It seems I have everything else installed properly. Everything from the additional relays to the starter itself.

My only problem is the heater fan does not come on when the car starter has been activated. The wire controlling this is the Orange from both the car and the Prostart. The car is a 92 Olds Cutlass Supreme, and is owned by my fiancee's Grand mother, understand my urgency. The heater controls are the advanced ones, where there is an automatic feature etc... I am not sure this would have any bearing on the out come. 

Was wondering if the gurus on this forum could lend a hand and some knowledge.

Thanks

You've missed the second accesory wire, it is PURPLE / white. there is also a second ignition that is blue/white, but the car won't start if you've missed that one.

I have not been very clear in what I am trying to say.

EVERYTHING but the heater motor/fan works. The fan works fine when the car is running with the key, but when started with the Prostart the fan will not operate. Sort of in part negating the reason for buy the starter.

Car starts fine, stays running, that is not the issue, it might be the wiring for the heater fan or accessories I have selected incorrectly, Orange in the car harness.

Cheers

Sounds like you don't have any power going to the accessory wire of the vehicle from the remote start unit.

Actually there is 12 volts at the accessory wire, both when started by the Prostart, and when the car is running by the key.

I have just tried to trouble shoot the problem with no luck,

HELP PLEASE!!!

The wiring info I have is that there are two accessory wires on your vehicle.

1. Orange

2. Violet/White

Both of these must be connected to remote start unit.

I saw mention of that for 94 and up, but why not give it a try. Here comes one of the more predictable questions.

How do I connect the second accessory wire to the Prostart? Do I have to use another relay?  If I do these Prostarts are one of the biggest ripoffs I've seen in hidden costs. The Bulldog I installed on the same year of car (92 Buick Regal GS), took me three hours and EVERYTHING worked the first time. And to add it was my first time installing anything of this nature. Whew, I feel better.

Thanks for your help in advance.

I think this is what you need to power a second accessory wire remember always to double check with multimeter.<"http://www.velocitymotorsport.com/images/install_notes/2nd_accessory_relay.jpg" border="0">
