2010 Forester, Avital 4105

Hi! names MIke from NY. just joined to ask a few questions. I am putting a remote starter in my 2010 forester an Avital 4105 with a DB3 data bus interface (Directed). I was an installer back in the 90's but that when the chipped keys just started to come out. anyhow I have a question, what is this chip that is tapped to my remote start? its under the red tape. I don't see it going into anything. also am I suppose to twist these like this for the immobilizer data connections? any help would be great. the guy I bought the db3 from programed it so I am hoping it works ok if not I am up the creek.

sorry the pics are so large lol

It's a jumper/shunt for selecting parking light polarity?

Yes, Parking Light jumper. Soldering is fun!

oh ty much! I don't know why they don't mention this somewhere in the paperwork.

No help on the immobilizer wire? Anybody?somebody?

Twist? Never. Always solder. All of the bypass manufacturers are doing that vehicle pretty much the same way.   Both of the shown IMMO wires get cut and joined together along with a wire or two from the bypass module. In the case of your chosen bypass module, follow the install guide wiring diagram exactly. All those connections should be properly soldered and insulated. In this case you could easily use heat shrink tube instead of Scotch Super 33+ tape. Soldering is fun!

thank you, I just wanted to be sure I had it write. I think I need to get it reflashed, I hear the door lock relays in the bypass clicking when I hit the remote but nothing happens and the car don't start, going to play with it some more tomorrow. ty

right**

ok so if I can get a little more help on wiring a relay. its not even attempting to start, so I was checking things over and but my test light to 85 (-starter 2 output) it had a dim light ( little power) while off. I tried starting ti with the test light still touching 85 and it cranked over but shut off after a second. now I am wondering if I need to wire the relay differently. this is what the immobilizer bypass diagram has. So I found this in the forums and wonder if its a better option. I wouldn't think 85 should have + voltage on it when the car is off at any time. any help would be great.
