5704 issues with remote start f350 diesel

Hi everyone. I bought an alarm from amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005ZHFXKU/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And with tilt and glass sensor. I also purchased the PKALL module http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001N7RE44/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This all into my 2008 F350 Diesel. I've got the alarm working. Now I don't mind the delayed reaction to execute. But I'm having a problem remote starting the vehicle. I have everything wired as follows as I have done this before: h1/1 red const 12v - tap to a const 12v TN/WH BCM h1/2 black grnd - chassis ground Bk BCM h1/3 brown siren out - connect to sirens red (black to ground) h1/4 WHITE/ brown park light isolation wire - not used h1/5 white park light out - out to parking light h1/6 orange ground when armed out - not used Door lock 1 blue out - tap to neg unlock - Pnk/LG 2 empty 3 green - tap to neg lock- Pnk/YL Aux/shutdown/trigger harness, 24-pin connector h2/1 pink/white ign/flex relay out - not used h2/2 BLACK/ white neutral safety input - Run straight to grnd h2/3 blue white 2nd stat/rear defog out - not used h2/4 green black oem alarm disarm out - not used h2/5 RED / white trunk release out - not used h2/6 green door trigger in - to my all door trigger underneath seat harness h2/7 BLACK / YELLOW dome light supv out - Opted to not hook this up h2/8 BROWN / black horn honk - tap to horn h2/9 dark/blue status out - not used h2/10 pink ign out - to my ignition 1 along with the one on remote start harness h2/11 WHITE/ black aux3 out - not used h2/12 violet door trigger in - not used h2/13 WHITE/ violet aux1 out - not used h2/14 violet/black aux2 out - not used h2/15 ORANGE / black aux4 out - not used h2/16 brown brake shutdown in - tap to brake wire h2/17 grey hood pin - not used h2/18 violet yellow starter out - not used h2/19 blue instant trigger in - not used h2/20 grey/black diesel wait to start - not used h2/21 WHITE/ blue remote start/tt acvt in - not used h2/22 orange acc out - not used h2/23 violet/white tach in - not used h2/24 oem alarm out - not used remote start 10 pin heavy gauge connector h3/1 pink ign in/out - DB/LG ignition harness h3/2 RED / white fused ign2/flex relay in - not used h3/3 orange accessory out - BK/LG - ignition harness h3/4 violet start out Rd/LB Engine side of starter wire ignition harness h3/5 green starter in -- key side of cut starter wire h3/6 red ign in - tap to const 12v lt grn / YELLOW BCM h3/7 pink/white ign2 out - not used h3/8 pink/black flex relay in - not used h3/9 RED / black acc/starter in - tap to const 12v lt grn / YELLOW BCM the module was wired as per 2008 F350 any help would be greatly appreciated. Remote start is my task right now. I get a REMOTE START ERROR with nothing happening. Thanks DenKat

Are you getting any flashes from the parking lights to indicate the issue after you try to remote start?When all else fails, Read the Instructions

Boy, those ignition wire colors sure don't look right to me.  All the major sources show different ( and consistent ) color listings for your truck.  Did you test and verify them with a Digital Multi Meter?

Additionally, the PKALL needs to have a GWR ( Status Output ) connection from the Viper.  You listed both H2/9 and H2/3 as "Not Used"...

Did you program the Viper for Auto Trans?  Are you going to try to run in Virtual Tach Mode?

Soldering is fun!

h2/10 pink ign out - to my ignition 1 along with the one on remote start harness  BANG!

Don't use it!

howie as usual was rather harsh, the reason if you'll stop to think about it is that pink at H3/1 is giving a POS voltage while pink at H2/10 is going to ground. At the same time. Also no mention of the neutral safety switch to the black socket, N.B. I just flash some solder over those connections.Test before boxing up.

