Ok i have a list of problems whilst trying to install 2006 Ford Focus 1.8tdci LX:

1. Wont unlock or lock car proply(inconsitant) even thou it is connected to unlock/lock wires and then to ground

2. Car wont remote start at all, everything comes on like lights and dash but then it just goes off after about 5 seconds and then it sets of alarm saying a door is open when its not?

Any idea of wire colour for wait to start?? I can test wires as there all in a casing!

What bypass module did you use for the PATS bypass ? For the locks, did you solder or use connectors ?

And this is alarm i am trying to fit:

http://..co.uk/dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=150196354755&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=005

So how do i go about splicing the wires then for testing???? I just put the ring from imob bypass around ignition barrel as it states in book! Another thing is if i switch engine on with key and then remote start while engine is running i can remove key and engine will carry on running for about 7seconds before shutting down!

For the locks i used connectors to splice alarm wires in to existing lock wires

Try placing your key into the ignition and remote starting the vehicle with the key in the ignition ( just in the ignition but do not tuen to ON position ). This will tell you if it's the bypass or the RS system.

you will only diode isolate the wires if your doors have individual triggers/pins. now, it might not remote start because of usaully 2 reasons. The hood pin is constantly on ground OR the ebrake wire is not grounded. Look at the 7P connector and ground the BLACK/ WHITE. You can only GROUND this ebrake wire if the car is an AUTO ! if manual go buy a manual safe unit. i have installed these units befor and no offence but they are crappy. oh well its a fairly good unit for its price.
