White w/ Black Trace Wire: POSITIVE OUTPUT TO SIREN
Route this wire through a rubber grommet in the firewall, and to the siren location.
Connect the white / black wire to the positive wire of the siren. Secure the black ground wire of the siren to
chassis ground.
Black Wire: CHASSIS GROUND
Connect this wire to a solid, metal part of the vehicle’s chassis. Be certain that the connection point is
clean unpainted surface to insure proper grounding.
White Wire: + 12 VDC PULSED PARKING LIGHT OUTPUT (15 AMP MAX)
This wire is provided to flash the vehicle’s parking lights. Connect the white wire to the positive side of one
of the vehicle’s parking lights.
Wiring The 11 Pin Mini Edge Connector:
Dark Green w/ Black Trace Wire: LATCHING OUTPUT / CHANNEL 4
The green w/ black trace wire latches to ground via an independent RF channel from the keychain transmitter.
This is a transistorized, low current ( 300 mA ) output, and should only be used to drive an external relay coil.
This wire provides an immediate ground signal, and stays at ground for as long as the button(s) on the
keychain transmitter remains pressed.
WARNING ! Connecting the dark green w/ black trace wire to the high current switched output of
trunk release circuits will damage the control module.
Connect the dark green w/ black trace wire to terminal 86 of the AS 9256 relay (or an equivalent 30 Amp
automotive relay ), and wire the remaining relay contacts to perform the selected function of channel 4.
NOTE: This wire can alternately be used for a rear window defroster output if in the case a remote start is
added, in this case, this wire can be used to activate the rear window defogger either by a single pulsed
ground, or a 10 minute ground output. This selection is available in bank 3 feature 1. The operation is as
follows: When the Blue/Black alternate output wire is activated to start a vehicle, as long as the alarms
ignition input wire is inactive, if the Green/Black channel wire is activated, there will be an output for pulsed
or 10 minutes as selected in the feature bank.
Dark Blue w/Black Trace Wire: Alternate Channel 3 Output (Dbl. Push Required)
This wire is controlled from the transmitter button programmed to the receiver's channel 3. By double
pressing this the transmitter button, this output will become active for 1 second. This is a transistorized,
low current (300 mA) output, designed to provide an output only when the transmitter is intentionally
operated, such as is the case with remote start add on modules. If you require more than 300mA drive from
this output, you must drive an external relay coil, and arrange the relays contacts to preform the specified
function.
NOTE: Pressing the transmitter button, then immediately pressing and holding it will cause this output to
be active as long as the transmitter button is depressed.
Black w/ White Trace Wire: 300 mA Horn Output
The black w/ white trace wire is provided to beep the vehicle’s horn. This is a transistorized low current
output, and should only be connected to the low current ground output from the vehicle’s horn switch.
If the vehicle uses a + 12 VDC horn switch, then connect the black w/ white trace wire to terminal 86 of the
AS 9256 relay ( or an equivalent 30 Amp automotive relay ), and connect relay terminal 85 to a fused + 12
VDC battery source. Connect relay terminal 87 to the vehicle’s horn switch output, and connect relay
terminal 30 to a fused + 12 VDC battery source.
Orange w/ White Trace Wire: 300 mA GROUND OUTPUT WHEN DISARMED - N. O. STARTER DIS-
ABLE ( Optional Relay Required ).
This wire is provided to control the starter cut relay. Connect the orange w/white wire to terminal 86 of the
relay. Connect relay terminal 85 to an ignition wire in the vehicle that is live when the key is in the on and
crank positions, and off when the key is in the off position. ( This is where the yellow wire from the alarm
should be connected ).
Cut the low current starter solenoid wire in the vehicle, and connect one side of the cut wire to relay
terminal 87. Connect the other side of the cut wire to relay terminal 30.
Note: This is a normally opened starter cut arrangement, and when power is removed from the
security system, the starter disable feature will remain operational, and the vehicle will
not start. Audiovox does not recommend using the Orange w/ White trace wire to interrupt
anything but the starting circuit of the vehicle.
