1. Set the vehicle parking brake.

2. Block the drive wheels to prevent vehicle movement.

3. Temporarily disconnect the Brown/Black positive shut down wire from the vehicle's brake switch.

4. Sitting in the vehicle, start the engine using the vehicle's ignition key.

5. Step on the brake pedal and shift the gear selector into reverse.

6. Allow the transmission to shift. When you feel the engine pull, do not move the gear selector just turn the ignition

switch off. DO NOT attempt to remove the key.

7. Keeping the brake pedal depressed, activate the RF transmitter in an attempt to start the vehicle. The car should

not start.

8. Repeat the above test this time move the gear selector to the drive position. If the unit attempts to start, failing this

test, recheck your Yellow Wire's connection. This wire must be connected to the ignition switch side of the Neutral

Start Switch. If the vehicle you are working on does not have an Electrical Neutral Safety Switch, it will be

necessary to reconfigure the Remote Starts Wiring to accommodate this vehicle. The information concerning the

Mechanical Neutral Safety Switch provided below will help you to determine if the vehicle you are working on has

this type of safety switch and will provide alternate wiring methods to accommodate this situation.

WARNING!!

REMEMBER TO RECONNECT THE BROWN/BLACK WIRE TEMPORARILY

DISCONNECTED IN STEP 3.

DO NOT RELEASE THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMER UNTIL YOU CONFIRM THE OPERATION OF

THE NEUTRAL SAFETY START FEATURE.

MECHANICAL NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH CONSIDERATIONS:

Mechanical neutral safety switch configurations differ slightly in that they do not offer the same level of safety when installing a

remote start device. Often when the ignition switch is turned off while the gear selector is in any position other than park or neutral,

the mechanical function will not allow the key to be turned to the start position or be removed from the ignition cylinder. This

configuration prevents mechanical operation while the vehicle is in gear but offers no consideration for electrical operation.

Because of this potential problem, this installation requires the additional connection of a safety wire from the remote start device

to the vehicle Park/Neutral ECM Input or the vehicle key in sensor. This connection will prevent remote start operation if the key is

left in the ignition switch regardless of the gear selector position.

PARK / NEUTRAL ECM INPUT:

The Park / Neutral ECM input is the preferred method of installation. This not only maintains the integrity of the factory circuit, it is also

the easiest to install, providing the vehicle you are working on has this ECM input.

The installation required for this application (shown below), indicates the slight reconfiguration of the control switch wiring and the

addition of a 4000 series diode. Shown is a typical GM Park/Neutral ECM input circuit. To connect the Audiovox remote start unit to

the GM Park / Neutral ECM input:

1. Locate the Orange / Black reference wire in the "C2" connector found at the ECM in GM B Body vehicles or, locate the

equivalent reference wire in the vehicle you are installing the Audiovox Remote Start Unit in.

2. Connect the Cathode, (Striped) end, of a 4000 series diode to this reference wire.

3. Connect the Anode, (Non Striped) end, of the diode to one side of the Remote Start enable switch.

4. Connect the other side of the enable switch to the Black/White enable input wire of the Remote Start unit.

The reference diagram below shows a typical GM B Body ECM reference wire and how it is to be connected to the Remote Start

Unit.

KEY IN SENSOR CIRCUITS:

If the vehicle you are working on does not have or you cannot locate the ECM reference wire, there are two alternatives

available. Although not preferred, the vehicle Key In Sensor may be reconfigured to allow a margin of safety and will

prevent the vehicle with a Mechanical Neutral Start Switch from starting in gear.
