DIY Installation Guide: How to Install KēZ in Under 30 Minutes

Installing KēZ doesn’t require a mechanic or complicated tools. The system was designed from the ground up to be user-friendly, safe, and compatible with most vehicle systems.

What You’ll Need:

  • KēZ installation kit (includes smart relay and adapter)
  • Compatible vehicle (check our Vehicle Selector)
  • Smartphone with the KēZ mobile app installed

Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Locate Your Fuse Box: It is typically located under the dash or in the hood. Refer to your manual to locate the starter relay.
  2. Remove and Replace the Relay: Pull the starter relay and insert the KēZ smart relay in its place. Make sure it’s seated firmly.
  3. Plug in the OBD-II Adapter: This port is usually located under the dashboard near the steering wheel. Connect the KēZ adapter.
  4. Pair with the App: Open the KēZ app, follow the pairing instructions, and link your smartphone to the system.
  5. Test Functionality: Arm the system, attempt a start without your phone, and confirm that the immobilizer activates.

Tips for Success:

  • Use gloves if working near the engine compartment.
  • Label your original relay for future reference.
  • Run the system test with the car in park and the hood open.
