intellistart 4 problems

First post here but been reading a lot about installation First alarm/remote start install Car: 1995 Honda Civic 2-Door Coupe (US) Manual Trans Alarm: Clifford Avantguard 5.1 I installed the AG5.1 and all turned out good (i think) Car used to have Intelliguard 700IQ installed Installed the Intellistart MT mode (BLACK/ green not connected) short stop works brake shut off works parking brake safety works clutch bypass seems to work because it cranks Problem is when I try to remote start, engine cranks but dies right away and alarm siren goes on any info or help is greatly appreciated TIA

Does your ignition wire (larger AWG BLACK / YELLOW at ignition switch) see 12v before the vehicle goes to crank?I drink current, eat ohms, and bleed voltage

check the shutdown diagnostics, that should give you some indication as to where the problem may be.Ted

thanks for the input guys Ill check those out this weekend and get back with my findings and one more question, can i extend the dataport cable? im planning to add smart windows and might have to put SW4 module some other area of vehicle. worried data cable is not going to be long enough. forgot to add: - i have DEI battery back-up also (not sure if that matters though LOL) - i also have the cliff net wizard (consumer) but scared to plug it in because i read some about the problems with G5/IS4 on it thanks again

You can extend, only 2 wires, though a 530t is better than an SW4. I seem to remember having a similar problem with an Integra, I think ACC1 or 2 might need to be relay disconnected during rem start. Can you list what you joined to where, otherwise we can't help you. N.B. Whizz is totally incompatible with G5

I'm guessing ignition wire incorrectly wired, N.B. How do you know brake shut-off and parking brake safety work if you can't make it R/S in the first place?

Howe has a point, I was thinking it must be a brake shutdown errorTed

thanks again for the replies in short stop mode - pressing the * button then taking key out (which works) If I step on brake, engine shuts off If I put parking brake down, engine shuts off that's how it suppose to work right? BTW, car starts fine with key Ill get back with you guys on the wirings this weekend Cant check on the car on the weekdays @Howie - any more info about the ACC relay disconnect? TIA

Can't help till you list your wiring, I'm leaning more and more towards vehicle ignition.

P.S. All the reading in the world is as nothing till you pull down that first panel, start looking for your wiring and swallow.....
