You need to power all 3 wires at once. That's what the relays are for.

wouldn't i just need 2 ignition wires tought?

use voltmeter to figure out which are ignition wires as you describes before and use 2 relays for thouse?

by the way do you think I can pickup relays in any car audio shop? any special relays I should ask for?

"bangster" from TCCOA forum said he used both grey/orange wires for his autostart but he used one relay

it does seem that relay will be needed regardless. i will stop by a few places see if I can buy a couple.

any recommendations on which Relay to look for?

Why don't you do this.

With a couple of jumpers and the key IN the ignition in the OFF position;

- jumper from constant power to ignition 1

- jumper from constant power to ignition 2

- pulse constant power to starter wire till vehicle runs

Does it keep running now? If so then you need a immobilizer bypass.

If not then you don't have the right ignition wires connected.

starter makes car start, turn off shortly - Page 4 - Last Post -- posted image.

Looking at the PDF file here

Just to Verify I connect 30 and 87A in parallel

and then we got 3 seperate cables ground, 12V and alarm input?

im not sure what that round thingie mean between 85 and 86

Don't worry about the curly line between 85 and 86. That's just showing you that's the coil inside the relay.

85 is connected to the output of your alarm, 86 is connected to ground.

87 is connected to a fused constant 12V source. Make sure if you're using this to power an ignition wire that the voltage on the constant 12V doesn't drop out when the vehicle is starting.

30 is connected to the ignition wire in the car. Nothing is connected to 87a in this application.
