Manual or Automatic Transmission
This module may be installed on vehicles with manual or automatic transmissions. It is originally configured for manual transmissions
although if the vehicle you are working on is automatic, it is mandatory to make a few quick and easy modifications before the unit is
connected. In the event that the TACH is learned and that the configuration requires changes afterwards, a complete reset will
be necessary before those changes become effective.
To install this unit in a vehicle with a manual transmission:
1. Make sure the Yellow loop on the PC board is connected.
2. Connect the Orange handbrake wire located on the 12-pin harness to the vehicle handbrake switch.
3. Connect the Blue/White (+) door input OR the Grey (-) door input wire located on the 12-pin harness to the vehicle door
pin wire, which monitors all the doors of the vehicle (only use 1 of the 2 door trigger inputs).
4. Make sure the Purple TACH wire is plugged in - the purple TACH wire MUST be hooked up when the module is set for a
manual transmission.
5. Make all your regular connections.
6. Power up the unit by first inserting the 5-pin connector, then the 6-pin connector and finally the 12-pin connector. The
parking lights will flash 4 times to confirm that the unit is in Manual mode.
To install this unit in a vehicle with an automatic transmission:
1. Cut the loop on the pc board (Yellow wire).
2. Make sure the Orange handbrake wire is not connected to any of the vehicle circuits.
3. Make all the regular connections.
4. Power up the unit. The parking lights will flash twice to confirm that the unit is in Automatic mode.
If you wish to put the unit back in Manual transmission mode, reconnect the loop at any time. There is no need to reset the module.
Notice
The manufacturer will accept no responsibility for any electrical damage resulting from improper installation of the product, be that either
damage to the vehicle itself or to the unit. This unit must be installed by a certified technician using all safety devices supplied. Please
note that this guide has been written for properly trained Autostart technicians: a certain level of skills and knowledge is therefore
assumed. Please review the installation guide carefully before beginning any work.
Warning
Before installing the unit, if installing on a vehicle with a manual transmission, test that the OEM Door Switch contacts of the vehicle
work well, and that the Parking Brake system operates properly. If installing on a vehicle with an automatic transmission, test that
the vehicle does not start when the gearshift lever is in the “Drive” position. If it starts in gear, install a manual-transmission remote starter
system instead.
