*  Verify that the Civic has the Factory Alarm system that monitors the hood.  If not, install the Viper supplied Hood Pin

and connect it to Viper H2/9.

All that is left is the H1 harness :

Main Harness (H1), 6-pin connector

And of course there is the ADS AL-CA wires not already mentioned above :

Red to Viper H1/1 RedBlack and Blue/Red to Viper H1/2 BlackWHITE/ Red to Civic Gray UnlockWhite to Civic Green Lockand the three wires that go to the Civic's 7 Pin Transponder connector.

All of these connections should be well soldered and insulated.

Next is all the required programming.  Follow the bypass module guide steps on Page 10.  Use Installation Mode =

Standard ( 2 blinks ) as previously mentioned, lock it in and proceed with programming.

You also need to program the Viper's Flex relay to ACC2, set Engine Checking = Tach Mode and do a Tach Learn.

Soldering is fun!

Arm and Disarm works. But remote start does not. I also have check engine and the car does not start even when I use the keys.

Arm/Disarm works, but do the doors lock and unlock? When you start the car with the key what happens and doesn't happen? It's difficult to verify whether you have a set check engine light when the car does not start. The check engine light typically comes up during key on for bulb test/check purposes. In any case regarding starting the car with the key, ensure the alarm is deactivated and your ignition switch wires are connected properly.

And when you or a pro gets the engine running and if the light stays on disconnect the battery for 20 minutes.

H3 violet and green are connected the wrong way round.

Green to key side, violet to motor side.

It lock and unlock. Key inserted in the second position the check engine light stay on. Using key to start only cranks not start.

Check the ignition wires at the switch using a DMM. Or you've managed somehow to mess up the factory immobiliser.

Recheck, and then double check your connections between the alca and the wires at the ignition make sure they are right. If they are right, disconnect them at the ignition or even easier at the alca and try to start the car with the key then. If the car starts then you have a wiring or flash issue with the alca.

I was able to start it by key before I connected the tach wire to the FI.
