Hi, that's my first topic on this forum. So, please, don't judge me too hard posted_image Correct me if I did something wrong posted_image
Here is my problem. I just bought a Python 3203P (model 323) and about to install it myself. I've got wire guide for my 2004 Honda CR-V (thanks to https://www.the12volt.com, but the wire guide I got with alarm is a bit confusing to say at least. Eventually I was able to figure most of wiring out, but diagram doesn't show or explain where I suppose to connect 2 accessory wires from Honda. It shows none! And also what are those "Flex Relays"? How can I use it? Called Directech-no help, they said Pythons intended for only professional installation so they are restricted to give me information on installation! Total BS!!! posted_image
Here is what I was able to figure out. If anyone could check if I got it right I would really appreciate! posted_image

Is this an alarm or an R/Start. If you're using it as an alarm the ACC x 2 aren't relevant.
Also on the starter kill harness use 3 instead of 2 it's safer.
Everything else looks OK except the orange GWA. That should NOT be grounded, it's used for triggering accessories such as window closers.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

howie ll - Appreciate your help!
Yes, I'm trying to install remote start feature also, bypass module on it's way. Could it be that they moved ACCx2 wires to bypass module harness?
As to Orange GWA-I was told it is used by starter kill...
Where do I connect 3rd wire from starter kill harness?
Thanks

No it isn't. Used for accessories such as window closers. You only need to use 1 and 3 of the starter kill.
You will eventually use the flex relay for ACC 2.

Also no Tach wire on RS/Alarm harness! Doesn't need it?
Is that some kind of new generation alarm? So much confusion with wires...




Posted By: superden
Date Posted: October 14, 2011 at 1:54 PM
You will eventually use the flex relay for ACC 2 - That's what I thought!
But which one ACC1 or ACC2? if both then how?
Man, you are the best! posted_image No one ever helped me on other forums
Thank you

Just received my bypass module! PKH34 It does have 10 pin harness, so I'm guessing I'll find all missing wires here. But it doesn't have Wiring Guide. Can I find it here?
howie ll - Thank you for all your help!

Here is a link to the PKH34 info :  https://www.xpresskit.com/product.aspx?productid=212

This module only handles the transponder bypass function.  It does not power or control the vehicles ignition wires for a remote start.

Also have some bad news for you.  The Python 3203P is an Alarm System with Keyless Entry only.  It does not have a remote start ability / function.  Its' connection to the Ignition wire is for monitoring purposes only and the connections to the cut Starter wire are for "Starter Kill" security.  The PKH34 is not required for this system.

Here is a link to the Python info :  https://www.pythoncarsecurity.com/products/product.aspx?Productid=625

Here is a note about remote start capability :  Upgradable remote start capability with 4003L

kreg357 Thanks, if not you - I would be still looking for an answer! Now I got everything clear!
That will teach me to read fine prints all the way downposted_image
Honestly, I was carried away by remote. Neat design and all necessary buttons... I just really wondering who would buy an alarm with HUGE remote and 3 extra buttons just to open/close doors!? Or it's a new trend? posted_image

Just one more thing! Do I still need Bypass module if get 4003L?
Thanks




Posted By: kreg357
Date Posted: October 15, 2011 at 4:50 PM
Yes, the PKH34 bypass is still necessary for a remote start.

Hi, I'm trying to install all of that (Python 323 / Avital 4003 / PKH34) on my 2004 CR-V. Alarm is installed and functioning fine except that it doesn't go off when I open the hood. Hood pin is installed, but I don't think it's well grounded or does it have to...

Problem is that remote start doesn't work and when I press the button nothing happens, not even an error buzz-buzz from the fob which I was getting if I'd press the button before everything installed(???).

Also can't get this Bypass to work: I connected it via D2D cable which has a power and ground cable to it. So I used only 3 besides D2D (Data, Security Light-Key Side, Security Light-ECM side).
What am I doing wrong?

One more thing-when I installed Avital there wasn't any markings for Activation Input Polarity pin on the case, so (stupid) I assumed it's in (-) by default since 4003 is listed as accessory for Python on web site. So I connected everything and when nothing worked I started to troubleshoot and found out that it was in (+) by default. Is it possible that I burned something inside the unit since it doesn't have any visible fuses? But when I try to access programming menu Avital's LED is blinking corresponding number of times and seems to be in working condition.

Since the installation guide doesn't tell anything about Satellite Harness I am guessing that it's something optional, but still wondering what it is for.

I would really appreciate any help and hopefully it will help someone else too, because it was really a hassle to gain all this information. Especially for a novice. I really thought it would be much easier

PKH34

wires:
(DATA) VIOLET = WHITE
(SL KEY SIDE) PINK/WHITE = BLUE/ORANGE (KEY SIDE)
(SL ECM SIDE) PINK = BLUE/ORANGE (ECM SIDE)

+ D2D 4pin cable
Manual says that D2D replaces all other connections...

your neutral safety wire is not listed as connected to anything.  It needs to see constant ground in order for the remote start to function.  Also, if the hoodpin switch is seeing ground, it will not allow the remote starter to function.

Thanks
Yes, neutral safety wire is connected to the ground wire.
Hood pin shows ~12V normally and 0V with hood open. Even though I didn't scrape paint under the bolt to make it well grounded.
Is everything else where it should be?

double check there is not voltage on the brake wire at the remote start.   Disconnect the hoodpin briefly to make sure it's not seeing ground.   Double check your nss wire that it is seeing ground and if you wired the switch in series, make sure it is switched on.  If it's a transponder issue i believe the car will act like the ignition is on but not crank and flash the key light on the cluster.  How are you activating the remote start?  pulse your WHITE/ blue activation input wire to ground to make sure it isn't the output of your security system.

You're right, it's a Python that giving me problems. When I pulse-grounded WHITE/ blue,I heard all the relays clicking inside a RS box and car started. When I press a button on the remote I don't hear anything and nothing happens. So I probably have to program/activate remote starter feature on the alarm somehow, what do you think? It doesn't say anything about it in manual
( https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=126090&KW=viper3203 ).
Also can't get bybass to work. Could you please check my wire legend? When I check D2D connection (4pin) shows RED / (+)12.75V; BLACK/ GROUND; BLUE (+)4.86V; GREEN (+)4.97V. So it does get power and has a ground at least - but shows no life at all. LED doesn't lit up or even blink when I am trying to activate or reset it.
Thanks for helping me posted_image
