Gray Wire - Negative Instant Trigger:
The Gray wire is a Negative
instant trigger used primarily to detect entry into the hood or trunk area of a vehicle.
The Gray wire is also an important safety circuit for remote starting operations
so installation of a hood pin switch is required.
CONNECTION:
The included pin switch may be installed to provide this
trigger circuit; or, if there are existing switches the Gray wire may be connected
directly, provided this is a negative ground switching circuit (examples: an OEM
antitheft hood switch, or in the case of the trunk or hatch a light in the luggage
compartment or a "Trunk Ajar" light in the dash).
An indication of such a circuit is the wire having continuity to ground when the
hood or trunk is open, and up to 12 volts when the hood or trunk is closed. This wire
may be used with a mercury type of tilt switch, by itself, but it cannot be used with
existing hood or trunk lights which have an internal mercury switch. If the vehicle
is equipped with a usable trunk or hood circuit, locate the proper wire and splice the
Gray wire directly to the vehicle's wire. If not, then you must install a pin or mercury
switch, for open hood safety, and carefully adjust and test it.
Multiple use of the
Gray
wire:
When wiring more than one of the vehicle's
circuits and/or additional circuits to this wire, diode-isolation is usually required to
maintain each circuit's proper independent operation. An example would be wiring
a hood pin switch and trunk light switch together. Without isolating, the trunk light
will turn illuminate whenever the hood is raised. Also, diode-isolation is necessary
when combining electronic sensors together, or when adding a sensor in the same
circuit as the pin switches.

To custom program a new SecureCode:
Step 3
After entering the first stage by pressing the “arm/lock” button the
desired number of times, and receiving a chirp for each press, wait for the
Step 2
Within 10 seconds slowly press and release the transmitter’s
“arm/lock” button the number of times equal to the desired SecureCode
for stage 1, allow the system to respond to each transmitter
button press with a siren chirp before pressing the button again.
Step 1
Follow Steps 1 to 4 in the previous “How to Program Features” instruc-
tions; at Step 4 the Valet Switch will be pressed and released once (the
siren chirps once) to access “feature #1”.
Feature #1 SecureCode
Factory Default Setting
1 Press
Options:
1 to 9 presses, in each of two stages
Step 4
Continue to configure stage 2 of the SecureCode by now pressing and
releasing the “disarm/unlock” button the number of times desired for the
stage 2. This should be done in the exact same fashion as the stage 1 entry-
press the “disarm/unlock” button, wait for a single chirp before pressing
the button again, and then when final button press is done, wait after the
single chirp for the siren to chirp the total number entered Valet Switch
entry.
system, after the final button press, to chirp the siren again the total
number of times that the button was pressed.
Feature #2 Last Door Arming

“Last Door Arming” has the system automatically arm itself every time the operator
exits the vehicle and closes the door. This feature turns that operation on or off, and
with options of having Last Door Arming operate with or without also locking the
doors when the system does arm.
SecureCode is a unique patented feature which allows you to custom select the
number of Valet Switch presses in two stages, instead of a single “1 press”, which
would be required in order to perform an Emergency Override. If any of the three
anti-carjacking features are utilized, a customized SecureCode would also be
required to turn it off once it is fully activated. The SecureCode operation is
described in the Operations Guide.
