CONNECTING THE POWER AND GROUND
1. Connect the RED wire from the harness to a constant 12 volt supply or to the wire you ran from
the positive battery post (if no constant 12 volt supply was found at the ignition switch harness).
2. Connect the BLACK wire from the harness to a clean chassis ground, usually a steel automotive
body part connected to the negative side of the battery.
CONNECTING IGNITION POWER
1. Connect the YELLOW wire from the harness to the wire market Ignition Power.
FINDING THE PARKING LIGHT WIRE (optional - included)
To have the parking lights flash when using keyless entry or during a violation, you must connect
the 1402 to the vehicle’s parking lights.
1. Locate the wire harness coming from the back of your vehicle’s light control. If the control is
on your vehicle’s steering column, the harness probably joins several wiring harnesses.
2. Use the vehicle’s wiring color code to find the parking light wire. Connect this wire to the
parking light wire usually located under the hood going to your parking lights.
3. Turn on the parking lights. Probe the wires. The test light should light indicating 12 volts
only when the parking lights are on.
4. After you locate the wire, use a piece of masking tape to mark it with its function (Parking
Lights).
CONNECTING THE PARKING LIGHT WIRE
Connect the BROWN wire from the wiring harness to the wire marked “Parking Lights”.
CONNECTING THE NEGATIVE OUTPUT #1
THE WHITE/ORANGE wire is used to operate a remote car starter,
window roll-up module, etc. for as long as transmitter button
#2 is depressed. NOTE: A SPST or SPDT relay must be used if
you want to convert the negative signal to positive or if the
device you’re controlling draws more than 200ma. If you’re not
sure how much amperage is being drawn, add the relay. This
negative output is only rated for 200ma (1/5 amp). CAUTION:
Overloading these outputs is not considered a warranty related
repair.
CONNECTING THE NEGATIVE OUTPUT #2
The RED/WHITE wire is used to operate the power trunk
release, power sun roof, window roll-up module, etc. for
as long as transmitter button #3 is depressed. NOTE: A 30 amp relay must be used since this negative
output is only rated for 200 ma (1/5 amp). Since most power trunk releases are positive controlled
and draw 5 to 6 amps, this relay handles the load and also can convert the release signal from
negative to positive polarity.
INSTALLING THE FLASHING LED STATUS INDICATOR (optional)
The L.E.D. indicator installs inside your vehicle and should be installed
as high as possible and in view from all windows. Drill a 1/4 inch
mounting hole in the dash panel or use the supplied mounting bracket
to hold the L.E.D. status indicator in place.
CONNECTING THE LED STATUS INDICATOR
Plug the LED status indicator into the connector
on the right side of the main header.
CONNECTING THE MAIN WIRING HARNESS TO THE MODULE
Carefully plug the main harness into the 1402 module. DO NOT plug the harnesses into the control
module until all connections have been made. Be careful to line up the pins on the unit with the wiring
harness plug (lip up - Red wire to the right). Failure to do this will cause severe damage to the unit
and possibly to the vehicle.
CONNECTING THE STARTER DISABLE (Additional hardware needed)
Locate the cranking wire at the base of the steering column. When testing, the cranking wire will
show 12 DC only when the key is in the cranking position. Once located, cut the wire in two. Try
to crank the engine, it should not crank. Next, mark both ends of the cranking wire. The wire
running back into the steering column, mark “Key Side”, and the wire running toward the engine,
mark “Starter Side”.
