ok so i bought the viper smart start so i could start my 01 civic automatic from my iphone. i already had and old doodiety viper in my car, i think i was a 160vx which was installed professionally. well i didnt tear all the wires out. i have both wiring diagrams and i have been matching the wires since some are different colors. i have not got to the "smart start" part of it, im just trying to get the core autostart to work. as of right now i the doors lock and unlock and when i try and start it, the box clicks but the car doesnt start.

here are the wires that i do not have hooked up because i dont think i need them but im probably wrong:

aux trunk release
flex parking light relay 87a
door+ input
factory horn input
door- input
domelight
remote start activation(problem?)
parking light
ground-when-armed
oem disarm
oem arm
aux 1
aux 2
aux 3
2nd unlock
wait-to-start
RS status
RS ignition
RS starter
RS accessory
flex

you will need to hookup

oem disarm, rs status for bypass module, rs starter wire, rs accessory wire,parking lights, flex relay 30 to ignition 2, and ground when armed if you want a starter kill.

man not to offend you but if you do not have any experince in remote start alarms I would really consider taking it to someone who knows what they are doing. but if you already have a viper remote start in there you should be able to plug the wire harness from the old viper to the new one or at least be able to go by the old wire colors they should just match up.

Also the factory setting is for a manual transmision you will have to change it to a automatic. and what type of bypass module are you using?

well i need to learn sometime. i have put a body kit on my car. i have totally redone the audio system, made my own fiberglass subwoofer box and much more with no prior knowledge. how do i learn if i dont try? i am using a directed 556u bypass. how do i change it to automatic? and do you have any info on where i should tie those wires mentioned above into?

first off, you need a wiring diagram, a multimeter, and 5 hours at least to pull this job off.

the outputs on the viper will end up going onto the wires on the car (their respected function)

for example, the viper violet (+) starter wire will go to BLACK/ white at the ignition harness.

its simply matchin outputs of the viper onto the wire of the car for the respected function, but you need a DMM (digital muti meter) to test if you have the correct wires.

as mentioned, the flex relay is only required if oyuhave more than one ignition or acc wire.

are you uncertain how it is wired up?

                                                                                                                                       Black and white wire make sure you ground it. it goes to a switch to turn of the remote start but that alarm should come with a switch that plugs in with a switch.

For your 556uw hook red to 12v black ground and blue to blue and white status wire on alarm.   

Hope this helps you

If it doesn't start with the key, then something is definitely wrong! Did you plug in the ingition harness? have you interrupted the starter wire? It couldn't be the transponder becuse it would have still cranked, just never turning over!
