Hi,
I'm currently installing a remote start/alarm Clifford Matrix RS 3.5 in my 91 Acura Legend with manual transmission. I know it is not recommended by anyone to put remote start in stick shift but I have built a spring loaded neutral switch that sends a (-) ground signal to the matrix module when the shifter is on neutral only. Anyway, I have problem in some of the wiring:
On Primary Harness (H1), where should these wire goes?
- Orange Wire = ground when armed output
- WHITE/ Blue (-) = activation input
- Violet wire = Door trigger input - I only have (-)
- Blue wire (-) = multiplex Input
On Secondary Harness (H2) --- For the arm and disarm wire on the matrix module, is it necessary to use a relay here or can I wire it directly to the factory alarm module since its polarity is (-)
Door lock Harness --- The RS 3.5 came with 451M relay and has 5 wire that needs to be connected to something (Purple and PURPLE / black that leads to one wire, then there's the GREEN/ black wire, blue/black wire, WHITE/ black and the BROWN / black wire). Need instruction here.
Remote Start Harness --- I figured all the wiring in here except for the 4 small wires which I don't think it connecs directly to the ignition switch since they are about 22 gauge thin.
- Blue (-) status wire
- Orange (-) 200mA 2nd Accessory output
- Purple (-) 200 mA starter output
- Pink (-) 200 mA 3rd ignition output
For bypassing the clutch - should I connect one of the wires (BLACK/ blue) in the clucth switch directly to the Blue (-) status wire or to the Pink (-) 200mA 3rd ignition output wire from the smaller wires in the remote start harness.
I appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks

Is this On
on that 451m its just like a relay what ever you put on the purple wire you get out in your car door locks are - so you would ground the purple wire and blue and green would go to your door locks you dont have to do a thing to the thin gauge 4 wires also their should be a black and white wire that should see ground when your gear is in neutral
Orange wire is for supplying signal to a 2nd starter (perhaps fuel pump?) kill relay-- your choice whether or not to use it. You already have starter kill if you cut the starter wire and hooked up green and purple appropriately.
WHITE/ blue would be for having some other thing in your car activate the R/S-- unlikely you'd need this.
Leave violet unconnected.
The blue wire (on the prim harness) is most traditionally used as a trunk trigger.
Wire directly. But don't bother hooking these up until the end, because you may well not need them. A lot of factory alarms don't have any problem w/ the car starting up.
What ksutton said. Let me add that you probably don't need this-- aren't your door lock and unlock wires negative polarity? If so, hook the green wire (from the 2 -wire, 3 pin door locks harness) to your car's lock wire and the blue wire (same place) to your car's unlock wire.
RS -- leave most of those unconnected. Either the blue or the pink sends the appropriate signal to use to bypass the clutch-- may need a relay and to cut a clutch wire. (I don't know nuthin' about clutches!)
