clifford 590.2x

oh well that could be my problem, i didnt know i had to have the tach wire connected.. i was gonna do that down the line, the last remote start i put it my car didnt need the tach wire hooked up... ok well after i connect up the tach wire, is there anything else i need to do or set before the remote start could work???

I am new to this forum and have an issue I need help with. I am installing a Clifford 590.2x into an older (1986) Porsche. I am trying to hook up the parking lights to flash during arming, disarming and alarming. I don't have an relay with an 87a connection for the parking lights for the WHITE/ brown wire and I don't get 12v or ground out of my white wire that is supposed to go to the parking lights. How do I connect this? Also, I am not going to use the auto start feature of this alarm but which wire do I connect to the ignition to sense that I have turned the key on? Any help is greatly appreciated.

dsire Don't hijack someone else's thread it's bad manners. Also what model? Very relevant. The first answer by the way is that the WHITE/ brown isn't required. What have you connected to where? Pink at H3/1 is both ignition input AND output as it says on the instructions which you obviously haven't read from your questions.

I have a 1986 Porsche 911 Carerra Targa. I did read the instructions and I did have H3/1 pink connected to the ignition. I initiated an alarm activation by bumping the car to test it. That part worked. I then applied 12v to H3/1 to reset the blinking indicator on the control center and couldn't get it to clear. I wasn't trying to Hijack anyone elses thread. Just wasn't sure of the proper procedure.

the alarm might need to see an open door too in order to reset the blinking LED.

Ok, now that kinda makes sense. It's a convertible so I didn't have to open the door. Thank you

Easier to pick up lights etc. from the underhood fusebox, all labelled. Control unit goes there and siren either behind headlight or in rear engine bay remove rear "seat" upright to access grommets in lower corners. If central locking, the neg triggers are either in plugs adjacent to hood hinges or control unit under right hand seat (at least they are here).

I have the central locking hooked up and that work great. I have the siren all hooked up an in a good location (facing downward in the front air damn). My problem is that the parking light output wire white H1/11 gives me no +12v or ground. I get nothing at all from that wire during arming or disarming. What am I missing?

is there a parking light input wire that needs to be hooked to something or there is a missing fuse or jumper. DEI usually has a separate fuse for the parking light output and there is a jumper that is used to select the polarity. if either the fuse or the jumper is missing then there will be no output. newer DEI alarms use the fuse as the jumper so check and make sure it is there and that the fuse is not blown.

And, by the time the Viper gets from Taiwan to the US then to Romania and then to the UK, the fuse has usually slipped out, worth a look. Also, is your H1/1 connected to a constant power source?
