Notes:
*1 Ignition harness accessible at bottom of fusebox. Pull fusebox up into cowling area to get at wires. Use PURPLE / green to bypass factory starter kill for remote start.  *2 Operates with normal one second ground pulse. These wires also trigger a factory starter kill on the base model cars w/o alarm system. Ignition controlled locking will cause a no-start problem because of this. The PURPLE / brown wire at the door lock pump located in right rear corner of trunk must be grounded for vehicle to start. There is also a single WHITE/ green wire at the dash mounted door lock switch that does not engage the starter kill. No information available at this time about interface with WHITE/ green wire.  *3 Brn/gry at pass. front pin catches both front doors.  Brn/gry/yel picks up rear doors.    *4 Factory security module in trunk (if vehicle has one).  May isolate arm/disarm from locks by using relay. Windows also controlled by locking and unlocking doors with key (convenience module also in trunk). Locate wires at each door harness or at module. Colors are green - black at each front door and at motors in rear door, grn/pur and blk/pur at rear doors, and RR window is grn/pur/blk and blk/pur/wht at module. Could not verify circuit type (A,B).
