I'm installing a Compustar 6200 Brain with the RF-P1B-SS and BLADE-AL bypass..

I have the wiring diagram for both the vehicle and for the BLADE-AL.. I'm a little confused as to what all I need to connect..

Is all that I need to hook up what is shown below from the BLADE-AL guide?

According to it all that I would be hooking up to the actual vehicle would be the IGN, the CANH, the CANL, and the parking light wire..

Other than that I would think I just need to hook up my (2) 12V and ground to my brain.. Is that right?

Sorry but it's been a few years since I've done installs and I've never used a Blade.

Appreciate any help!

has the blade-al been flashed for your specific vehicle?
never done a 2011 TC but based off the wiring the blade-al will take care of everything for you.

just the power/grounds from the 6pin main harness to the compustar is needed, and follow wiring diagram for blade-al

Pretty much. From the CM6200 the two Red +12V power, Black to Chassis Ground, Gray/Black to Hood Pin, and White to Horn ( optional ).

Here are some pics :

You can fuse down the CM6200 power to 10 Amps ( each ) and connect to this wire :

Thanks a lot for these pics.. Where are the pictures in the first two pictures in relation to vehicle location?

I can't believe that's all you have to hook up! That's the least amount of wires I've ever had to do.. Awesome!

The Ignition and CAN wires are under the drivers dash coming down from the ignition switch. Here is another picture that is further back ( and shows the Horn wire ) for a better perspective.

When you remove the lower dash panel ( 3 torx screws ) and the metal knee plate ( 4 torx screws ), it is pretty easy to find.

The Parking Light wire picture was taken looking up behind the switch. The vehicle has a lot of room to work & place the R/S unit. Like metz35 said, "a real slam dunk"!

Anyone know if it would be OK to use a 1N4003 diode? The picture shows a 1N4001 but I actually have a 1N4003 in hand..

Thanks
