Girlfriend bought me a toad ai606 alarm to keep me busy for a few days and I can well and truly say i dont know where to start.
I have read through the installation guide printed off the net and have labelled all the relevant wires accordingly, so i dont have to keep looking at the guide and to also give me an idea of how the alarm works.
Well i dont know where to start guys, I have been in there with a multimeter sorting the open door and close door circuits and think i need one wire on the microswitch and one on the light switch when door is open.
I sure on the obvious like, +12v and earth points but as for the rest its a mystery.
Have worked out the door locking system too I think, well i am going to connect one wire to door open and one to door closed but i dont know where the central locking door relay is so am a little stuck there.
Then we come to the immob system, need a live while cranking and am going to use the starter motor for that i think, then a few others. Toad have supplied a 4 branch connector plug for the immob system and was wondering which socket i plug each out put into.

If anyone can give me a hand on this Id be most appreciative, the sooner i get the alarm installed the better

 

there is an old laserline unit that has been hacked about so instead of adapting that loom id rather fit fresh items as the wiring of the old alarm gave me a world of shit when the car refused to start.... turned out to be bridged connections... fecking dodgy electricians imo

 

there a piece of piss to fit mate,going into a S2??green wire to door pin,under the
drivers side speaker,white and yellow for the central locking,there negitive type i think,2.
as for the immob,u cut the connector off and break 2 circuts,normally cranking,which u can find off the barrel,and prob best to cut supply to the fuel pump,same idea,
if u put all the wires up,i will try help and tell u where to put them!

 

ill do that as i go mate, ill get cracking with it in the morning and post up as and when i get stuck... thanks alot mate!

 

and yes going into a s2 mk4 escort turbo

 

its really easy mate,u cut most of the wire off,makes it look a lot simpler

 

thats an idea, orion girl, there are a few options that i wont be installing so they can be cut off and taped up.
What about this central locking door relay or CDL as it says in the instruction manual? Any ideas where that wire goes?

 

scrap that im working to the additional motor locking diagram, says i run one to unlock and lock 2 to earth and 2 to plus 12v

 

oriongirl
yeah u want the positive central locking diagram,2 to 12V cut 2 off and the other 2 u splice into the loom,under the drivers speaker u will find the loom tht goes into the door for the central locking,ones white,ones yellow,theres the 1s u want

 

sorry mate just realised the oriongirl thing lol... the central locking has stopped working now and the car is driving me fucking mad. Had welding work done on the whole underneath, it is leaking water into the boot still, under drivers footwell and i am fed up. The electrics are so bodged from what i have seen there are remenants of 2 other alarms in there, with the shittest wiring i have seen.
Been offered an xr2i and am wondering whether I should cut my losses, transplant the engine and break the rs as bits.... im well frustrated!

 

or just replaced the loom,even easier job!!boot leak will prob just be the rear light seals and front floor the fuse box!

 

thanks mate, i have got the leaks sorted now, was exactly as you said... it all got a bit too much today, you know how it gets when you have been working on your car all week lol.

 

try 5 months
sometimes just gota take a break and come back to it

 

yes mate am thinking about taking a break from it to be honest lol!

 

Exactly
