I have read through many threads related to the factory OEM alarm installed on some S2k's but haven't found anyone who will provide the model # for the sensor. I have the factory installed alarm and I want to connect a motion sensor where the hood-pin input is.

Is this something I can get through Honda or are there companies that make a sensor that adapts to the stock alarm?

Also, is this something I could expect a standard alarm shop to be able to handle?

Thanks for your help!

 

I sent you a PM about the sensor I used (AU94T). If you let the alarm shop know that the OEM harness has the hood sensor and refer to figure 20 of the installation instructions for the hood switch to find the connector at www.handaccessories.com, http://www.handaaccessories.com/S2000/s2khoodswitch.pdf, they should be able to hook it up or any proximity sensor, without selling you a whole new alarm system, unless that's what you want. The hood switch input triggers the OEM alarm by connecting the two wires, effectively grounding the input to the OEM alarm unit. You can also piggy-back any other alarm inputs to the oem unit via the same connector, as long as you isolate them with diodes to keep them from interacting.

 

you provided exactly what i needed!

thanks for the info.
