I am on my first install of a clifford 50.7, it is in a ford f-350 7.3 diesel four door with keless entry.

I have one wire that I don't know where it goes, a WHITE/ blue (-) input for the remote start?  Seems the remote start needs a negative pulse to "activate"?  Is this my problem?  Where does this wire get the pulse it needs to activate the remote start?  Where does it hook up?

All is well as far as the alarm goes (i think), it all works except the remote start.  The remote start will activate (according to the remote), and i can hear the relays but that is it.  I have it set to a 15 sec delay instead of the wait to start wire. 

Please help this is killing me!

White blue is irrelevant. If you've connected it up correctly, ground it twice and the R/S will activate. Sounds more like you have a by-pass problem.
Try it with the key in the ignition. If it starts you've done something wrong with the by-pass. If it still doesn't start, you've done something else wrong. Also wire for tach not virtual tach.

I just tried it and it did remote start with the key in the on position.  I noticed you said ground it (twice) explain that please.  It did also attempt another start (starter grind) after it auto started. 

thanks for your help

After trying it a few more times, I must have been mistaken on the starter trying to engage again.  I never heard it again.  The truck starts right up on the remote start if the key is on, I let it run the entire 12 min and it will not kill the engine when time expires either.  If I try to remote start with the key out of the ignition and wait a minute and then stick the key in and turn it on it starts right up.

Also when I get out and shut the door, if I arm the alarm it tells me that a door is open (the interior dome light is still on) if I wait for it to go out it arms fine.  When I disarm the alarm the interior light doesn't come on like it did with the keyless entry.  Not that big of a deal just wondering if it was an easy fix?  If not I'll leave it alone.

Thanks

Insert the key in the ignition cylinder and DONT TURN IT. Try remote starting. If the vehicle starts then the problem lies in the bypass. Try reprogramming, make sure all the wires are properly connected. The blue/white wire is for when you install the alarm system as an Wdditional component in another system. when you pulse this wire 2 times to ground it will activate the remote starter just as if you pressed the start button on the remote. The reason the alarm is telling you the door is open is becuase the vehicle is equipped with exit delay dome light and your connecting your door trigger to the domelight wire. The only way I know of to bypass this is to get the door triggers independantly at the switches. What bypass are you using?

There you go, sneakycyber has said it all, take it from there. The reason it still starts for up to a minute is because the factory transponder immobiliser has about a minute's internal memory once the power has been removed. (Static or internal capacitance) When testing I always remove the key from the vehicle and wait 5 minutes.

To the best of knowledge there is no bypass, is this something that is programmed or an additional piece of hardware?  I do not have a chip key or factory alarm, therefore I didn't think I needed to bypass anything.  Is there something within the keyless that needs bypassed?  Please explain this "bypass" for my truck a little further. 

I've tried remote starting the truck without turning the key and it doesn't do anything, I hear the relays but that is it.  When the remote start is acting correctly should it act just like the key has been turned?  When I turn the key the dash lights go through their checks, the wait to start light comes on and times out, the fuel pump comes on all that good stuff!  When the remote start is activated none of this happens, just the relays clicking.

Thanks
