• Yes. Each controller is provided with all the necessary electrical connectivity accessories. There is no wiring modifications required on your vehicles. No wire cutting. No wire splicing. And, if you ever decide to remove the controller, the car is exactly as it was before you installed the controller.

  • The Model B4 and Model B4A get power from the vacuum solenoid connector. The car’s connector provides the power through one of the two pins on the cable. With the Model B4-FP, B5, and B6 the power is obtained from a fused circuit on the car. A fuse tap is provided with the kit to make this connection.

    In each case, all parts required for establishing the electrical connection are provided in the controller kit. And, as stated above, there are no wiring modifications on your vehicle. Everything is plug-and-play

  • The position of the vacuum solenoid valves varies depending on the car. You can visit the Vacuum Solenoid Positions page and look for your vehicle. Most of the vehicles listed have a corresponding diagram showing the location of the vacuum solenoid valves. As more information becomes available, this list will be updated.

    If your vehicle's solenoid valve position is not in the table, check the vehicle specific installation tips documents or contact us with any questions.

  • On some vehicles the installation is simple. If you are handy with a wrench and screwdriver, it should not be difficult. A lift or means of raising the vehicle up is useful in some instances. E.g., the Alfa Romeo Giulia is an easy install, but you will need to gain access under the rear of car.

    In the most extreme examples, the rear bumper may need to be removed. This is generally not difficult, but for the novice can be a daunting task.

    Many customers elect to have a shop perform the install. Any competent auto shop should be up to the task. Also, reputable car audio system installation shops can be a good source.

  • In the US, there is a Federal statute know as the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act enacted in 1975.

    Using the Forza controller should not have any negative effect on any other component on the car. That said, if you have doubts, remove the controller prior to submitting the car for warranty repair. Once the controller is removed, there will be no evidence that it was ever installed.

  • The only potential for battery drain is on the Camaro Generation 5 (model years 2010 to 2015). The controller for the Camaro obtains power from the car's fuse box. The fuse box in the luggage compartment of the Camaro Gen5 (model years 2010 - 2015) is always active. I.e., when you shut off the ignition, the fuse panel is still energized. However, with the Camaro Gen5, solutions are described in the installation instructions to isolate the controller from active power when you shut off the ignition.

    You can read more about parasitic battery drain here.

    For all other vehicles, there is no battery drain.

  • Yes. Each controller kit contains printed installation instructions. You can also view/download instructions here.

    There are some videos available for viewing. Links to videos are located here.

  • You can program the remote fob to your car's HomeLink system if the HomeLink system is 2014 or later.

    You can also use a manual switch in place of the remote. Instructions for configuring a manual switch for the controller are included in the installation document(s). You can use a 2-way switch (On/Off) for toggling between Normal and Open. A 3-way switch (On/Off/On) is required for toggling between Open, Normal and Closed.

    Forza sells an inexpensive and attractive LED illuminated push-button switch available on our Catalog page.

  • Depending on the controller model, you may be able to use it on a different vehicle besides the one you first installed it on. Check the Compatibility Page and the installation instructions that came with your controller. You can access the installation instructions here. If you have any questions, please contact us.

  • Using the Model B Series controllers, if using the remote, you can choose if you want the valves to be open or in the normal mode (typically closed) at engine start. The Model E Series do not offer this option. At engine start, the valves will be in the normal mode.

    With any controller, if you are using a manual switch, the position that the switch is in will dictate the controller mode. Because a manual switch is a mechanical device, the position of the switch is not reset when you turn off the ignition. Upon restarting the car, the controller will assume the mode that the switch is set for.

  • We are honored that several resellers around the world offer Forza products for resale. There are also several service centers that have experience in installing the Forza controller. Click here to view the page.
