Connecting the brain to your parking lights

1. The vehicle wire color sheet will tell you where to find your vehicle's parking light wire, although the easiest place to find the right wire is at the parking light switch. If you'd rather locate the wire under the dash, make sure you don't use one that's tied into a dimmer circuit. Test the wire with your multimeter, and see if the voltage drops when you dim your dash lights.
2. Tap into the proper wire and make the necessary connection at the brain. This will ensure that your parking lights flash when the alarm is activated.

Starter Disable

The starter disable feature is perhaps one of the most important parts of any security system. It ensures that, if a thief does manage to force their way into your vehicle, they won't be able to drive it away. And, now that car alarms are so common that they've nearly become unnoticeable (I mean really, when was the last time that you actually turned to investigate when you heard an alarm going off?), that's the key to some real peace of mind.

To connect the starter disable feature, you'll need to tap into your ignition system. Some cars allow you to do this by plugging into a central relay box, but others require you to splice into the wire.

1. The starter interrupt is a relay, built into most systems we offer, which ties in between the ignition switch and the starter solenoid. The starter solenoid main power feed draws a huge amount of current, so the solenoid feed wire going to the starter cannot be spliced into. The wire that you tie into is the small wire going to the starter solenoid that tells the solenoid to energize when you turn your key to the "start" position. The vehicle wire color sheet supplied with this guide tells you where to find this "starter" wire (not to be confused with the ignition wire).
2. Test the wires at the steering column to find the one that reads 12 volts only when the starter is cranking (not while the engine is running). Following the instructions supplied with the alarm, splice the starter disable wire (or outboard relay) into this wire.

Properly spliced starter disable wire.
