If powered as a second ignition, the car will not crank." for second accessory. so if there is no "second accessory" wire off my remote start [wich i do not have at this point in time] then i would have to wire a relay inline with the "first accesory" wire as a trigger for the relay? or is there an eaiser way to do it? im guessing theres going to be a second accessory wire on the remote start though.second, the keysense and many of the other wires are located in a bcm\molex thing above the break pedal.<a href="ftp://ca:ca@24.58.144.97:21/IMG_0591.jpg" target="_blank">picture one - of the BCM under the driver side dash and above the break pedal</a><a href="ftp://ca:ca@24.58.144.97:21/IMG_0592.jpg" target="_blank">note the two green wires *sigh*</a>you can see there are two green wires in there, what does keysense do when triggered? just apply 12v? or does it ground?as far as the locks go, it says i need to use relays, what relay would i need, and how do i need to wire it? ive not really been taught on relays\locks very much.as far as the factory alarm, it says "factory alarm disarm," is there usually a wire that comes off the remote start that will disarm the factory alarm when the remote start is activated?ive done more alarms than remote starts, and most remote starts ive worked on were older and more straight forward vehciles - always with help from the Sr. Installer [who was a terrible teacher i might add - never explained anything]so is there anything else i will need to know when putting this in? and please dont recommend alarms or remote start brands. no im not getting anything you have ever heard of. and please dont tell me its garbage... as far as hardware is concerned - i know what im doing. if you dump my thread. i will help it dissapear.thanks for all the help if you can provide any insight. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif</blockquote>
