2.  Make sure the hood is closed and there are no remote start shut-downs active.3.  Set the emergency brake.4.   Turn the key to the "run" position, this will release the shifter.5.   Place the car in drive (D).6.  Place your foot directly over the brake pedal, but do not depress it. Be ready to step on the brake if the starter engages.7.  Activate the remote start system.8.  If the starter engages, immediately depress the brake to shut the remote start system down. If the starter does not engage, no additional safety system is required.If the starter engages and the vehicle is a General Motors product or Dodge Dakota pickup, refer to the follow-ing text and diagrams for an alternative shut-down method which will prevent the starter from engaging. If the vehicle is not a General Motors product or a Dodge Dakota pickup, please call Directed Electronics Technical Support for an alternative shut-down method. Do not return the vehicle to the customer until this feature is properly installed!Every vehicle built in this fashion requires that the shifter be placed in park to remove the keys from the igni-tion. As a result, it is possible to use the key-in-ignition sense switch to prevent remote starting if the keys are in the ignition. The following diagrams illustrate how to accomplish this. The first diagram applies to all General Motors vehicles at the present time. The second diagram applies to all pre-1996 Dodge Dakota pickup trucks with 2.5 liter motors. This solution has one side effect - if the customer inserts the key in the ignition with the driver's door open, the remote start system will shut down. If this interface is used it is important to inform the customer to close the driver’s door before inserting the key into the ignition when the remote start is active. This will allow the customer to turn the key on and shut the remote start down by pressing the brake without the key sense wire shutting down the unit prematurely.In addition, you must connect a tan (+) shut-down input to the yellow wire on the relay satellite ribbon cable. This prevents the remote start system from activating if the key is left in the "run" position. If your remote start system only has one tan input, you must use diodes to isolate the ignition circuit from the brake switch input.DRAFT

In addition, color variations are possible from model to model; make sure to test the circuit carefully. Please call Directed Electronics Technical Support if you need assistance in making this interface.IMPORTANT! Once the interface is complete, attempt to remote start the vehicle with the door closed and the key in the ignition. The vehicle should not start.

An optional "VATS pack" of resistors is available (p/n 652T). One of the resistors in the pack will match the resistor in the key.The VATS wires will be two very light-gauge wires coming out of the steering column. The colors of the wires vary, but they are often contained in orange tubing - either both will be white wires, or one wire will be purple/white and the other white/black. Determine the value of the resistor in the key. Then follow the diagram below to bypass VATS during remote start operation.
