viper 791xv toyota tacoma double cab

ok i got the basics hooked up, but having trouble figuring out what some of the wires are for remote start.

primary harness H! 12 pin connector, the WHITE/ blue wire says remote start activation input..where does this connect?

remote start secondary harness H3 5 pin connector, gray (-)hood input zone one, goes to hood pin switch, i got a mercury switch under hood came with unit, do i ground one wire and hook other to the grey wire? if so it dont work.

here is the pdf for the alarm.  http://www.directed.com/guides/manuals/ig/viper/N564V_6-03.pdf

does the nutral safty swith have to be hooked up to operate remote start?

thanks for all your help

Funny, I am dealing with the same thing on a 1996 4Runner.  I am installing a Viper 550ESP which also has remote start.  I had another viper alarm in there already to installing the alarm part was easy.  The alarm works perfectly so no problems at all there.  Now I am having trouble with the remote start part.  I hooked up all the relays and it does not seem to work (I do not have the hoodpinswitch, brake switch, tach input or neutral safety hooked up yet.....but it did not seem that this would prevent it from starting).

Here are my relay hookups:

Red => white

Red => WHITE/ red

Pink => BLACK/ red

Pink => BLACK / YELLOW

Orange => Blue/Red

Purple => Black (w/ sliver dots)

I can take a pic if someone wants to see.

For the hood switch I found it needs to be a good ground to set off the alarm.  Make sure to grind off any paint under the pin and then repaint the assy after to ensure you don't get any rust.  Also you can skip grinding the paint and just run a second wire that connects the assy to the negative on the batt.  Either should work well.

Thanks for the tip on the neutral safety switch!

i got mine from the back of the dash, belive it was GREEN / WHITE, its also on the right fender under hood at the ignitor.

this is on a 2001 tacoma double cab..4 door.

most of the time it locks fine..always unlocks, but on occasion it wont lock, seems like after it sits all nite it wont lock back till after i mess a bit, but once it starts workin again you can lock and unlock 100 times without fail.

know what the issue could be? i dont know exact wire colors used but there was 4 wires that would work the lock and unlock its neg. pulse. but 2 of the wires wouldnt work with the alarm and the other 2 would. if that makes sense. testing with a test light..touch he wire and it would lock or unlock on eack of the 4 wires but the alarm would only work on 2 specific ones.

think it could be a child lock issue?
