a) Place T-Tap on vehicle wire.

b) Using pliers, close and crimp T-Tap around vehicle wire.

c) Insert harness wire with male spade terminal and into T-Tap.

1. Plug the wire harness connectors into the remote start module before mounting.

Ensure all connectors are properly locked into position.

2. Route the remote start harness 6-pin male and female ignition connectors upward to the ignition switch.

Connect the male 6-pin M15 ignition connector and plug in the corresponding remote start harness connectors.





3. Route the remote start harness 6-pin male and female key-in sense connectors along the factory harness toward the factory 6-pin connector located to the right of the steering column.

Connect the male 6-pin M37 connector and plug in the corresponding remote start harness connectors.





4. Route the remote start harness 4-pin male and female brake switch connectors under the steering column to the brake switch.

Connect the male 4-pin CHG 39 connector and plug in the corresponding remote start harness connectors.

Secure the factory male connector and the remote start harness female connector to the remote start harness with one (1) small wire tie Trim off excess wire tie.





5. Route the 26-pin male and female connectors Red/Black and Gray wires toward the fuse box.

Attach the Red/Black wire to the #16 pin of the 20-pin I/P-F male connector.

If Removed: Using pliers crimp a T-Tap on the Red/Black wire located in pin #16 of the I/P-F male connector.

Connect the Red/Black (Hood Ajar Input) wire from the remote start harness to the Red/Black wire (Pin #16 of the I/P-F connector) by engaging the T-Tap.

If Removed: Using pliers crimp a T-Tap on the Green/Orange wire located in pin #26 of the I/P-E male connector.

Connect the Green/Orange (Tachometer Input) wire from the remote start harness to the Green/Orange wire (Pin #26 of the I/PE connector) by engaging the T-Tap.





8. Connect the factory male 26-pin BCM-FK connector at the fuse box and plug in the corresponding remote start harness connectors.





9. Route the portion of the remote start harness containing the Yellow/Black wire, Lt. Blue wire and the 22-pin male and female connectors along the right side of the fuse box to the BCM (Located on the back side of the fuse box)

Locate the Lt. Blue wire in pin #21 of the 26-pin BCM-ML male connector.

If Removed: Using pliers, crimp a T-Tap on the Lt. Blue wire located in pin #21 of the BCM-ML male connector.

Connect the Lt. Blue (Parking Light Output) wire from the remote start harness to the Lt Blue wire (Pin #21 of the BCM-ML connector) by engaging the T-Tap.

Engage the 26-pin BCM-ML connector from the backside of the BCM.





10. Locate Yellow/Black wire located in pin #2 (arrow) of the BCM-MM connector. Using pliers, crimp a T-Tap on Yellow/Black wire.

Connect Yellow/Black (Driver's Door Unlock Output) wire from remote start harness from Yellow/Black wire (pin #2 of BCM-MM connector) by engaging T-Tap.





11. Connect the factory male 22-pin BCM-MN connector at the BCM and plug in the corresponding remote start harness connectors.

Secure the Lt. Blue (Parking Light Output) wire, Yellow/Black (Driver Door Unlock Output) wire and the 22-pin male and female BCM-MN remote start harness connectors to the remote start wire harness with one (1) small wire tie. Trim the wire tie.





12. Route the Black wire with ring terminal down along the factory wire harness to the factory ground location.

Install 10 mm hex bolt. Position the Black wire with ring terminal over the bolt and reinstall with factory ground wires.





13. Connect the disarm/programming button to the corresponding remote start module connector (if disconnected).

Secure the disarm/programming button to the remote start harness with three (3) small wire ties. mm off excess wire ties.

Ensure disarm/programming button is secured to the remote start harness in a manner that allows for future serviceability.

Secure the remote start harness to the existing factory harness with one (1) large wire tie. Trim the wire tie.





14. Secure the remote start harness with three (3) large wire ties. Trim off excess from wire ties.





15. Secure the Black ground wire to the existing factory harness with one (1) small wire tie. Trim the wire tie.





16. Verify all connections are secure as per the installation instructions.

Turn ignition the key to the ON position.

Reconnect the negative battery cable. If the horn begins sounding, press the disarm/programming button with the ignition "ON" to disarm the system.

Battery cable terminal torque spec:
