the wiring diagram at this site and bulldogsecurity says that 06 altima has 2 accessory wires, which is red and WHITE/ blue. when i test it with the dmm, i'm getting 2 ignition wires, which is the main wire is BLACK/ red and the second is red wire. i'm loosing 12v on those two wires when it's on accessory position. anyone here have install an alarm on this car and let me know if i'm right or wrong. thanks

If an alarm it doesn't matter.
If a remote start unless they help in the starting cycle leave out, then eliminate, which does heater controls you will need?
Wipers window lifts, audio, you won't need.
BLACK/ red is the important one.

it's both alarm and remote start. i got the compustar.

the heater control is what i don't understand. what does it mean by having 2 heater control? i thought there is only one.

i understand blk/red is ignition and the WHITE/ blue is the acc wire. what worry me is the red wire. my gut instinct says to use it as 2nd ignitition, since i'm not getting voltage reading on acc position. but both sites is showing that i'm wrong. i'm sure they done it before before posting it on the site.

anyway i won't be able to know until later on this week. i had to order the cable so i can hook up the module to pc to flash it

I agree, use WHITE/ blue as ACC, red as 2nd. ignition, you will do no harm.
Event cycle:-
Ignition.
Start.
ACC.
P.S. relay required for 2nd. starter wire:-2nd._starter..bmp
