Operates with normal one second ground pulse. These wires also trigger a factory starter kill on the base model cars w/o alarm system. Ignition controlled locking will cause a no-start problem because of this. The PURPLE / brown wire at the door lock pump located in right rear corner of trunk must be grounded for vehicle to start. There is also a single WHITE/ green wire at the dash mounted door lock switch that does not engage the starter kill. No information available at this time about interface with WHITE/ green wire.

   of the trunk. there are other colors. there is two plugs into the pump, one with three wires and the other below has about  five wires. please be specific on which plug to locate this PURPLE / brown to grounded so that remote starting will be possible. also where is the PURPLE / green starter  relay bypass wire which can crank the starter?. thanks.

I have been wasting a couple moment finding wiring too in those car ...

SO note this one

There is the easiest way i succed ...

Disarm with the unlock wire and use a relay to open the 12 volt(for the door lock pulse duration) feed at the vacuum motor in the trunk ( red grey or something like that ) it will result a regular disarm as easy as that oh yeah!

Even if you find the same wire in the driver kick panel dont open-it there because the alarm is else where after the kick pad so if there is no power it wont disarm.

Anything better folks?
