Topic: remote start for manual convert to auto

Subject: remote start for manual convert to auto

i hope im not duplicating with this one. i have been searching for hours with no luck. i did find a lot about modding an automatic remote start car alarm for a manual car. but that dose not help me.

so i have an Asian Wolf 2009 remote start and car alarm system. its been sitting for months waiting to be installed in my rx-7 5 speed, it was meant to be put in a manual car.

i recently bought a new car and am selling my rx-7. my new car is a 2000 crown Victoria p71. it is not equipped with PATS. i was wondering if there was a way to install it seeing as how the alarm is for a manual and am currently driving an automatic.

it would help if there was a way. i spent a lot of money for this remote start car alarm. i did a lot of research and really like the features. it would be a shame if i couldn't some how make this work.

thanks

Does that unit need to be programmed into standard mode?  If I remeber there is a jumper or wire that needs to be cut to go into standard mode, just done do that.

Standard mode = standard transmission mode.

It would help if we knew what model Asian Wolf you have.

Supposing that your remote starter is made for automatic transmission vehicles only and if the remote starter has a neutral safety wire that requires to be grounded for the starter to work, you can add a Peripheral NSS

The poster has an alarm that is for both standard and maunual transmission. He's trying to program it for standard mode.

  • As lspker said, cut the manual/auto transmission wire loop. That programs the R/S for standard mode.

what wire would that be listed as in my manual i have here? or maybe what tip off would the wire give me when i see it on the diagram?

Scan the manual, upload it to the site, and we'll have some information to help you by, as well as others in the future.

BINGO. my thoughts exactly.... i actually found a scanner today. but just got off work and cant scan anything at this moment. but i read the manual. and it looks straight forward.

im going to scan a few points of interest involving the install for manual tranny and also the wire diagram itself. you guys will probably know what to say when you look it over for sure. those will be here soon but not tonight. thank you for all the help so far. not out of the woods yet lol.

I contacted the company and uploaded the installation manual here. However, it's for a standard-transmission. AsianWolf does not have access to a PDF for a manual-transmission, so upload the manual when you can. Also, it's possible it's a ScyTek or other clone.

Strange, you can select automatic or manual transmission from their web site order desk. I thought maybe they flash the CPU according to needs.

The Peripheral NSS will do the trick using the hood pinswitch input.

Isn't that the same?

Anywho.....

I updated my post, while you were replying. I mean to say auto-transmission, not standard.

Actually, your install guide was useful. It will work on manual tranny cars.

The last page clearly states that you need to connect a tach wire, door trigger and the emergency brake switch (as well as the rest of the wiring of course). Follow the diagram and don't forget to bypass the clutch switch with a relay.

Page 15 explains what you need to do to put the car into "ready-mode" and be able to remote start it.

If it came from Asianwolf, they sell Scytek products.

Then most likely, It's a ScyTek rebranded for AsianWolf.

ok so it is possible to install this manual system on an automatic? using the wire diagram from here, https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/alarmdetail/827.html i see that there is a tach wire. also im wondering some one mentioned defeating clutch with a relay, what about e-break? this car is in park all the the time. is there a way to defeat that or perhaps put it on the breaking system?

Forget clutch bypass but you need to do the rest as if it was a manual shift.

Also, don't forget that it will be necessary to do the exit routine to enable remote starting: while engine running, e-brake, foot off brake pedal, press start button on remote, get out and close door, lock door. If you open the door before remote starting, you need to repeat the exercise.

It will function but I would find it tiresome in the long run.
