Thank you so much Tommy for the wiring colors. This weekend I plan to access the SJB and explore a little before doing the install. Now I just need to find out which wires will actually be needed to hook up the Avital alarm.

thanks.

1, -500 mA ground when armed, 2. (+)default/(-) light flash output, 3. (-)200mA domelight supervision output, 4. (-) door trigger input, 5. (-) instant trigger (hood/trunk pin), 6. (+) door trigger input, 7. (-) chassis ground input, 8. (+) ignition input, 9. (+) siren input, 10. (+) 12v constant power input, 11. (-) 200mA auxilliary channel/delayed accessory output, 12. (-) horn honk output, 13. arm input, 14. disarm defeat input, 15. disarm input, 16. (+) trunk release/sensor shunt input, 17. light flash monitor input, 18. (-) lock, (+) lock output, 19.

Please advise which of the numbers I will need to use for the connections. I know some of them that I need but not sure about some of the arm/unarm/door hookups. thanks again, Jon

This has been helpful, except for the starter wire. I have a different help sheet that says where the starter wire is in the Smart Junction Box. It says it is a blue/white wire coming out of Pin 32 on the 52-pin Black plug. There are 2 blue/white wires nearby, but nothing is coming out of Pin 32. Help if you can, Thanks.!
If you have an update for the 2013 mustang, not just the 2012, that would be very helpful too! :D
Thanks again.
