Remote Start Problem

I have a 94 Pelude mt... I have installed the remote start and it starts, but like after 10 secs it goes off.

The alarm system I buy it from ebay.. asianwolf..

It says for automatic trans only, but I have read that it could be installed to manual trans... and also the alarm wont know if it manual or not.


The other thing, just to be sure, the tach wire whe the engine is running it haves 12V, and its constantly changing from 3V to 12V?

the tach wire is AC, it should range from 1-6v AC.

Thanks... that tell me that probably I got the wrong wire for the tach...

I have EL gauges... so I looked at non-EL gauges conversion to EL... and I read that the tach is a blue w/silver dots..?
the only blue w/silver dots is in the SRS plug, and it haves 12V almost all the time, and "pulsating" between 3-12V..

So, in EL gauges, where you find the tach wire?

Because a bad tach wire, could be that the car shut down after it has been turn on?

Yes but if it doesnt pick up tach signal, it will not disengage the starter. single blue wire, passenger side strut tower or yel/grn wire on "A block" on ecu

Thanks... im gonna chek this weekend.

It do disengage the starter but... hope that the cable solve it...

Do 16ga wires can do the remote start fine? comming from the middle of the back seats upto the upper part of the fusebox
or it will be more safe and/or better to use relays?

thanks... havent check the tach cable yet... i have all the relays up to the fusebox, and to work better down there i remove the dash and sometimes the fusebox.

other question... all the relays should be connected to the wht 12v that goes to the steering wheel? or i can connect them to others 12v (the same size)?

-there are like 2 (there are more, but i sum all the fuses that they will supply 12v, and they dont exceeded the amp) 12v comming from the fusebox under the hood to the under dash fusebox, i think one of them was a wht/blu and wht/red...

No. Each appropriate relay output wire needs to be hooked up to the appropriate ignition harness wire; 12v constant, 12vIgnition, 12vAccessory. Those are the three heavy gauge wires that you will definitely need to hook up to in the ignition harness.

i got them connected to the relays... sorry if i wasnt expecific specific

i'm using 5 pin relays, 40A/30A...

85 to the ACC, IGN, ect 12V (from the alarm),
86 to a ground,

87 to ACC, IGN, ect,
87a to none,
30 to 12V

the 12V connected to the 30, is the one i'm talking about.

when i start the remote start, it will provide 12v to the 85, and will make that the 87 and 30 have continuity.
that 12v to the 85 is controlled by the remote start module of the alarm.


What i want to say, if i can take other 12v to the 30, so that the 12v in the ignition wont be overloaded..?
