the alarm brain and the xcrs connect together with that long ribbon cable that should come with the alarm. it is a long, flat cable made of about six or seven wires.

The 5900 has the "alarm brain" and essentially a relay pack. When you take them out of the box it should make sense to you, if it doesn't find an insteller that it does make sense to!

What type of car is this going in? Are you planning to install the remote start? The reomte start part is what the relay pack with the heavy gauge wires are for, it isn't mandatory to install the remote start!

Thanks for reply...

Mine is Nissan Versa....What is the function of these 2 wires?

- Light-GREEN/ Black (-) Factory Alarm Disarm

- GREEN / WHITE (-) Factory Alarm Rearm

Am i correct this 2 wires function to Arm or Disarm Viper 5900 Alarm using Car Factory Alarm...means Viper5900 can be arm or disarm using Car factory alaram or Viper remote?

Correct me if im wrong..

Thanks

You are wrong. They are OUTPUTS from the 5900 to arm and disarm your cars FACTORY alarm when you use the Viper remote.
