Audiovox EM-2201 is an actuator that can be installed in your vehicle's trunk to allow you to open it remotely using a switch button. The device comes with a wiring harness, screws, and a switch button, as well as detailed instructions for installation. Once installed, the actuator will be connected to your vehicle's lock cylinder and latch, and will be activated by the switch button. The actuator can be installed in either the glove box or under the dash, and can be connected to either constant power or ignition-activated power.

CAUTION: If installing EM-2202 Do not close trunk

until installation is complete and you have tested .the

actuator, (failure to do so can result in a locked trunk

with no way to unlock it).

black wire and red wire through and connect them to

the switch button. Push the switch button back Into

the hole.

B. Under dash installation. If you are

installing the switch button under the dash you will

!need to use the switch bracket and snap ring.

Remove a screw under the dash at your desired

location or use the enclosed self-tapping screw and

t install the switch button bracket. Connect the wiring

to the switch button as described in the preceding

paragraph.

STEP 1. (EM-2202 only) (EM-2201 Installers go to

Step 3.) Put towel or rag over the latch striker to

prevent accidental trunk closure.

STEP 2. (EM-2202 only) Remove existing cable

from lock cylinder and latch. On some vehicles this

will require drilling out two pop rivets holding the

cable to the lock cylinder (others will use screws).

STEP 7. Connecting the switch button. Decide first

if you want your switch to have constant power or

ignition activated power. Then taking the blank end

of the red wire you can connect at the fuse box or

splice into an existing wire. Once connected your

switch will be operable upon reconnecting the

positive battery cable.

STEP 3. Install motorized actuator. Some latches

may require removing a break-off tab. Using a Bmm

socket install the actuator on the latch using the

included self-tapping screws. (Do not overtighten

screws as this may bind the actuator). If installing

EM-2202, connect the actuator cable to the lock

cylinder using either pop rivets or screws. Test key

in lock for proper movement.

STEP 8. Test and adjust. With trunk still open have

someone push the switch button while you observe

the actuator. When the switch is activated the

actuator should move. If not, loosen screws holding

the actuator to the latch until the actuator is able to

was depressed. check your connections or if ignition

activated, make sure key is on. Try again. Next

check the key in the lock cylinder as described in

STEP 3.

STEP 9. Finish. Remove or loosen necessary trim

from switch button along the wiring route to the

actuator. Tuck the wiring beneath the trim panels

and tighten.

STEP 4. Route the wiring harness. Decide first

where you wish to mount the switch button (glove

box or under dash). Starting at the actuator, plug the

Remove one of the screws holding the actuator and

place the green ground wire loop on the screw and

tighten back in place. Route the black wire either

through or along the trunk ribbing in the most direct

route to your desired switch button location. You

may have to remove the rear seat. Leave the black

wire loose until STEP 9. NOTE: Without a proper

ground your actuator will not work.

STEP 5. Disconnect positive battery cable.

STEP 6. Install switch button.

A. Glove box installation. If you are installing

your switch in the glove box, many models have

plugged holes already in the glove box. If your

vehicle is so equipped remove the plug. The hole

may be either 3/4" or 1 " in diameter. If the hole is 1 "

diameter you will need to use the optional snap ring

with your switch button. Glove boxes with square

holes or without precut holes will require a 3/4"

diameter hole be cut or an under dash installation

used. (CAUTION: If you choose to cut a hole

remove the glove box insert to prevent damage to

vehicle equipment located behind it}. Once your hole

is located, route the connector terminals on the
