Gentlemen,
Challenge to say at least… I certainly need your help on this install.
Lots of time passed since I have done this and cars are naturally not the same any more.
I just installed starter on 2007 Acura TL Type S with CompuStar by Firstech build on CM-6200 S controller with RF-2W703-SH color LCD remote controls. For bypass of immobilizer I used ADS Blade HA-AL. Recommendations by some of you were great. Thank you. This is a really cool system.
However, I am facing minor issues and hope that you can help me spot where I missed tapping into original car systems. At least it looks to me like I for sure missed tapping into right car wires.
I collected few wiring diagrams and documentation for the product for this installation. I also uploaded it all here so others can avoid delays and pain. Some of people show wiring for 2004-2008 Acura TL differently than others . Some sources do not show wire colors to match the car. Even original Honda’s 2004-2008 Acura TL service manual does not have colors matching the car. I cannot upload it here cause it is 12 MB long PDF. If for any reason you need it, please let me know and I send it to you otherwise.
Bottom line is that I am not 100% sure that I am tapping into the proper wires on the vehicle.
I have following problems:
1. If I use remote start to start the car, (works as expected) I get head lights on solid – even with light switch in auto mode setting. Disarm starts during cranking. Post the start CS6200 rearms with engine running it is normal. Car runs for 15 min and stops. Rearm occurs again – normal.
2. Driver’s display pops error code from B categories. In 10 starts I get errors displayed 7-8 times. All codes related to MICU loosing communications with other modules. Those are: B1005, B1006, B1007, B1008, B1010. B1005-MICU lost communication with Relay control module, B1006-MICU lost communication with Door Multiplex Control Unit (door lock switch message) B1007 calls for headlight switch messages ) and so on. Clearing messages redisplays “NO” meaning condition is cleared and restarting with a key does not reproduce a problem. Sometimes I start using remote starter and no errors are displayed at all.
3. When vehicle is remote started, I get no fan, heat (blower is off) regardless what HVAC mode I leave turned on. I believe it should use previously left temperature setting before the car is left by driver. Same applies to AC left on with temperature left for summer time. Heated seats or mirrors don’t get power while remote started ether. I get the audio system on if I leave it on before standard key shut down.
4. I also noticed that without a remote started used after I enter the car and use original key to start it, engine starts normally and about 15 seconds post the start my dome lights blink once long (about 1 full second blink)and once short blink. No errors get displayed. Everything else works fine. All other functions operate normally meaning nothing else gets interrupted by CM6200 S module’s inputs.
Your help and hints are certainly appreciated. I thank you for sharing your experience and brain power. Not enough of mine for sure (-:
