Viper 791xv Remote Start Fail

yes, I had a look at the bonnet pin and as you guys prob already know it goes ground when opened. So me just leaving the wire sitting in the engine bay all tapped up will not be stopping the remote start process.

Next thing to check this afternoon is the brake wire, not sure how i could stuff this up. If i am getting error=6 does it have to be either the brake or the bonnet pin. can it be anything else?

Also, i mentioned I had cut the antenna off the 556U and used the standard 2 wire WRX antenna. Do you know if this works in a wrx? Or should i reverse that? (only after checking the brake wire, then unpluggin the 556U and using a key)

thankyou all for the help

Another issue i have is, I have found the Neutral position wire et the ECU. It gives 5v when in Neutral. How can i interface this 5v with the Neutral ground wire on the viper? I imagine using a relay but I am figgering i will need a 5v relay? (not 12v) can anyone point me to the correct relay please as I have looked locally in my town and can't find anything, nor helpful knowledge for that matter...

cheers

Bump

Thankyou!

also i should note that my turbo timer feature doesnt work either...

It sounds like I am missing a starter wire somewhere? do i need to run any wires to the starter etc?

I keep reading a "Starter Kill Relay" or something similar, I know there an option of running one on H1/1 loom. But are they talking about a different relay?

cheers

For the nuetral safety wire you should be able to hook that up directly to the Viper system. The Viper is looking for a ground on the wire and when there is a ground it will start. Wire in a relay for your nuetral safety and use this diagram. This will reverse the (+) nuetral position voltage that you have on the Subaru to a (-)...... just hope the 5 volts will trigger the relay.

On the subject of the vehicle not starting, cut your brake wire connection to the unit and then try to remote start it. If it stays running, then you have residual voltage on the brake line. You will need to wire in a relay like this.

ok I found the hoodpin wire to be getting ground somehow. I cut that wire at the alarm brain temp to see if it helps...

The remote start now get the car to fire for 1 sec then dies striaght away. I check the LED flashs after a diog and it was Low or No RPM.

I changed it to volt sense with the LOW threshold. The car stills only run for 1 sec.

LED changed to 4 flashes= Transmitter shutdown or optional button. ( i dont have the button installed)

I am guessing the next best thign to check is the 566u. I will disconnect it, insert key and giv the remote start a go.

Does the key need to be turned or just left in OFF pos?

thankyou all + netZ for ya great help

its getting alot closer now!

thankyou for the reply.

On my 1999 aussie model, it appears i had to use the alternate method because I wasn't able to put the new 566U antenna infront of the stock wrx antenna. The install diagram of the 556U shows the antenna having to be placed in front of the stock one to function. How are you able to get the new one in front and to stay there?, or do you just wrap it around the ignition barrell behind the stock antenna?

I have the NPS worked out. netZ has helped me use a 1n400x series diode to protect the ECU using the hoodpin method...

thankyou for the help

I reconnected the 556U antenna, I found aplace around the ignition barrell.

The remote start now works great!! thankyou asll for your help...

Nex thing to do is the door lock unlock.

How is this down easiest in a wrx?

cheers

LOCK (-) wire is a RED / white at the integrated module to the left of the steering column in the gray plug.

UNLOCK (-) wire is a yellow/red at the integrated module to the left of the steering column in the gray plug.
