dei 561r

i have a 1997 chevy silverado it has power locks it. it does not have an alarm. i have attempted to install the valet 561r.

as most of you know the instruction manual is ok except it doesnt go into great detail.

so here is the wires i cant figure out.

white w/ blue stripe, white w/ red stripe, the entire satellite conector (Blue=status output, orange=accessory trigger, purple=starter trigger, pink=ignition trigger.

here is what is hooked up

pink w/stripe +12 ignition, pink +12 ignition, Purple +12 starter, violet w/ stripe-tach input, Black w/ stripe to the toggle switch toggle switch grounded, brown to the brake switch,Gray to the hood pin,

here is what i have it doing when you push the start button it flashes the lights, and you can here the fuel pump and the ignition click. if you go ahead and start the truck while it is doing this with the key you can not shut it off without unplugging the unit even with the key out. if you push the unlock button the unit just clicks.

i connected the brown wire to the brake. pressing the button just makes a bunch of clicking noises it does not start the vehicle at all. the ignition itself comes on but not the starter. i hooked the lock wires to the blue and brown wire in the drivers door.

it does not have factory keyless entry.

thanks Dan

1. What wire did you connect to on the brake switch?

one more note when the remote starter is doing its clicking thing if you press the brake it will stop.

well all is well with the keyless entry portion of the install. Now with the remote start issue. i have the pink wire and the pink white wire hooked up to ignition 1 and ingnition 2 in my ignition harness. i have the purple wire going to the starter wire. when i push the button im still getting no starter. but i am getting fuel pump and ignition under the hood. if i push the brake it will stop everything as advertised. push the start button the truck will not start if you start it with the key and then turn it off the remote starter will keep it running until you hit the brake pedal.  what am i overlooking? please help i am trying not to go spend a whole lot of money for something i simply overlooked.

i think i have figured out what is missing but not how to fix the problem. what do you hook up the sattelite connector too. it has a pink (-), a Purple (-), a orange (-), and a blue (-). they all read -200MA and say ignition turn on and starter turn on. and status output.

ok well i went and got a new module for this thing. now before i put it in could someone please explain exactly what wires i have to hook up and where. i dont want to mess up another module.

this is what i have so far. this is all the thick harness.

pink (+) tied into one ignition wire. 

pink w/ stripe (+) tied into second ignition wire. 

red tied into constant 12V. 

Purple wire (+) tied into the starter wire. 

Black white neutral safety (-) grounded thru the toggle switch. 

Violet w/ stripe to tach wire coming out of the ECM module. 

Brown to the brake switch. 

Gray to the hood pin switch. 

PRIMARY WIRING HARNESS ((Black (-) to ground),  White to the parking lights).  NOT USED i have Light green with black,  GREEN / WHITE, Yellow, WHITE/ blue, gray Black, WHITE/ red, RED / white. These are all factory disarm/arm, ignition out to alarm, wait to start, +/- activation pulse, and channel 2 validity. no of which i need " I THINK "  .  i also still have the 4 pin satellite cable which circuit city said i dont need. it has status output, accessory trigger, starter trigger, and ignition trigger.

that about covers my nightmare. hopefully you can shed some light on this or tell me im good to go and ill put the new module in.

thanks in advance for all the help.

Here is the update.

i now have everything working as advertised.

i went and had them give me a new module and that fixed the problem. i knew i wasnt loosing my mind about wiring things lol.

if anyone has questions about this specific system i now know what it takes to make it work.

thanks for all the help along the way..
