In our time there are a lot of ways to protect the car from the hijacking, however, the most common is the use of alarm. Full-time signaling systems in new transport have the simplest package of functions, and, therefore, cannot provide the necessary level of car safety. As a result, the installation of alarm is becoming more urgent, which has greater functionality. Specialized alarms actually exclude the possibility of the car of the car and reduce the probability of penetration into it. About this further in the article.

Car alarm, brief overview

Automotive alarm system - a device designed to protect the vehicle from theft, as well as from theft of objects that are in the car. On unauthorized penetration into the car, the alarm is noticing a car owner and surrounding with sound and light signals.

To date, there are such types of auto alarms:

1. Speakers - individual elements are placed in several places of the automotive salon.
2. Monoblock - the main elements are in one place.

Monoblock alarms are more compact and simple in the installation, but the separated are more reliable, because to neutralize all the components of the alarm, the attacker will have to work significantly.

In addition, three main types of auto alarms can be distinguished:

1. Simple and inexpensive systems that include the minimum number of additional components and have only the most necessary functions - blocking the start of the motor, sound alarm, visual alert.
2. Security systems that make it possible to innocent feedback, and also allow the car owner to remotely receive data on the state of the car, to run the motor to warm up and some other features.
   
3. Full dear security complexes that have a complete set of warning systems and anti-theft functions, and also have the ability to work autonomously, regardless of whether there is a current in the onboard network.

Car alarm, which is included in the basic version

The alarm package includes the following components:

1. Sound siren.
2. Control panels - key rings.
   
3. End wire for trunk or hood.
4. Sensor shock with sensitivity setting.
5. Light bulb-indicator with wire.
6. Start lock relay complete with wires.
7. Alarm disable button.
8. Central control unit.
9. A set of wires with clips connectors to the control unit.
10. Instructions for installing alarm on a car with a description of the configuration.
11. User guide.

Depending on the cost of the device, the package may not include a particular element that can be purchased separately. The same applies to the mechanisms of the Central Castle.

Tools assistants, appliances, consumables

1. End key.
2. Cross screwdriver to dismantle panels.
3. Lighter.
4. Knife for cutting wires.
   
5. Double-sided tape.
6. Black tape.
7. Porolan, in which the alarm unit should be pack - black or gray. It is advisable to choose not very fat.
8. Additional wires, since the wires that are included in the kit may not be enough.
9. Electronic multimeter.

Profi advice, why you need to use a multimeter, and not the principle of "light bulbs" when the alarm outputs are connected

Never use the "light bulb" principle to find the wires you need. In a car, such a check can lead to the output of the generator relay, closing airbags and much more.

Light alarm, connection methods

Light alarm system must be connected to the light of the main headlights or to turn signals. In the latter case, it is necessary to find wires of turning pointers in the alarm switch, in the first - the connection is carried out to the relay control wire. Practice indicates that the light alarm is better to connect to the wires of turning signs, and not to dimensions.

Central Castle Auto, how to connect the signal to the central lock in accordance with the instruction of the car alarm manufacturer

Connection to the central lock is implemented according to various schemes, which depends on the design of the device. It is located in the car's cabin in a hidden place. To find it, first of all should be examined by the electricity of the vehicle. Find the connection point - as a rule, this is the CZ control unit. It can be located in places:

1. On the driver's door.
2. On the central dashboard.
3. In the cabin there may be a CZ control button.

There are also such models of cars where there is no central castle. In this case, it must be installed.

Car alarm, connecting door opening contacts

You should define a connection point to unlocking doors. It is possible to find this point in the electrical scheme to your car. In order to save time, you can also visit the specialized forums and search for a hint there.

Sensors of the alarm impact, how to make adjustment

The shock sensors should be as toughly fixed to the vehicle body to improve vibration perception. It is forbidden to mount them at the air ducts, since in this case the alarm will be triggered as a result of the movement of air flows and with a strong heating in the open sun. Mounting sensors are needed using screws.

To configure, pre-disable the security mode and log in to programming mode. In the memory of the device, all changes will be preserved. The sensitivity of old car alarms is regulated using a special screw, in newer models, this procedure is carried out with buttons. The sensitive scale has the presence of several levels that determine the degree of response alarm.

When adjusting, the weight of the vehicle is taken into account, the method of fastening the security system and much more.

Engine lock using ignition wire

As a rule, the motor lock is carried out using a ignition wire leaving their lock. Without removing the six-contact lock connector, ring it to find the ignition wire.

To connect, you should find a wire in which the voltage is plus 12 B when the ignition key in the lock is on the "ass" label. When turning the key to the Start state, the plus must disappear. This wire should be blocked.

To determine it correctly, pull out the connector from the lock and close the permanent plus jumper, and the second jumper jump the starter and the constant plus. If the car starts, then this is the very wire. In addition, as soon as the car started, immediately remove the jumper. The cord needs to be cut, insert the connector, then check. Vehicle should not start. Then disconnect the signaling wires and the ignition lock. Just do not forget to install the relay.

Tips Prof.

As you can see, independently set the alarm on the car is quite simple, albeit a bit more difficult. It is worth noting that one of the most important points is the choice of car alarm. Since in our time the system of security systems is presented very widely, it should be sufficiently responsible for this issue. Choose only high-quality devices from well-known manufacturers, otherwise your desire to save can fly to you in a penny.
