autopage, mercury mariner 2007

I need some help with my Autopage Remote Starter installation. In the installation manual(http://carmedia1.com/pdf/RSTKE900.pdf) they say so VIOLET wire should be connected to the low current start solenoid wire of the ignition switch harness, between START CUT RELAY and NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH(see picture). My question is: Do I have START CUT RELAY in my car and if I will connect this wire to the wire around the steering column(not sure yet which one: "Starter Positive Wire (+): Tan/Light Blue" or "Vehicle Ignition Wire (+): WHITE/ orange"), it will be before NSS? Thank you! Andrew

A basic answer, the neutral safety switch is only there on auto transmission vehicles. For your purposes the violet goes to the vehicle starter wire, tan/light blue.

Thank you Howie, but do you know if 2007 Mercury mariner has a START CUT RELAY??? Andrew

The starter cut relay would be part of an aftermarket alarm. If you don't have one, simply connect as Howie states. Don't overthink it...Mike M2

Thank you for quick answer. I have more questions if I can... Brown wire should be connected to accessory output: "Brown Wire –Accessory Output (Heater /AC Output) Connect the BROWN wire to the accessory wire in the vehicle that powers the climate control system.    7 An accessory wire will show + 12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the “ACCESSORY” or “ON” and “RUN” positions, and will show 0 Volts when the key is turned to the “OFF” and “START” or “CRANK” position. There will often be more than one accessory wire in the ignition harness. The correct accessory wire will provide power to the vehicle’s climate control system. Some vehicles may have separate wires for the blower motor and the air conditioning compressor. In such cases, it will be necessary to add a relay to power the second accessory wire. " Do you know if my car needs a relay? Andrew

if you have only one ACC wire, then no.

How I can tell if I have one or two wires???

Test. Q., are you up for this?

Hello everybody!!! Anyone of you is familiar with AutoPage remote Starters systems like C3-RSTKE-900 ??? Here is it's install manual: http://carmedia1.com/pdf/RSTKE900.pdf I have some doubts reading this manual like on page 9 - about connector H10, pin #3: "H10/3 Pink wire – (-) 200mA Programmable Output    2 Steps Unlock Output (Factory default setting)    (See System Feature C – 1 Programming)    The 2 steps unlock feature will work for the most fully electronic door lock circuit. The vehicle must have an electronic door lock switch (not the lock knob or key switch), which locks and unlocks all of vehicle's doors. When wired for this feature, press the disarm (or unlock) button one time will disarm the system and unlock the driver's door only. If, press disarm (or unlock) button two times within 3 seconds, the system will disarm and all doors will unlock.    Factory Security Disarm Signal Output – This wire is designed to disarm a factory installed security system. This wire sends a negative (-) 1 seconds pulse upon a remote start and remote door unlocking. Some factory systems must be disarmed to allow remote starting. In most cases, this wire may be connected directly to the factory alarm disarm wire. The correct wire will show negative ground when the key is used to unlock the doors or trunk. This wire is usually found in the kick panel area in the wiring harness coming into the car body from the door. Start Status (Shock Sensor By-Pass Control) Output–    This wire is designed to by-pass shock sensor module. This wire will supply an output at all times the remote start is operating plus an additional 3 seconds after the remote start unit turn off. " and page 16, H7 3pin connector: and next pages. I'm not sure how to interpret it and how to wire it. Thank you for any help. Andrew
