This wire supplies a 200 mA (-) output that can be used to honk the vehicle horn. It outputs a single pulse when
locking the doors with the remote, and two pulses when unlocking with the remote. This wire will also output
pulses for 30 seconds when the Panic Mode is activated. If the vehicle has a (+) horn circuit, an optional relay
can be used to interface with the system, as shown below.
Before connecting this wire, remove the supplied fuse. Connect to the battery positive terminal or the constant
12V supply to the ignition switch as described in the Finding the Wires You Need section of this guide.
NOTE: Always use a fuse within 12 inches of the point you obtain (+)12V. Do not use the 10A fuse
in the harness for this purpose. This fuse is intended to protect the module.
When the system receives the code controlling Channel 2, for longer than 1.5 seconds, the RED/WHITE wire will
supply an output as long as the transmission continues. This is often used to operate a trunk/hatch release or
other relay-driven function. This output can also be programmed to provide the following types of output: Instant
validity, latched, latched-reset with ignition, 30-second timed, or second unlock output. (See Features Description
section of this guide for details.)
IMPORTANT! Never use this wire to drive anything except a relay or low-current input! The transis-
torized output can only supply 200 mA of current. Connecting directly to a solenoid, motor, or other
high-current device will cause it to fail.
