viper 5901 remote start

im installing a viper 5901 remote start in my 2002 honda civic, the full alarm functions work, the remote start wont, it wont let me enable Manuel transmission mode, and when i try to remote start, the remote says remote start error, tach signal is learned, i need help with my heavy gauge h3 harness right now i have red (ignition 1 input), RED / white(flux relay input), and RED / black(accessory/starter relay input) all hooked to White(12 volts) orange(+ accessory output) connected to BLACK/ red(accessory) pink(+ ignition 1 input/output) connected to BLACK / YELLOW(ignition) green(starter input, key side of the starter kill) connected to BLACK/ white(starter) none of the thers are hooked up, i think my problem is i need to cut the starter wire (BLACK/ white) and hook green to key side and violet to car side hoping that fixes the problem, but what is a flex relay and do i have one, i didnt connect the pink/white and pink/black wires also, can someone put in order steps i do when begining the remote start program our of these -tach learn -enable mts mode -immobilizer learn sequence what do i do first? all help apriciated

Yes. Cut the starter wire and connect it as you described. Green to Key Side and Violet to  Starter Side.

The unit should be set in the Manual mode from the factory.

Tach wire need to be connected and tach learning is on page 30 of the installation guide. Note: Virtual Tach cannot be used in MTS Manual Transmission Mode.

What kind of immobilizer are you using?

When all else fails, Read the Instructions

im using the dei 555i immobilizer unit, its the one without using a key i know it comes in manuel transmisson mode but do i have to do the learn thing (door open, brake, hand brake etc thing)

update, fixed the starter wire, got mts mode enabled, but now i cant get immobilizer to learn key, the led flashes but never stops, when i try to remote start, it cranks but wont turn over, help?

how do you have the bypass wired up?

also, sometimes if you cant program it with the master black key, try the valet key.

this is the only key i have, when i have the key in ignigtion but off position, it will remote start, but thats it, the led wont stop flashing

Sounds like the remote start part is working. just need to get the immobelizer working. As Tedmond suggested a different key or maybe a different immobelizer might do it.  Tedmond got me on the Fortin brand and I have not had any issues with them.When all else fails, Read the Instructions

Your tach wire is a blue, either at the inst. panel or under the hook terminating in a plug loosely wired to an engine bay loom adjacent to the suspension turret, it's right hand side over here, wire up ALL the ignitions and throw away the 555. Either get another key (chipped) and use a 556U or carefully remove the chip from your key and after ascertaining a working position, secure to black antenna ring around the ignition switch with an acrylic glue. Smokeman and Tedmond's comments are quite correct, Ted is THE Honda man.

i sure do know Honda's but they are very easy to do. Too bad i dont have the guts to touch a BMW JUSTT yet

if only i had the confidence like howie

Talking about confidence, I was doing a tracking contract last week, found a Peugeot 308 Estate with a bad tracker, someone had installed a Parrot BT kit and mounted the tracker under the glove box, bad place AND that vehicle has a metal film windscreen. I also noticed the lead to the display was being trapped by the bezel around the factory screen. Being over confident, I decide to remove the bezel and free off the lead. I decide to remove the factory radio to get at the base of the bezel to free the cable. remember this is a bloody Peugeot as loved by ALL installers this side of the pond, it's the middle of the afternoon and 80f. The radio (Philips,Blaupunkt or Clarion) is jammed in, it wont budge so I push a bojo tool under the bezel, ended up catching the corner of the screen and f*****g it, cost = £540 ($840). The rule, don't have TOO much confidence you can screw yourself!
