Wiring Diagram | Perodua Kenari Alarm

Want remote start or a better siren? Use this pinout to connect a new universal alarm:

| New Alarm Wire | Connect to Kenari Pin | |-------------------|------------------------| | +12V constant | A2 (Red/Black) | | Ground | A4 (Black) | | Ignition input | A3 (Green) | | Lock output (-) | A5 (Blue/Red) | | Unlock output (-) | A6 (Blue/Yellow) | | Door trigger (-) | A1 (White/Black) |
