viper 5704 alarm 1st alarm attempt

You're absolutely right, I'm having a bad week, the same daft (basic and not just you) questions keep coming up like bad pennies and I was doing my bad tempered old man routine, you got in the way so humble apologies. Plane ticket for next week please so I can miss the (yawn) Olympics and all the traffic gridlocks that will go with it.

thats why i only answer interesting questions to keep myself from being burnt out over common stuff. but honestly, who else would answer the dull questions because if you look at it, there might be about 30 people who are on the forum regularly AND who know what they are talking about. on a side note, why does the olympics still exist? every year they pick a different city to inconvenience and for what? the luge? professional volleyball? perhaps its to keep the athletes who have devoted their life to "sports" like badminton and curling from going crazy. end rant...

Soundnsecurity...X 2! The jams have already started. Most delivery drivers are now working only nights, the cost of the Olympics has doubled since the first estimates, trying to turn an existing dead zone/slum around with little or no infrastructure during a financial recession. Great.

Yeah, I hate to ask some of those very common how to questions on the forum, but since I don't commonly deal with or wire relays and alarms , I just had to ask. I first tried to search for the answer on the the12volt homepage, but didn't find anything. But, you answered my "bad penny" question so, I know how to do it from now on. That's for answering and being patient. (yeah, it sounded like you were a little frustrated in a couple previous posts, its cool. I was having a frustrating week also)Wiseman118

OK, we can shake hands but I still want the ticket

I have some great news, I made the connections exactly like your wiring diagr am, and it works! YES! I am so happy right now. The car cranks from the key and from the autostart. Its such a nice feeling actually be able to use the key. The autostart works, but sometimes it seems like it doesn't turn the starter long enough for the car to crank. The autostart will always operate and turn the key on and try to crank, but if it cranks the 1st time, and i try it again, it may turn the starter over a couple times but it won't catch and crank, the lights on the dash remain on (its like sometimes, it gives up too early). Is there an 'autostart learning feature", adjustment or something? Wiseman118

I'm guessing but in the programming should be something like "adjust crank time".

Well if I could get you a ticket, believe me I would. How about a beer, or a thankyou card or something? Wiseman118

Just joking, I just want out of this jammed up country, especially during the Olympics, supposed to cost £12 Billion, ($18B) now running at £30 ($45B), all out of our bloody taxes.

I saw something on the news earlier this week about how congested it is over there. Not to mention all new security personnel and heightened security they have going on. a lot of people they interviewed were not too happy with the how the current plans are going. I thought that news may have been over exaggerating a bit, but I guess all the fuss that was on tv was true. Ok, I think i see the adjustment info for the autostart. On the installation guide it is called "learning the tach." This is the only thing that looks like it is for the autostart Wiseman118
