FACTORY ARM Pink or Orange In white plug behind fusebox under dash   -

You unit should have a disarm....ORANGE / white? I think Did you make this connection?  Connect it to the brown, were you found the lock wires (PITA)

Guys, I just tried very hard to find these wires KarTuneMan indicates - anybody have any suggestions?  The only white plug behind the fusebox I can find is big, its got 2 plugs in it, I can't find a brown wire in either of them and I tested a few but can't find anything that sends a pulse.  This one wire is killing me, HELP PLEASE!

Also - I never located the lock wires because it wasn't necessary, the R/S I installed is R/S Only

They are in the door jamb boot with the lock wires. PITA. Drop the fuse box down a few 10mm bolts. Still.... PITA.

Thank you very much - at least it starts if she unlocks the doors and manually disarms the alarm - I'm going to give this a shot today hopefully.. Thank you again!

I can't thank you all enough - yes, I am no pro- but I can manage my way through it haha - I am going to attempt one on my 08 Legacy (my wife was the lucky trial car) and I'm sure I'll have questions ... One other thing, it appears the unit is NOT happy with the TACH, it will be fine (when the car is warm and I learn it, etc.) but not when its been sitting out all night - should I just re-learn it on a COLD start?  I've noticed that the RPMs are 200 (at most) higher on a cold start than a semi warm start... THANKS!

About the tach, Honda's rpm are high at start up so your module should learn in a low rpm's. Meaning you'll have to wait till the rpm is settled before you proceed.

This is what I did to my Civic and never fails.

The  wires you are looking for are on the inside of the car. The boot that goes THRU the kick into the door. THERE is where you will find said white plug.

lock, unlock, arm, and disarm are all in the same plug.

Thank you - I found the disarm wire thanks to ENICE for sending me a picture - but I did some reading last night and did read that the lowest sustainable idle should be learned.  So after the car was on for about 25 minutes driving, it was very warm, I learned the tach and tried to remotely start it about an hour later- worked like a charm.  Tried again this morning after a night of cooling down and same thing, start/die start/die start/die - any suggestions?  I used the injector wire for my tach, I'm considering flipping the jumper and using the alternator

It could also be a problem with the bypass module. Observe the immobilizer symbol on the instrument cluster when you are remote starting. Does it behave the same way as when you are starting with the key?
Also....when it starts and dies, is is actually starting and then turning off a second or two later, or does it not crank enough and never actually starts? In other words, is it overcranking, undercranking, or cranking the right amount? As others have said, I also suggest learning tach at a low RPM. Sometimes you may even need to start the car and put it in gear (while holding in the brake) and then learn tach.
