Connector 1 (CN1), 8-Pin
Pin 1
Red - Constant 12V positive (+) power input. This wire must be connected. The proper vehicle
wire will test (+) 12V at all times - while the key is in the off position, the on position and during
crank.
Green/White
Pin 2
– This is a dual-purpose wire that features selectable functionality thru the
trunk/light jumper on the control module. It is either a positive (+) parking light output or positive
(+) trunk output.
Default - Parking light positive (+) output. The proper vehicle wire will test (+) 12V when the
parking light switch is in the on position.
Optional – Trunk release positive (+) output. The proper vehicle wire will test (+) 12V when the
trunk release is triggered.
Red/White
Pin 3
- Constant 12V positive (+) power
input. This wire must be connected. The proper
vehicle wire will test (+) 12V at all times - while
the key is in the off position, the on position and
during crank.
This pin also has a red/white wire that is pre-
wired to a relay. The short violet wire on Pin 85 is
the trigger input wire that determines the (+) 12V
output type of the long blue wire on Pin 30. For
example, connecting the negative (-) Ignition
output from Connector 3, to the short violet wire
coming off of the relay, will provide an additional
(+) 12V Ignition output from the long blue wire.
Pin 4
White – Accessory 12V positive (+) output. This wire must be connected to the vehicle accessory
/ HVAC blower motor wire. The proper wire will test 0V with the key in the off position, (+) 12V
while key is in the on position, 0V while cranking and back to (+) 12V when the key is returned to
the on position.
.
Violet
Pin 5
- 250mA negative (-) output when armed and during remote start (while running). This wire
is pre-wired to the anti-grind/starter-kill relay.
Caution: When this wire is being used to trigger aftermarket accessories it must be diode isolated.
Yellow
Pin 6
- Starter 12V positive (+) output. This wire is pre-wired to Pin 87a of the anti-grind/starter-
kill relay. This wire must be connected for remote start. The proper wire will test 0V with the key in
the off position, 0V while the key is in the on position and (+) 12V during crank.
There are two wires coming off of the relay; yellow/black and yellow. To utilize the anti-grind or
starter-kill features, the vehicles starter wire must be cut in half, otherwise, cut the relay out of the
harness and connect the yellow (Pin 6) directly to the vehicles’ starter wire.

Pin 4 Grey/White - 1 stage negative (-) input. (Warn away)
Connector 11 (CN11), 2-Pin (Pre-wired Thermistor)
Plug optional thermistor into this connector to monitor the vehicles’ temperature. It used display
temperature on two way LCD’s. IMPORTANT: New Thermistor plugs are blue 2 pin connectors on the
CM5 series but old white plug Thermistors will still work.
