viper 5706p direction needed

Well I am looking for some help in putting to bed an car starter install that has been a nightmare. So a year ago I bought a Carvox X6A car starter spent 250.00 having it installed by a reputable company. From the get go the unit just did not function properly. So I ordered a replacement brain and still had problems, that is when what the installer said to me rang true "You get what you pay for". So I was told do a DEI (Viper) or a Compustar. Ended up buying a Python 5706P. When I went back to the company they said 350.00 to install it. :( Guess they needed to remove the Carvox and were miffed I did just listen to them the first time. As I am not bad with electrical I decided to swap out the units myself (wife was mad about another 350.00 being spent) so I did a wire for wire swap. Now I have confirmed my FJ does not have a key with a chip by getting a replacement key cut (it starts fine with the blank) and here is what happened. The Python arms/disarms correctly, siren works, range is great, warning led is fine, side lights flash,doors lock/unlock fine, alarm works great, however when I tried to use the remote starter it does not work... I did reprogram it from manual to auto, have the switch closed, it turns on the dash lights, does not turn over. So I have removed the split loom and would like to focus on the 10 pin wiring harness as I think that is where the problem lies. I only use my Fluke meter, I do not use T splicers, I only solder and split loom my wiring. I think it is the fact I did not install a relay for the Ignition 2 wiring. Frankly I am really nervous here as I started this a year ago and cannot put it off any longer. I have the wiring information for my FJ but here is what I am asking for from you all. Can someone help me by providing me with what wire goes where? Specifically the Viper 5706P/LC3 10 pin Remote Start to what wire on my FJ, and as well to explain how to install the required relay? Some say a diode is required some say no for the relay??? I know I am pushing it by asking but honest I have so much downloaded info I am getting confused. :( Thanks in advanced. Humbled Randy

I take it that this is the 2007 FJ you were working on back in March? https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp~TID~130224~PN~1When all else fails, Read the Instructions

H3/2, 6, and 9 to 12 Volts constant (Blue/Black) or out to battery. H3/4 to starter side of cut starter 1 Wire, H3/5 to Key Side of Starter 1. If not wanting to cut the starter wire, just use H3/4 to starter 1 Wire. Cut and cap H3/5. (GREEN/ Black) Starter 2, Relay needed. 85-    Starter output -200ma from remote start (H2/13) 86/87- 12v constant (I would fuse this) 30-    Starter 2 wire (BLACK/ White) H3/1 to Ignition 1 (BLACK/ Red) H3/7 to Ignition 2 (Blue / YELLOW) H3/3 to Accessory (WHITE/ Green) As always, use a DMM to verify ALL wires prior to making connection.

Thanks I will try again, and yes it is same vehicle just fell on the backburner after it warmed up. My Fluke and solder iron are dusted off. Randy

Things seemed to be growing fine now Ihave major problems!

Followed the instructions, double checked everything 3 times.

When I tried to do a test the dash lights would come on but it would not turn over. So when I checked everything again with my meter everything looked fine. I had a document from the Toyota Forum saying instead of using the strater -200mA brain output I should use the -200mA aux 1 output.

My FJ immediately started.

Ran thru all the tests, arm-disarm, locks, lights, but noticed the siren was getting quieter it eventually just stopped????

So I go for a test everything is fine, pull over put in park it dies? Start it fine hit reverse fine, hit drive it stalls? Now the strange thing is there a rushing kind of fan sound coming from the drivers side behind the instrument cluster??? 

I then unplugged the Python 5706P brain, same thing?

I start my FJ it staill stalls. So I remove the battery post let it sit and at least get it in my garage but the problem still persists. Would I have needed a diode with the relay?

Any help is very much appreciated.

Also I did not cut the Starter 1 wire I just cut and capped H3/5 and used the Violet to Starter 1.

We I ended pulling out the alarm system and my FJ works fine. :)

Decided to go to a reputable shop they fixed me up but did comment the original shop I went to did a so so wiring job.

Anyways I did need a diode for the relay and as well the original installer had soldered starter 1 and 2 together???

Thanks

Randy
