ahhh, thanks! I'll try checking that. I guess that's what was happening because I wasn't getting continuity when the car was off (between the pink wire and the ign wire of the car).

Is this the same thing for the pink/white (secondary ignition) wire on the relay satellite, too?

Hey joelr....as for the 5-speed part of your question, installing remote starts in a manual

is a touchy subject, so I'm not going to answer that one. They have remote starters that

are specifically designed for manuals, and I don't think the 550esp is one of them.

Anyway.......(1)Yea, I think you can just leave the Wait To Start (deisel) wire alone

....tape it off. (2)The secondary ignition output (pink/white) wire has to go to the

Integra's second igntion wire. In my car, the BLACK / YELLOW wire is the primary ignition

and the blue/white is the secondary igntion wire. (3) Climate Control....I'm assuming

you mean the orange wire from the remote starter. If when you remotely start the car,

you want the heater or air conditioner to come on (which I'm sure you do), then yes,

you have to hook up this wire. In my Integra, I hooked it up to the Yellow wire in

the ignition harness, which controls the "accessory blower" for the air and heat.

Post more questions if you got 'em. Below is a link for the '92 Integra's wiring.

You can install any automatic remote starter in to any vehicle but you run the risk of having it in gear. You may " always " put it in nuetral, but it only takes one time and you'll regret it afterwards. You can put safety features that will ensure that you have the parking brake on ( ground the system to the e-brake ). You can put a magnetic switch in the shifter that will not engage the system if it is grounded at the shifter by the switch. Otherwise if there are no precaustion being taken, I too would highly suggest not to put in a remote starter into a manual without proper precaustions being taken to ensure the safety of the driver and others around the vehicle at time of starting.

hey cp the ignition wire in vehicles rests at ground and switches to 12 volts when the key is in the run position and start position this wire should not drop more than a few 10's of a volt while cranking. the second ignition is used to power up circuits for abs,tranny"s,airbags,etc this wire has to be connected sothat you dont get an error light on the dash the light may come up because the second ign is used to power the ecu and this monitors whateever that wire is used for like airbags ,transmition control units etc, so if this wire was not connecte dthe ecu will think that the tranny,airbag or whatever was malfunctioning and display a warning light.Does your alarm passively arm? if so your ignition wire is operating properly. you may have a break in the valet wire somwhere that you cant see, double check it make sure that one wire is getting ground from the rermote starter if it has no ground on one wir ethe unit cannot go into valet mode. The valet switch works by ground pulses the unit should be sending a ground on one of those wires,when you press the valet button it completes the path for the ground to flow back to the brain.

Greetings Jeff. I tried troubleshooting this past weekend on my system. Tried the wiggling of the wires to see if there are loose connections. Nothing was going off, with the ignition on or off. The relay seemed fine, I wrapped it with electrical tape thinking maybe the moisture is affecting it. i dont know what else to look for. All connections are solid. Should i wrap wireswith more tape? I worked on this Sun afternoon and it was warm. Its funny that the system works perfect during warm weather, but when the cold and rain comes around it acts up. This is very frustrating. Hope you have any other tips. Thank you Jeff.

thank you
