1.  How do I hook up the "negative ground out from remote starter" (Brown wire) if my remote start unit does not have a "ground when running output"? All I have are Pulsed ground before start, Pulsed ground after start, Pulsed ground after shutdown, Ground output during start( crank).

2.  If my remote start unit has a 2nd ignition output, what do I do with the Pink 16ga wire?

My vehicle is a 2002 Silverado

Use the Ground output during start( crank).Make sure that this wire has (-) current throughout the remote starte sequence.

The 2 nd ignition wire on the RS unit is to control a relay that will energize the WHITE wire on the truck. You need to hook up a relay in this configuration in order for that wire to work with the WHITE one on the truck:

  • 87 & 85 : Fused 12 volts constant
  • 86 : Ground out when running wire
  • 30 : To WHITE wire on truck
  • 87a : NOT USED

The PINK wire is your primary ignition wire that you need to hook up to the IGNITION wire on the RS unit.

I installed my Prestige APS-685 in my 2002 silverado today but I cant get it to work.  It will get the signal and turn on the lights and engage the starter for a few seconds and then stop, and after about fifteen seconds it tries again automaticly. I have my tach wire hooked up behind my instrument cluster. I also tried connecting it to one of the coils.  My owners manual says that the tach rate has to be programmed.  I went through the sequence as in the manual and the unit responded like it accepted the signal by flashing the lights, but when I try to start the vehicle it just turns over sounds like it wants to start and then shuts off.  The remote starter has a diagnostics setting and it tells me that there is a low or no tach signal.   I did not hook up the wire for my IPPME that is supposed to go to the second ignition output because according to the directions if your remote start unit has a second ignition output you dont have to.  (Could this be the problem why it tries to start but will not)?   I hooked up the brown  wire from my IPPME to the "ground when cranking" output so I don't know if this is part of the problem either(shouldn't that wire have to be grunded the entire time the vehicle runs by the remote start module)?  After trying to start the pickup by remote I can't even start it with my key for a while then it will start right up.  Does anyone have any ideas?

what you have to do is learn the tach again and keep the valet switch held until the lights stop flashing then you will know that the tach is hooked up and learned the audiovox units take soemtimes a while to learn tach so redo steps and then you should be ok.

Use this TEST :

Take the BROWN  wire from the IPPME module and temporarily ground this wire to the frame of the truck with alligator clips or whatever. Now try to start the truck with the remote control after you have programmed the tach.

POST YOUR RESULTS.

Jeff, I tried grounding the BROWN wire with a jumper like you suggested and the second I hooked it up my IPPME module to the ground it clicked like a relay was energized. Is this normal?  If so I take it that it has to stay energized as long as the truck is running on the remote start module so I will have to find another way to hook the BROWN wire up so that it stays energized while running under remote start.  Am I correct?

Jon,  in my diagnostics mode of the APS-685 there is a code for not haveing the tach signal programmed.  When I ran the diagnostics check I don't get that code instead I get the code for low, or no tach signal.  Is this still posible if my tach is not programmed correctly?

Your problem is that the wire that you have as your GROUND OUT WHEN RUNNING is not grounding the entire duration that the remote starter has control of your truck. This is very important because as long as the RS unit has control of the truck , that BROWN wire needs to see a GROUND signal. The BROWN wire has to loose the GROUND signal after you take over the truck with the key and will not have a GROUND signal again until remote start sequence has been activated again.

Jeff, any ideas how I can make that wire ground for the entire duration that the RS unit is running my truck?  My unit only has pulsed to ground outputs before start, during cranking, after shutdown,and after start.

Found a wire for you !! It's LIGHT BLUE Wire: Ignition 3 / Shock Disable Output. This is the ground out when running wire for transponder bypass use.
