Installation Instructions JET V-Force Power Control Module 1. Mounting the V-Force Computer Using the supplied Velcro, locate the V-Force in a convenient location under the dash by removing the backing from the Velcro and pressing firmly to ensure a good contact. TIP: Clean the mounting area with alcohol or another nonabrasive cleaner to ensure the Velcro adheres properly. 2. Disconnect the Negative Battery Cable Locate the battery under the hood and remove the negative battery cable. 3. Connecting the V-Force + 12 V Power Connection (RED WIRE) Locate the vehicles fuse box. It is normally located on the drivers side of the vehicle under the dash or in the driver s side kick panel. Included in the V-Force installation parts you have two brass fuse adaptors. Depending on which type of fuses your vehicle uses, select the one that fits your type of fuse (early models use round fuses, late models use plastic integral fuses). Connect the fuse adaptor to a fuse for the +12V source that is only on when the key is in the on position. Connect the RED WIRE from the V-Force to the fuse adaptor you just installed. TIP: Most vehicles have a spare location for accessories, this is a good source for power, but make sure it is only on when the key is in the on and run positions. 4. Routing the Wiring Harness: The wiring harness must be routed through the firewall to reach under the hood. Under the dash near the location that you mounted the V-Force, locate an existing plug or wiring harness that goes out under the hood and route the V-Force wiring through the firewall. TIP: Make sure the wiring harness does not interfere with any moving parts (i.e.: gas or brake pedal) or touch anything under the hood that produces excessive heat, such as the exhaust system. 5. Connecting the V-Force ground wire (BLACK WIRE) Connect the Black Wire from the V-Force to a suitable ground point. Existing screws or nuts that are attached to metal are a good location for this purpose. Computer Upgrade Packages Pulleys Air/Fuel Meters Boost Cut Eliminators and much, much more! 6. Connecting the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) Wire (BROWN WIRE) Using the V-Force wiring pin out chart (pgs. 4 to 7) locate the correct wiring color and location of the TPS for your vehicle. After locating the TPS you will note that the TPS has THREE wires going to it. Crimp a RED scotchlock connector (this is the type that wraps around the wire and is then crimped closed to pierce the wire) to the wire color that matches the chart for your vehicle. Plug the BROWN WIRE from the V-Force into the scotchlock connector. TIP: The TPS requires only a single wire, from the V-Force it will be necessary to pull this wire out of the black cable cover so the other wires will reach the MAP sensor. -1- -10-
NOTES 7. Connecting the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) Input Wire (GREY WIRE) Again using the V-Force wiring pin out chart locate the correct wiring color and location of the MAP for your vehicle. After locating the MAP you will note that the MAP has THREE wires going to it. CUT the wire color that matches the chart for your vehicle about 2 inches away from the sensor, leaving enough room to crimp on a new connector. Strip about 1/4 of an inch of insulation off of both ends of the wire that you just cut. Crimp a PINK MALE spade connector to the portion of the wire that is still attached to the MAP Sensor. Plug the GREY WIRE from the V-Force into the MALE connector that is now attached to the MAP wire. 8. Connecting the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) Output Wire (GREEN WIRE) Crimp a PINK FEMALE spade connector to the other portion of the above wire that you previously stripped. Plug the GREEN WIRE from the V-Force into the female connector that you just attached. 9. Securing the wiring harness Using the supplied wire harness cover, cover the TPS wire and route the wiring harness away from any moving engine parts or any exhaust components. With the supplied black cable ties you can now secure the wiring harness away from any moving engine parts or anything that may get hot enough to melt the wiring insulation. SUMMARY RED WIRE = 12 volt power connections - Key on BLACK WIRE = Ground BROWN WIRE = TPS - see chart GREY WIRE = MAP input - see chart GREEN WIRE = MAP output - see chart -2- -9-

Make sure the ON/OFF switch on the V-Force is in the OFF position. This is turned to the left. Start the vehicle, turn the V-Force ON/Off switch to the ON position. This is turned to the right. If the V-Force is operating, the LED lights on the front panel will illuminate. NOTE: Not all the LED lights will be illuminated at an idle, just a few of them. As you accelerate the vehicle, more LED lights will illuminate, indicating that the V-Force is functional. TIP: Don t turn the V-Force off and on while driving. By doing this you are modifying the input signals to the computer and it may cause a trouble code to set in the computers memory.
