PRECAUTIONS
USING YOUR TEST PROBE
Congratulations, you have purchased one of the most advanced remote starter systems ever made. Your new
remote starter is a technological breakthrough utilizing the most advanced, state-of-the-art technology
and components. It is computer controlled and manufactured in the U.S.A. The dependability and variety of
features make Bulldog Security the leader in the industry. Enjoy your new remote starter for years to
come!
This remote system is designed to start your vehicle by sending a command signal from the remote transmitter
or by programming automatic temperature start. It is required that your installation be done in a well-
ventilated area. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that the remote system is not used to
start the vehicle in an undesired location.
It is recommended that a carbon monoxide detector be installed in the living area near the location where
the vehicle may be garaged.
Since there are many different makes and models of vehicles, for a more complete wiring chart, visit our
website, www.bulldogsecurity.com to access your vehicle’s colors and location of wires.
Read this manual thoroughly BEFORE starting the installation. Most newer vehicles may have a factory anti-
theft system. If you vehicle is equipped with this system, an additional module, Part #781 or #791, will
be required. Contact 800-659-0764 to order this item. Please do not skip any steps. Mount the control
module under the driver’s dash inside the vehicle after all connections have been made. Do not mount the
control module in the engine compartment.
TACH/TACHLESS OPERATION
In most cases the decision to go with tachless mode will save time during the installation. If your vehicle
is hard-starting then you should use tach mode.
MAKE SURE YOU PLACE THE WARNING STICKER UNDER THE HOOD.
This system is designed for use with vehicles equipped with fuel-injected,
gasoline engines with automatic transmissions only.
SAFETY FIRST!
Never remotely start your vehicle indoors, with the keys in the ignition or unless the transmission
is in park. A periodic safety check is recommended to ensure that your system is in proper working
order.
DO NOT use mechanical wiring connections, such as crimp or snap together wire connectors.
Instead, follow the instructions on page 3-4.
DO NOT disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft-coded radio or is equipped with
an airbag. Doing so may cause a warning light to be displayed which may require a trip to the
dealer to be corrected.
DO NOT leave the interior or exterior lights on for an extended period of time as it may cause
battery drain. Remove the dome light fuse from the vehicle’s fuse box. NOTE: Starter systems do
not work well with a partially discharged battery.
WARNING!
GENERAL MOTORS REAR WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES AND DODGE DAKOTAS
All General Motors rear wheel drive vehicles and Dodge Dakotas built prior to 1996 do not have
an electrical neutral safety switch. They have a mechanical neutral safety switch. The mechanical
neutral safety switch operates as follows.
a)The key will only turn to the start position when the gear selector is in park or neutral.
b)The key can only be removed from the ignition switch when the gear selector is in the park
position.
You must use special precautions with this system.
To operate your test probe, connect the black clip to a good chassis ground. Connect the red clip to a good
12V positive source. If the test probe is connected correctly, both the green and the red lights will be dimly
illuminated. If a positive source is probed, the red light will glow bright and the green light will go out.
If a negative source is probed, the green light will glow bright and the red light will go out.
