Car Alarm Installation
 
 
  • Mount the siren to a solid metal surface under the hood. Point the horn of the siren down toward the ground so that moisture cannot collect inside it. Drill a hole through a rubber grommet in the firewall of the car and feed the siren's wire through that hole into the passenger compartment of the car.
  • Connect the alarm's power wire directly to the car's battery. Feed the wire through the rubber grommet on the firewall and into the passenger compartment of the car.
  • Put a fuse on the power wire next to the battery. Check the installation manual for the fuse size.
  • Mount the shock sensor as described in the manual.
  • Drill a hole in the dash where you intend to place the LED status indicator. Feed the LED's wire through that hole and place the double-sided mounting tape to the back of the LED and place it over the hole in the dash.
  • Locate the wires that work the car's power door locks.
  • Connect the door-lock relay to the lock/unlock wires and connect the alarm wire to the relay in the manner described by the tech advisor.
  • Using the advice of the tech advisor, locate the wire that works the courtesy light if the alarm has current sensing.
  • Connect the current sensing line from the alarm to the courtesy light wire.
  • Locate the factory door triggers if the alarm does not have current or voltage sensing.
  • Connect the factory door trigger to the alarm.
  • Find the starter wire on the steering column some inches below the starter switch. Cut the line and connect the starter disable relay. Connect the starter disable wire from the alarm to the relay.
  • Mount the valet switch somewhere under the dash.
  • Connect all the wires to the proper inputs and outputs of the alarm module.
  • Mount the module to a sturdy surface under the dash using the drill, screw bit and screws.
  • Use the tie wraps to secure the wires of the harness and stuff it back under the dash.
  • Arm the alarm and test its performance.
