Notes:
NOTE: This vehicle is equiped with the EWS II immobilizer system that need to be bypassed when adding a remote start. Use DEI module 555B and refer to directfax document #1056 for additional wiring information.  *1 The general module is a white box located behind the glove box. The 54 pin plug is the center plug, and the 26 pin plug is the one on the left.  *2 The diagnostic plug is on the passengers side of the engine compartment.  *3 On some models, unlock may require a double pulse.  *4 Need to remove the light switch module from the dash and pop off the front cover. A ribbon cable which connects the switch to the module will be exposed. With the switch facing towards you, you need to interrupt the fourth wire from the left with a relay. When interrupted the parking lights will come on. See directfax document # 1055 for wiring information.  *5 The horn relay is above the general module. It is the green relay to the right of an orange relay.  *6 Extended triggers on the door lock wires will roll the windows up/down and open/close the sunroof. Use validity channels to control.

Is up to the installer to test all wires with a DMM whenever possible.
