wiring quick reference guide

warning! safety first

The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:

■Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized

DEI dealer.

■When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal from the remote control

transmitter. Therefore, never operate the system in an area that does not have adequate ventilation. The fol-

lowing precautions are the sole responsibility of the user; however, authorized DEI dealers should make the

following recommendations to all users of this system:

1. Never operate the system in an enclosed or partially enclosed area without ventilation (such as a garage).

2. When parking in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced, the remote

start system must be disabled using the installed toggle switch.

3. It is the user's sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from children all remote

control transmitters to assure that the system does not unintentionally remote start the vehicle.

4. THE USER MUST INSTALL A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA ADJACENT

TO THE VEHICLE. ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJACENT LIVING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR PAR-

TIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE STORAGE AREA MUST AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED.

■Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of operation may result in property damage,

personal injury, or death. Except when performing the Safety Check outlined in this installation guide, (1)

Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the

keys in the ignition. The user will be responsible for having the neutral safety feature of the vehicle period-

ically checked, wherein the vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear. This testing should be

performed by an authorized DEI dealer in accordance with the Safety Check outlined in this product instal-

lation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately and consult with the user

to fix the problem immediately.

■After the remote start module has been installed, test the remote start module in accordance with the Safety

Check outlined in this installation guide. If the vehicle starts when performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown

Circuit test, the remote start unit has not been properly installed. The remote start module must be removed

or properly reinstalled so that the vehicle does not start in gear. All installations must be performed by an

authorized DEI dealer. OPERATION OF THE REMOTE START MODULE IF THE VEHICLE STARTS IN GEAR IS CON-

TRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF OPERATION. OPERATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE

CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF

THE UNIT AND REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE START MODULE. DEI WILL NOT BE HELD

RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.

installation points to remember

IMPORTANT! 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.

■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.

To 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! 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 tachometer wire

before beginning the installation

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 polar-

ity 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.

■Test all functions. The “Using Your System” section of the Owner's Guide is very helpful when testing.

■Review and complete the Safety Check section of this guide prior to the vehicle reassembly.

The primary harness supplied with this unit is the standard 12-pin harness used by DEI®security systems. Three

wires in the plug are not used. The upgrade from this unit to a security system would simply require unplugging

and exchanging control units and connecting the necessary wires to the vehicle. The functions of all the wires

that are used in the primary harness are outlined in the following wiring diagram and the wire connections are

described in the wire connection guides.

This wire supplies a (-) 500 mA ground as long as the system is armed. This output ceases as soon as the system

is disarmed. The orange wire is pre-wired to control the 8618 starter kill relay.

NOTE: If connecting the orange wire to control another module, such as a 529T or 530T window

controller, a 1 amp diode (type 1N4004) will be required. Insert the diode as shown below.

IMPORTANT! Never interrupt any wire other than the starter wire.

As shipped, this wire should be connected to the (+) parking light wire. If the light flash polarity jumper is moved

to the opposite position (see Internal Programming Jumpers section), this wire supplies a (-)200 mA output. This

is available for driving (-) light control wires in Toyota, Lexus, BMW, some Mitsubishi, some Mazda, and various

other models.

NOTE: For parking light circuits that draw 10 amps or more, the internal jumper must be switched

to a (-) light flash output. (See the Internal Programming Jumper section of this guide.) P/N 8617

or a standard automotive SPDT relay must be used on the H1/2 light flash output harness wire.

Sending a negative pulse to this wire will initiate the remote start sequence. This wire can be wired to an optional

momentary switch to activate the remote start system.

Connect this wire to the optional domelight supervision relay as shown below:

IMPORTANT! This output is only intended to drive a relay. It cannot be connected directly to the

domelight circuit because the output cannot support the current draw of one or more light bulbs.
