In this video we complete all of the wiring for the basic system. I still have a proximity sensor and hood tilt sensor to wire in, but I'll do that later. The final wiring demonstrated in this video is the two power connections to the OBD-II port, the ground connection, the parking lights tap, and wiring in the horn, hood pin switch, and the siren. The only thing left to do after this is basically plug in the brain of the Omega Excalibur 1775 and run through a couple of easy self-programming steps for the system and the remote start capability. We're so close to being done!!! Next video gets you operational, I promise!!!!
Here's the playlist containing all of the videos for this install:

PLEASE READ - IMPORTANT INFO!
So you want to install an alarm system and remote start into your Jeep Wrangler? Well… this is the page for you! What follows below is the complete video series regarding the selection, overview, installation, setup, and howtos of the Omega Excalibur AL-1775-3DB security system and remote start I installed in my 2015 Jeep Wrangler with automatic transmission. If you happen to have the same vehicle (including similar years) then this page should be a step-by-step guide for you. If you have a manual transmission, there will be some additional steps and wiring for you, and what exactly depends on what year your Jeep is. I tried to mention some of those things throughout the video series. If you have a 2017 or newer, also note that the access to the ignition switch harness is a little different. I’ll also try and help you out there.
Please watch all of the videos BEFORE YOU START your own installation. This is important because I may point out things in later videos that would be helpful to know about early on. It’s just part of the process. Once I get into the install, I know more about what exactly needs to be done, versus what I believe needs to be done. A great example of this is the wiring for the parking lights. In the wiring prep video, I told you that you needed three wires for this because that was the industry standard based on how the Jeeps were wired. However, in actual testing during the install (and working closely with the tech guys at Omega Research and Development) I found that only one wire was really needed. So I modified the harness from the original 9 wires, down to 7!! BONUS!!!

Another great video CPO! What crimper are you using? It looks like a really nice one.
ReplyDeleteThanks, David. It's this one: http://amzn.to/2hfGm5H $25 and it works well. I researched a bunch of reviews before settling on it.
ReplyDeleteAs I get older and have more experience with aftermarket parts, it’s just something else to go wrong, especially electronics. Good info but I’ll stick with stock equipment. Besides I have the lifetime warranty.
ReplyDeleteAwesome...will watch it tonight at work.
ReplyDeleteDid I miss the video for the parking brake wire for the manual transmission?
ReplyDeleteNo...you didn't miss it. I mentioned it somewhere...but haven't done anything passed that. I will be installing a proximity sensor in the lid of the center console, and when I do that I will be removing the center console and can show where that wire goes. It's really easy tho... when you remove the center console there is a single wire with a blade connector going into the parking brake. You are just going to tap into that wire. When I pull the console, I'll trace that wire to see if there is an easier place to tap into it rather than pulling the console.
ReplyDeleteWas going to ask the same 😀
ReplyDeleteHey CPO for the the Parking Brake connection you don’t have to remove the center console. Remove the transmission shift knob by turning it counter clockwise. Then lift up on the front part of the center console to release the clips and then the lift up by the front cup holder area. Then have a helper hold the console up until you make your connection. Then on the driver’s side of the console you will find a large bundle of wires coming from under the dash. Open the bundle up and find the Dark Green/White wire. To test this wire with a Digital Multi Meter put one test lead to any good ground and the other to the wire. When you raise the parking brake you should be reading continuity. Do the usual military style splice to the Black/White wire (Neutral Safety - Input) from the Excalibur harness and your good to go!
ReplyDeleteYa I wanted to ask this too! Looks good!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Thanks. that's exactly the info I needed (that I was going to trace out myself)!
ReplyDeleteCheck out Joe K's comment... He offers some help on the parking brake wire!
ReplyDeleteCPO On the 18 pin harness you left 3 wires for the horn. I think you connected the blue/black one to the horn where are the other 2 going and do you need them?
ReplyDeleteOnly two for the horn. one went to power on the OBDII port, and the other went to the horn. I explained that part in the OBDII section at around 1:36 Let me know if that makes sense
ReplyDeleteInstead of connecting the red and the purple/black wire to the OBD11, can I connect this to a constant power HuB that I have inside the cabin?
ReplyDeleteSunny Sharif yep... Any 12v always on power source. I tried to make the install something that even someone with a stock Jeep can do... So the OBDII port was just an easy place that anyone can find and everyone will have. Use whatever you have.
