All,

I picked up a Compuster 3000A alarm remote start for my 95 honda accord.  The dealer said it was 5speed compatible, but looking at the info, I'm not sure.  Is the brain for the automatic compatible for the 5speed tranmission with a dip switch adjustment or something?

Thanks in advance.

There is a jumper wire under a panal on the back (I think it's on ths back) there is a green wire in there. if it is uncut, it's set for manual trans. CUT, is for automatic trans. It says this in the install manual.

I saw something like that in the manual, but this "brain" doesn't have that wire.  Could it be that Compustar has started making specific units for each transmision type?  The installation manual says they it is "Manual transmission compatible" though.

Compustar has models that are manual and auto specific, we have them generally they will have a sticker on them that says automatic or manual. these ones have no green wire.

Yep, this has an automatic sticker on it.  It's weird why the manual says manual transmission compatable.  So I guess if I tried to install it the alarm would work but not the remote start?

It will not work. It's doesn't have the programming option for the manual safety sequence in it.

Thanks for everyone's help.  I will have to send the unit back and get the correct one.

All,

I saw this advertised (Compustar 2W900FMAS-M) but I don't know if it is for a manual transmission.  I've been burned before on one that was advertised for a 5spd but it wasn't.  Does anyone have this same one for a manual? 

Thanks in advance.

Don't buy it off the interweb....you'll get burned once again. Purchase product from an authorized dealer.
