i am having a problem with my rs it is a prostart ct-3160m it is ment for a standard vehicle but i dont think that matters i have hooked everything up but on this site it says the tach is BLACK/ grey and it is located at the coil pack 2 cylinder setting im assuming this is the coil/distributer i found a BLACK/ grey there but when i wire to it and try to get into ready mode i get an error that means its not getting a pulse from the tach so i checked other wires in that harness and there was a tan yellow i hooked it up to that and i got the remote start to work but the problem is it turns over and runs for about 5 seconds then dies why is this wrong tach maybe and if so where do i find the right one because any other wire on that harness will not work! thanks hoping for some help getting frustrated

Did you hook up the third ignition wire?
Also:Tach-
6 cylinder engine : BLACK/ gray @ distributor
4 Cylinder Engine : BLACK/ GRAY & D BLUE/GREEN At Coil Pack. Each Wire Is A 2 Cylinder Signal.

Neutral Safety Switch : BLACK / YELLOW[-] (negative) : @ switch on drivers side of the Transaxle.
As for the reason why you have to program the keypa in each time I dont have an answer but I'll try to figure it out...

You have to put the remote starter inot ready mode because the unit is designed for a manual transmission vehicle. This is normal. It is the only way the remote starter knows that the vehicle is safe to start in a manual trans. vehicle. You don't have this concern in an automatic vehicle. Do yourself a favour and buy a Prostart kit for a auto trans. It will essentially plug in with only a few wiring changes/programming. It will be far easier to use.

Yes I understand. This is the normal operating procedure for a remote starter designed for a manual transmission vehicle. By putting the unit into ready mode, the remote starter then knows that the vehicle is in a state that is safe to start (In neutral and door hasn't been opened since remotely shut down) Automatic trans. remote starters don't care about this because they can only be shut down and have the key removed if they are in park.
