depending on the r/s unit you are installing, if it comes with a starter-kill feature, just install it as install it as if you were hooking up an alarm (ie on DEI... green to switch side of starter wire, violet to motor side of starter wire). This is an easy way to fix the problem.

well i have seen where they label the relay as

STARTER DEFEAT/ANTI-GRIND

to be honest, i have done this and it doesnt work for me.

85 - ignition

86 - ground when armed (starter kill)

87a - starter wire key side

87 - starter wire motor side

but thing is the ground when armed is only good until you press unlock. if you get inside and "accidently" turn the key to start(its dumb but it happens) no matter what, it will GRIND. I dont know if you guys do this setup,but this is what i do.

85 - ignition

86 - ground when armed (start kill) AND ground while running(prevents accidental grind) both diode isolated

87a - starter wire key side

87 - starter wire motor side

that way i never see a custome come back and say i have grinded the engine a few times. i think this menthod is good because if they disarm, the relay is no longer energized, but the GWR is powering the relay until IGNITION is turn on, breaking contact to the starter wires.

I'm tellin ya'll, relay isolate the Accy.... I just did one... The starter grinds between the off and #1 position on the key cylinder, and if you isolate the accy it no longer does it.

Install it like everyone will see EVERY part of it.

KarTuneMan,

Thanks just did that today and it works. My alarm(AGA 1201) has an option for starter kill in case of theft but my concern is it activates a relay which is "normally closed" meaning power is always applied to this relay when armed. Will this drain my battery in case I don't use my car for days?

Thanks
