Introduction
To install the SKSNG205D4 or SKSNG222D4 SmartKey Starter® remote start, a jumper wire and pin installation is required. Please read information below and entire guide before attempting this installation. Mid City Engineering will install the jumper free of charge with purchase of SKSNG205D4 or SKSNG222D4. Please call 312-421-1114 ext. 1 or email sales@midcityengineering.com for more information
DO NOT ATTEMPT THE JUMPER / PIN INSTALLATION IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE PROPER SOLDERING EQUIPMENT OR EXPERIENCE. A TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED SOLDERING IRON AND BOARD LEVEL SOLDERING EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED . SEE BELOW DOCUMENT FOR EXAMPLES OF THE CORRECT SOLDERING EQUIPMENT TO USE. THE EIS HAS COMPONENTS THAT ARE STATIC SENSITIVE- BE SURE TO USE PROPER GROUNDING TECHNIQUES WHILE WORKING ON THE EIS.
DO NOT OVERHEAT COMPONENTS. RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURE IS 750* DEGREES F
