This Remote Start is to be used in vehicles with 

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS

 only!  Although this sys-

tem is a sophisticated device with many advanced features, 

IT MUST NOT 

be installed into a vehicle with  

manually operated transmission

.  Doing so may result in serious personal injury and property damage!

INSTALLATION OF THE MAJOR COMPONENTS:

CONTROL MODULE:   

PART # 1365401

Select a mounting location inside the passenger compartment (up behind the dashboard).  The mounting  

location selected must be within 24" of the ignition switch wiring harness to allow connection of the 6 pin 

main wiring harness. Be certain that the chosen location will not interfere with proper operation of the 

vehicle.  Avoid mounting the module to or routing the wiring around the steering shaft/column, as the mod-

ule or wiring may wrap around or block the steering wheel preventing proper control of the vehicle.  The 

module will be secured after all wiring is completed which will allow complete access until the job is done. 

Do Not Mount The Module In The Engine Compartment

, as it is not waterproof.

HOOD PIN SWITCH:   

PART # 1363699

The pin switch included in this package is intended for protecting the hood area of the vehicle.  In all cases, 

the switch must be mounted to a grounded metal surface.  When the pin switch is activated, (hood open),  

it will supply a ground to the input wire activating the alarm.  In addition, the hood switch is required for 

the safety shut down of the remote start unit.  If the vehicle is being worked on,  this hood switch prevents 

the remote start activation even if the RF command to start is issued. 

 This switch must be installed in 

all applications.  Failure to do so may result in personal injury or property damage.
THE PUSH BUTTON PROGRAM SWITCH/LED/RECEIVER/ANTENNA ASSEMBLY: PART # 1181254

The Superheterodyne Receiver Antenna Assembly provided with this unit allows routing from below the 

dash board for maximum operating range.  Choose a location above the belt line (dashboard) of the vehicle 

for best reception.  Special considerations must be made for windshield glass as some newer vehicles 

utilize a metallic shielded window  glass that will inhibit or restrict RF reception.  In these vehicles, route 

the antenna toward a rear window location for best reception.  Secure the antenna with double stick tape 

provided.
