motorcycle alarm on scooter

Hey scoots..I am back..but it's late so I can't deal with the diagram till tomorrow.

But your last question scares me...lol....just don't hook up the start wire..you really couldn't figure that???  lol/..tooo obvious I guess...

Talk to you tomorrow

It looks to me that the Pink and Grey alarm wires are a starter/ignition kill.  If these wires are suppost to keep the bike from starting when the alarm is activated, then they should interrupt the Brown wire at your Zumas ignition switch.  The Black wire at the ignition switch is grounded, so you should be able to hook the alarm grounds to it.  And of course Red is 12v+  at the Ign switch.  It is fused at  7A but that should be OK to hook the alarm red to it.

You know what to do with the p. lights-  That should get the alarm working.

That leaves blue and orange.  I agree that testing these wires with a multimeter is a good idea. I'd hook it all up on the bike and then figure out those two wires, if you need them.

The alarm diag says the blue wire should connect to the positive starter wire on the bike, but the Zuma starter relay gets 12v+ from the Brown Ignition wire, and is activated buy a ground from the start button.

Is the blue wire an output for a remote start? Or is it an input to set off the alarm?

Same with the orange wire. Input or output?  Diag says to hook up to a positive output on bike.  Does this tie in to what the alarm forum guys were saying?

ah cool..I am glad to see some other members providing support with this alarm.

It's really a shame beacuse an alarm..as well as a remote start should be a cake walk on a scooter...but since the directions have us guessing and predicting and having to perform different tests to check functions..kinda smears the icing off the cake and spits on it.

But I have faith between all of us we can get help you in getting this to work without damaging anything. You will learn alot during this so it can't be a bad thing. As well you will learn patience and how not to fear what you work on...no matter what...you must believe you are smarter then what you are working on or..you have failed before you started.

Just keep posting questions as you need and we will try our best.

Another user from the provoscooter forum also made a statement long time ago when helping someone how to install a 9 wire alarm for scooters.  He had the same model of scooter as I do. 

Direct Quote: "The Blue wire from the alarm would go to the hot wire on the starter... (I don't use this as I have to starter with my over range tranny")"

What is a over range tranny? Does this help in figuring out what the blue wire is for?  His alarm diagram is attached to this post

I will need to go out tomorrow and buy some resistors for the bench test.  So hopefully, I'll have some more info about the blue and orange wires soon.

I think that diagram has some problems as well.  The grey wire in that diagram SHOULD be connected to the ignition side of the BLACK/ white wire but it is not indicated like that on the diagram.  Seems like there's a general trend of crappy wiring diagrams for motorcycle alarms out there.  Anyways, I'll get those bench tests done asap and post my findings. 

Another difference from his wiring diagram to mine is that there's nothing connecting to his green wire coming from the ignition.  On my diagram, the black alarm wire connects to that location.  Does this matter?
