remote starter to multiple ignition wires

howie ll wrote: One or two red or RED / green RED / blue = 12V+ input. 3 x light green as ignition 1*. 1 X violet (purple) as ACC wire as ignition 1. BLACK / YELLOW(? secondary varies)as starter. *The Euro version gets away with 1 light green. Tach, black pin 9 (surprise surprise) on OBD ll data socket or rear of inst. gauges. DOUBLE check/test everything that Bulldog quotes, it's only a guide and as Kreg has just pointed out in another thread, they've made a mistake on a Saturn's lock polarity. If they can make a mistake on a GM car.........

Alright, I have everything hooked up according your last diagram using only the main ignition output from the RS. I have used 3 relays for the three 540i green ignition wires and the purple from the car straight to the RS (yellow). The car starts now. However it's shuts off after ~19 seconds and starts automatically after ~5 sec. until I turn off the ignition by hand. What can that be? Thanks a lot for all your help to get it running.

Most likely, tach not correctly programmed. What by-pass? Try with key in ignition, if it starts and runs you will know it's the by-pass. If you have a by-pass which is D2D, run it W2W, up to 2005 on BMW, you're better off hard wiring.

I went through the steps to program the TACH according the Bulldog Installation Manual. The wire is connected to the back of the inst. gauge black wire on blue plug. Figure it out using BMW wiring diagrams and a DMM. The transponder bypass module is DesignTech 29402 (EWS III). It is connected to the Bulldog RS but I am not using it yet. The key with the transponder is in ignition "OFF" position. I want to get the car started and running properly first.

yes, it was the TACH. I probably did it wrong the first time. I programed the TACH again and it works! Thank you! I don't know if is an issue but the engine does not shut off on ignition position two (2), only on position one (1) so I have to turn the key all the way to turn off the car. It's not a big deal but is this normal? The other thing is the horn output, to get an acoustic confirmation during programming. Does anyone know where to tap the wire to the cars alarm siren other than on the siren it self. I mean somewhere inside the driver compartment.
