FTI-CDP1 - BLADE DL-CH7 Remote Start Module Installation Guide

Vehicle Preparation and Coverage Notes

Firmware

Covered vehicles use BLADE-AL (DL) -CH7. Confirm the application, flash the module, and update the firmware controller before installing.

CAN

Type 1 vehicles use CAN connections in the OBD-II harness. The included CAN extension is not necessary for this type of installation.

Lights

Type A parking lights use the 6-pin connector. Ensure that the unused 10-pin connector is properly secured for safety.

Ignition

Common ignition provisions are listed in the BLADE diagram. Ignition is also available in the vehicle BCM (connector C5 / E, pink / white, pin # 27). The hood status wire is available in the vehicle BCM, connector C1, pin # 11 (violet / blue).

Installation and Configuration Notes

1. The Type 1 CAN connection utilizes the harness provision to obtain CAN data from the OBD-II connector.
2. The Type 2 CAN extension cable is not used in covered vehicles. Ensure that all unused connections are properly isolated and secured for safety.
3. Hood pin connection (if necessary).
4. Ignition source jumper: NO CONNECTION is required for this type of installation. Secure the ignition without using jumpers to ensure safety.
5. Ignition connection varies by vehicle. The component locator illustrates the common connection to BCM connector C5 (pin # 27, pink / white). See notes on the coverage page for location details and exceptions.
