2. Turn the steering wheel fully to the right to expose a Phillips screw on the steering column cover. Remove this screw.
3. Turn the steering wheel fully to the left to expose another Phillips screw. Remove this screw.
4. Release the steering column tilt lever and adjust the steering column all the way up and out.
5. Gently pull down on the lower section of the steering column cover to separate the upper and lower halves.

Dash Panel Removal:

1. Locate the steering lock module plug on the underside of the steering wheel assembly.
2. Remove the steering lock plug by pressing the tab and plug it into the matching plug on the T-harness assembly.
3. Take the male plug from the T-harness assembly and plug it back into the module in the car.
4. Locate the ECU behind the left side of the dash. The only plug to work with at the ECU is the one identified in your product's specific instructions.
5. Your T-harness assembly has two sets of large white plugs, labeled 'A' and 'B'. For this installation, use only the 'B' plugs. (Note: Some T-harnesses may only have 'B' plugs).
6. Remove the tape from the 'B' plug and go back to the ECU plug identified earlier.
7. Release the ECU plug by pressing gently on the tab and pulling it out.
8. Plug the vehicle's ECU plug into the receptacle on the T-harness.
9. Take the male plug from the T-harness and plug it into the ECU in the spot you just vacated. Give it a gentle tug to ensure it's secure.
10. Your T-harness assembly may have three small plugs labeled 'EVO ALL', 'EVO 1', and 'DOOR LOCK'. These plugs are not used in this installation.

4. Програмування модуля

1. Locate the data link cable on your T-harness assembly (two small black plugs, each with four wires).
2. Take the end of the data link cable that does NOT have the locking tab.
3. While holding down the program button on the side of the EVO module, plug the data link cable into the module.
4. Continue to hold the program button while the LEDs start to cycle (blue, then yellow, then red). Release the button when ONLY the blue LED is lit. If a different color LED is lit or LEDs are flashing, unplug the data link cable and restart the process.
5. Insert the 20-pin white connector, the 6-pin red connector, and the 5-pin white connector into the EVO module. The blue LED should remain lit.

4. Bundle up and stow all wires behind the dash, in front of the ECU, ensuring they do not interfere with any moving parts, especially the emergency brake assembly.
5. Reassemble the dash and steering column covers in reverse order of removal.
6. Replace the hex nut at the bottom of the dash.
7. Perform one final test of the system. Ensure the hood is completely closed, as the system will not remote start if the hood is open.
