Gday guys my daughter has presented me with an all black car alarm she would like fitted to her car I have no idea what breed it is, but it looks similar to these ones, google (Australian / New Zealand Standards Car Engine Immobilisers [LA8970])
Now having said that the instructions are very basic and each wire is numbered, most easy, a couple confusing, the confusing ones are.....
wires 1 & 3 primary immob. (max 30A) wires 4 & 6 secondary immob. (max 30A) wires 2 & 5 Tertiary immob. (max 30A) (2 & 5 have a relay plug attached to it) wire 19 ext. sensor (-trigger)
So where would these hook up to??
the others are fairly simple but I will list the rest just in case with a comment in brackets if I'm a little unsure..... :-/
wire: 9 negative when armed (still just hooked up to the body ?) 11 spare ground (??) 10 ignition (constant power supply when ignition is in start/run position) 13 door switch - trigger 14 door switch + trigger 7 ground 15 unlock pulse output -500mA max. 16 lock pulse output -500mA max. (no central locking fitted) 18 R/L indicator 12 battery + 20 Trunk release 17 siren 8 Ground
It also comes with a little box unsure if its a shock sensor or movement sensor has an LED light, adjuster and a hole in it plus 3 wires black, red and white. Black and red are easy but white??
There you have it......lol....any help would be appreciated to save me having to go to an auto electrician and I don't think I will get out of not fitting it ! :-(

Most times these are open circuit when the imobiliser is armed and closed when disarmed, depending on the car cutting power to the coil, fuel pump, starter motor or ecu will imobilise the car
wire 19 ext. sensor (-trigger) Possibly where glass sensor connects
So where would these hook up to??

wire: 9 negative when armed. This wire will be earthed by the imobiliser when armed, do not connect direct to earth 11 spare ground (??) 10 ignition (constant power supply when ignition is in start/run position)
13 door switch - trigger. Connect this to your door switch 14 door switch + trigger 7 ground 15 unlock pulse output -500mA max. 16 lock pulse output -500mA max. (no central locking fitted) 18 R/L indicator 12 battery + 20 Trunk release 17 siren 8 Ground

Sounds like a glass break sensor, the white wire goes to the alarm.

Thanks for that its been a while since I have played around with an alarm system I will give it a shot, Im still a little unsure why wires 2 & 5 Tertiary immob. (max 30A)(2 & 5 have a relay plug attached to it) it has a relay plug in it and what the mean by "TERTIARY" lol. but nothing ventured nothing gained :-) |