Hi Smokeman.. No I'm not getting any flashes And to Howie the pink on the auxilliary harness is negative and obviously other is positive. I`m an did electrical engineering in school and now I'm a General Contractor. So I should know that. LOL. Good call though AND KREY I do know how to program the remote to go to automatic. This remote seems 1 have a delayed reaction when arming and 2 delayed reaction when entering commands in options Either way. How do you change to automatic That particular pink is not being used in reference to Howie's comment. The issue here is I had copied and pasted someones listing and edited to make mine. I apologize. But here is exactly what I have happening: h1/1 red const 12v - tap to a const 12v which is in ignition harness h1/2 black grnd - chassis ground Bk BCM h1/3 brown siren out - connect to sirens red (black to ground) h1/4 WHITE/ brown park light isolation wire - not used h1/5 white park light out - out to parking light h1/6 orange ground when armed out - not used Door lock (THESE ARE TESTED AND WORK) 1 blue out - tap to neg unlock - Pnk/LG 2 empty 3 green - tap to neg lock- Pnk/YL Aux/shutdown/trigger harness, 24-pin connector h2/1 pink/white ign/flex relay out - not used h2/2 BLACK/ white neutral safety input - Run straight to grnd h2/3 blue white 2nd stat/rear defog out - not used h2/4 green black oem alarm disarm out - TO my disarm on truck h2/5 RED / white trunk release out - not used h2/6 green door trigger in - NOT used. I have a + door trigger in F350 as used below h2/7 BLACK / YELLOW dome light supv out - to my dome light which is GR/BLUE h2/8 BROWN / black horn honk - tap to horn h2/9 dark/blue status out - not used h2/10 pink ign out - not used h2/11 WHITE/ black aux3 out - not used h2/12 violet door trigger in - to door trigger drivers kick panel (I have + in my truck) h2/13 WHITE/ violet aux1 out - not used h2/14 violet/black aux2 out - not used h2/15 ORANGE / black aux4 out - not used h2/16 brown brake shutdown in - tap to brake wire h2/17 grey hood pin - not used h2/18 violet yellow starter out - not used h2/19 blue instant trigger in - not used h2/20 grey/black diesel wait to start - not used h2/21 WHITE/ blue remote start/tt acvt in - not used h2/22 orange acc out - not used h2/23 violet/white tach in - to my tach in drivers side above kick panel h2/24 oem alarm out - not used remote start 10 pin heavy gauge connector h3/1 pink ign in/out - DB/LG ignition harness h3/2 RED / white fused ign2/flex relay in - not used h3/3 orange accessory out - BK/LG - ignition harness h3/4 violet start out Rd/LB Engine side of starter wire ignition harness h3/5 green starter in -- key side of cut starter wire h3/6 red ign in - tap to const 12v lt grn / YELLOW BCM h3/7 pink/white ign2 out - not used h3/8 pink/black flex relay in - not used h3/9 RED / black acc/starter in - tap to const 12v lt grn / YELLOW BCM AS FOR PKALL (These I connected to same harness in ignition . ie ones going through transponder or PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM) RX (PURPLE / WHite) - To my RX (VIOLET/GREY) TX (Yellow/Black) - To my TX (Yellow/Orange) Ground while running (BLACK/ White) - To my ground black in ignition Ignition (Pink) - to my ignition wire (Blue gray) MY CONFUSION is here too. Apparently RX and TX could be reversed and second some people are saying this Ignition and ground should not go to this harness. Is this true I hope this explains well. Thanks folks alot for your help DenKat

Sorry for typos I quickly typed this.. eg. KREG instead of KREY thanks guysDenKat

The Blue/White wire from the PKALL should be connected to the Vipers' H2/9 Dark Blue (-) 200mA Status Output wire.

The PKALL Pink wire can go to the Viper H3/1 Pink wire, which continues on to the truck ignition harness.

Here is your listing :

h3/1 pink ign in/out - DB/LG ignition harness h3/2 RED / white fused ign2/flex relay in - not used h3/3 orange accessory out - BK/LG - ignition harness h3/4 violet start out Rd/LB Engine side of starter wire ignition harness h3/5 green starter in -- key side of cut starter wire h3/6 red ign in - tap to const 12v lt grn / YELLOW BCM h3/7 pink/white ign2 out - not used h3/8 pink/black flex relay in - not used h3/9 RED / black acc/starter in - tap to const 12v lt grn / YELLOW BCM

I think we are talking about a 2008 Ford F350.  Here is how it should go according to ReadyRemote :

( http://www.readyremote.com/main.asp?make=Ford&model=F350  )h3/1 pink ign in/out -         WHITE/ Orange @ ignition harness h3/2 RED / white fused ign2/flex relay       Red (fusible links C and D)  +    SJB, black 1 pin plug (H), pin 1  h3/3 orange accessory out -       BROWN / Yellow or Yellow/Orange  +  ignition switch, gray 10 pin plug, pin 7  ignition harness h3/4 violet start out        Blue/White  +  ignition switch, gray 10 pin plug, pin 10    Engine side of cut starter wireh3/5 green starter in --   Blue/White  +  ignition switch, gray 10 pin plug, pin 10    key side of cut starter wire h3/6 red ign in -              Red (fusible links C and D)  +    SJB, black 1 pin plug (H), pin 1  h3/7 pink/white ign2 -  set to ACC2        PURPLE / Green @ ignition harness     h3/8 pink/black flex relay in -      not used h3/9 RED / black acc/starter in -     Red (fusible links C and D)  +    SJB, black 1 pin plug (H), pin 1 

Definitely want to test / verify these wires.

Additionally, I would strongly recommend using the H2/17 grey hood pin wire with the hood pin supplied in the Viper kit.

It is a very good safety measure.

Can't help with the Viper programming via the remotes.  I took the easy way out and purchased a BitWriter.

Think that truck has Ford's infamous N.C. Door Triggers...

Soldering is fun!

KREG man you are smart i can tell. Even the info you`ve given me just gives me. Its too bad we don`t have the wiring available to some of us who can actually attack this project. I`m in the business of time and I appreciate your time a lot. Now the BitWriter would have been good to have. I`ll get my buddy who works at alarm shop to bring that with him. Question, should I be able to remote start the vehicle with key in assuming pkall is not programmed? I'm definitely going to try your suggestions and see how the go. As far as the main harness and aux harness of 5704, did they seem familiar to you? Thanks a lot man DenKat

One other thing is why isn't there any place to tell us where the TX and RX wires are on our cars. In my case the 2008 Ford F350. I had to ask someone on one of the forums for that. Or is that a secret for dealers and security folks. LOL. I actually saw those wires going into the anti theft system and presumed that they were along with a ground and ignition (4 pin harness) This I'm just curiousDenKat
