ok guys so i did my first alarm install. Time consuming but i wired everything up. The alarm works perfect. No problems but the remote start shows error. I wired the neutral safety wire to the ebrake.

Below is how I wired the remote start harness from the alarm to my ignition harness.I just noticed that my battery is draining slowly.

(H3) 10-pin connector

H3/1 PINK (+) IGNITION 1 INPUT/OUTPUT =BLACK/ White ignition harness

H3/2 RED / WHITE (+) FUSED (30A) IGNITION 2 / FLEX RELAY INPUT 87 = White ignition harness

H3/3 ORANGE (+) ACCESSORY OUTPUT = Blue

H3/4 VIOLET (+) STARTER OUTPUT (CAR SIDE OF THE STARTER KILL) = BLACK/ Red Ignition Switch Harness

H3/5 GREEN (+) STARTER INPUT (KEY SIDE OF THE STARTER KILL WIRE) = BLACK/ Red Ignition Switch Harness

H3/6 RED (+) FUSED (30A) IGNITION 1 INPUT = White ignition harness

H3/7 PINK/WHITE (+) IGNITION 2 / FLEX RELAY OUTPUT = Blue/Black ignition harness

H3/8 PINK/BLACK (+) FLEX RELAY INPUT 87A key side (if required) of FLEX

RELAY = Cut short and tape off

H3/9 RED / BLACK (+) FUSED (30A) ACCESSORY/STARTER INPUT = White ignition harness

Is your car manual or Automatic? Seven parking lights flashes indicate:

Manual transmission mode is enabled and not initialized.

I don't do DEI stuff, but any of the other manny tranny stuff that I install requires a process that you have to go through before you get out of the vehicle. You can't just hop out of the vehicle like you can with a remote start on an auto.

I have not done a manual remote start install so I must confess that I am not sure of the next step to take. However, in comparing the install manuals for the Viper 5301 and 5701 there is a there is a manual start procedure listed in those manuals that I don't see in the 5901 manual. On page 60 of the 5301 manual and page 78 of the 5701 manual. I don't see this procedure listed at all in the 5901 manual. The 5301 & 5701 install manuals are in the download section of this site, as follows:

Manual transmission remote start

If the vehicle has manual transmission the proper steps must be followed before

leaving the parked vehicle or the remote start feature is disabled.

Make sure the doors on the vehicle are closed.

Put the transmission in neutral.

Press on the brake in the vehicle.

Apply the emergency brake.

Release the brake.

Within 15 seconds activate the remote start from the remote.

The parking lights will flash confirming that the remote start is active.

Turn off the ignition (the car should stay running when key is turned off).

Exit the vehicle.

Arm the alarm (the vehicle should shut off when arming the system).

You can now remote start the vehicle. If a door is opened or if the alarm is triggered

before the next remote start activation the system will not remote start.

Hope this will work for you.

do you have a door pin wire from the viper connected to the car? it needs to see the door trigger before you shut it down.

also, i believe you have to run a tach wire in manual mode as well. make sure you program the tach first. then go through the shutdown sequence
