Hi kids

I have installed a thor alarm (dont know model number) on a 2002 honda VTR1000SP1 or RC51. everything works on the alarm thanks to the wiring diagram found on this site only the remote start wont work. The indicators light up like its trying to do something when you push the button but nothing else happens. The wiring diagram says the blue wire needs to  "connect to starter wire"  so i conected it to the starter solinoid which is the same wire that is on the handlebar to start the bike. Strange thing is there is no power to this wire from the alarm unit when its trying to remote start. I obviosly have the wrong connection point anyone have any ideas. I dont want to go hacking at wires to find the right one i like the way the bike isthor remote start on vtr1000 sp1 -- posted image..

the wireing diagram can be found at hsalarms.com if it helps and i cant seem to get info from them as there address for info is non exsistant.

Appreciate your help

no joy still just get indicators lit up.

Dont think its quite that simple, to start its going to need the ignition to power up as to run the injectors i have a feeling its going to require extra wiring but im not sure and thats why im asking.

thanks though it was worth a try you never know.

The blue wire connects to the wire that is attached to the Start button.  Probably on the right handlebar.  However the clutch switch needs to be tripped.  You may look into a velcro strap to wrap around and hold the clutch in.

WIll your bike start without pulling the clutch?   With the key and the start button.

yes it does unless its in gear then you have to pull the clutch.

the only other thing i noticed is when you hit the remote button to start it there doesent seem to be a signal from the blue wire mind you i tested it with a test light not a multi meter dont know if that helps.

i do appreasiate you trying to help to

i tested that blue wire tonight and found it to be only putting out 86mv so it will need a relay to activate the starter but i will still have the problem of no power to turn on injectors and coil. it also wont turn over with the key in the ignition and pushing the button on the remote maybee thats because it needs a relay.

im thinking its not going to work on this particular bike somehow

Was the blue wire connected to anything when you got the 86mv reading?  If it was not connected to anything at that time, it will not trip a relay.  If it was connected to the solenoid wire, a relay may help you.
