1999 civic remote starter

hi everyone.. i have a civic 1999 hatch with automatic transmission, i recently bought a compustar remote starter combo with cm5000 brain.. here is what did.. 1 red - (+) 12 constant) i connect this wire together with the RED / white wire in the 12v constant white wire in the ignition harness. 2 GREEN / WHITE - (+) parking light i connect this wire in the RED / black wire in the drivers kick panel. 3 RED / white (12v constant) it has a separated RED / white wire prewired to 2nd relay it has violet and green wire(i did not connect the violet and green wire. 4 white (+) accessories i connect this to WHITE/ black wire in the ignition harness. 5 violet (-) prewired to starter kill relay 6 yellow (+) starter (prewired to starter kill relay) which has yellow and yellow/balack wire, i cut the BLACK/ white wire and connect yellow wire from the stareter kill relay going to the starter side and the yellow/black wire from the starter kill relay going to the key side. 7 green and red wire (+) red wire is also prewired to the starer kill relay and i connect the green wire to yellow wire in the ignition harness. 8 body ground brake input - i connect this to the GREEN / WHITE wire in the brake pedal. tach/alternator input - i connect this in the light blue wire in the ignition coil. i already cut the wire green loop inside the brain for my transmission. the remote responds to the brain because when i press the lock/unlock it show in the lcd screen.. but when i press the remote start button it says start er01. what wrong with my connections.. please help me... thank you very much..

At a quick glance what have you connected to the vehicle's black yellow ignition wire?

Just had a look at the wiring diagram, the green should not go to the yellow which is a second accessory, it should go to the vehicle BLACK / YELLOW. For the second accessory (vehicle yellow) look at page 14.

yellow wire is the second ignition according to the wiring info of the vehicle..and i will remove the green wire from the brain and solder it in the BLACK / YELLOW wire in the ignition harness.. thank you..

It's actually a 2nd ACC though some alarm companies list it incorrectly as a second ignition. The point is it has absolutely NOTHING to do with actually starting the vehicle. As far as I'm aware of it controls things like wipers etc. Glad you listened and that should cure your problem.

thank you again for the reply..i will try to reattach the green wire to the BLACK / YELLOW wire in the ignition..i'll post again what will happen...

i already reattached the green wire to BLACK / YELLOW wire..here's what happen... when i lock the car with the remote and start it using the key while it is in lock mode the car won't start then when i unlock it and start using the it starts..is it normal? but the still start er01..what is the possible cause of start er01.. thank you..

you have not programmed tach. start the car with the key, step on the brake pedal, press and hold the start button on the remote. this will make the unit learn tach. and yes the compustar starter kill works when you lock the vehicle and it also disables starter when remote started (anti grind)Ted

thank you for the reply.. i already try to make the unit learn the tach..but when i press the start button in the remote i also get start er01, did i connect the wrong wire in the tach or i need to program the remote to make tach sensing the default setting..and one more thing i have a engine light on which is the MAP sensor is it possible that MAP sensor is interfering with the tach learning?

start error 1 means you have not programmed tach prior to first startup. you dont just press and hold the start button on the remote. read my instructions again. car must be running with key, press on the brake pedal and HOLD IT. press and hold the start button on the remote. Unit will click and leg go of button/brake pedal. try to RS. Ted
