Yes, this is Robert Wilkins and what we are going to cover in this segment is basic alarm wiring for Expert Village. Of course every alarm comes with a siren and makes the 6 tones. This should be mounted away from heat, away from moving components up under the hood. We have the wiring harness and we have the CPU or alarm control module. The wire harness plugs in.

The ignition output that starts the car up. The ground _____which supplies power to the starter kill once the alarm is armed you cannot start the vehicle. You have a siren output which powers the siren. Your door lock, your door unlock which locks and unlocks the door and then you have auxiliary outputs which control the window module which put the windows up and down.
