I have been reading up on installing a remote start on my 91 caprice for a while now I just haven't heard about where to get the power for the relay from do I hook all my relays up to my ignition 12volt supply and whats the best connectors to use to hook up my relay.

Not sure what you mean by relay. Most newer remote start systems have built in relays. Most commonly you connect the relay wiring into your ignition switch wiring. Constant, ignition, accessory, and starter wires are all found here. Always solder and tape your connections.

have posted before about this but can't get a straight question I am installing a viper791 on a 91 caprice I want to know does this alarm require relays for the ignition wires or are they already wired up in the relay satellite.

I just finished hooking up my viper 791 on my 91 caprice classic and everything works but when i hit the remote start button nothing happens double checked connections and wires and all are good all my wires are soldered together could someone help me figure out what i did wrong this is my first remote start car starts fine with key or was I suppose to put a relay on each of the ignition wires because i have posted before and someone said that i didn't need them since I had the relay satellite pack

you don't need any additional relays just the ones that came with the remote start.

try starting the car with the key the hit the remote start button wait till the relay clicks and parking lights come on then take the key out if it stays running then double check starter relay wires
