remote start viper 554r

Kreg been thinking that all day but too busy watching us hammer another team 4-0 about 6 times, watching Gross Point Blank yet again and helping some poor guy in Iraq with his Hyundai.

Just looked at the first post, blimey, a working 555f?

Used a few 555F's in the day.  Never liked them much, but was getting them for under $10.   No D2D, so the GWR is used for the 555F.Soldering is fun!

Oh that makes me feel better :) Actually they installed mine and my next door neighbors in his 2003 F150 the same week. Both of us have the 555F and they are still working...luckily. Mines just not working in other parts now. I also have a PKALL NIB that some friend gave me in case I ever had issues. He had it for his Cobra but never used it. Guess if I have to replace system I could use it in new one. Also have 4 new relays if ever needed too now. If this does appear to be a controller issue, any suggestions on a new system to install. Need one like I have now that can tie in to the GB detector in canopy and etc. I`ll just have to solder and HS the one line back together they cut to interface into ignition harness circuit.

Kreg, the 554 doesn't have a D2D port, it does have a third ignition (-) output H3/2 Blue/Black. It's on the same harness as the blue (GWR) status output.

Follow Kreg's suggestion ref the blue armed out put, branch off and place 2 diodes 1N4004 in each branch, band towards brain then cut thin pink an inch or so away from the relay and join branch you just made to it.

Sorry crossed in time forget my last post and follow Catback's last post, then no need for diodes.

Its not being used as its terminated and crimped with heat shrink tubing. I saw it earlier from the 6 wire harness with hood pin/cutoff and tach and brake. I just remember looking at them tracing them back.

So use it, make sure it goes to ground when you initiate the remote start if so go ahead and you should be good to go.

I have to admit I`m not real used to this stuff and a little confused possibly. Am I using this 3rd ignition wire blue/w black stripe to replace the small pink wire at relay or in addition to it? As long as its sending the ground when activating remote start as you said.
