remote start, 1990 ford festiva

Hi guys. This is my first time installing a remote start so id like to doubble check on a couple things. Im installing a viper 5900 These are ths ignition wires i have, five heavy wires; white = battery feed blue/red = accessory (voltage in acc & on) BLACK/ red = on (voltage in on) BLACK/ white = ignition feed (voltage in on & start) BLACK/ blue = start (voltage in start) I think i got it all figured out except for purple and green. Do i cut the balck/blue start wire and put purple on the starter side and green on the key side? Remote start harness // Ignition circuit Purple ? Green ? Red -> White Orange -> Blue/Red Pink -> BLACK/ White Red -> White Pink/White -> N/A? RED / White -> White The only other connection is BLACK/ red = on (voltage in on)Do i need to energize this too? Perhaps using the 2nd ignition wire on the realy satelite?

What is the vehicle you're installing it in? Just to make sure you don't have any of the wires wrong.

1990 Ford Festiva... lol yea i thought i had the PURPLE / green right. Now im just not sure if i need to do anything with the BLACK/ red = on (voltage in on)wire. Do i use the 2nd ignition wire here? thanks guys

Aswell, the power lock outputs on the viper, are they low current for driving relays, or can they be used to run actuators directly. I cant find anything about those outputs in the manual. I installed power locks way back with a pair of 2 wire actuators and 2 5 pin relays.

thanks guys few more questions... on the main harness.. what on earth do i do with the WHITE/ blue remote start (-) activation input. Also if i hook up the dome supervision... to turn on the dome i would have to ground the neg side.. which is the same as opening up a door.. will this confuse the alarm at all? also, how should i bypass the clutch switch? before anyone has kittens about remote start+MTX, the car has a factory neutral gear position switch on the trans that ive wired into the neutral safty wire on the alarm so all is good. the wire showed +12 when in neutral so i reversed the polarity with a relay.

The WHITE/ blue is used to start the vehicle without the remote. Use this if you want to start the starter from another device (alarm etc.) I have hooked these up to a push button under the dash for delivery trucks. You should be ok hooking up the dome light, I doubt Viper would design something that could set itself off. You have to test the switch and duplicate it's function with a relay. PLEASE double and triple check your neutral safety setup.....

where do i get current to activate the relay when the remote start activates?
