I am wondering what connections the remote start unit will need that isn't controlled by the DB3. So far all is good. Green light on the DB3 but won't go into reservation mode. 7 flashes of the parking lights.
Does the remote start need to see the E-brake, ground the clutch, tach signal, ect....??

make sure it is in manual transmission mode
MTS (Manual Transmission Start) diagnostics
When enabling MTS, if you get a failure notification from the remote or the vehicle fails to remain started
check for following:
• Tachometer not connected or programmed.
• E-brake not connected to the remote start unit. The 24-pin harness Black/White parking brake input
wire must have a ground when the parking brake is set.
• Foot must be OFF the brake when activating the MTS mode on the remote.
• Is the door open when enabling the MTS mode? If so this would cause the unit to enter Pit Stop Mode
and the remote start will continue to run when arming/locking the system.
• Is the door input connected? The system needs to see a door open then close after initiating the remote
start.
• Does the vehicle have a delayed dome light? If you are connected to the dome light wire and the dome
light is staying ON after arming/locking the system, the system can exit the MTS mode.
• Make sure the remote start shut OFF switch is plugged in and turned ON
MTS mode exiting diagnostics
If the remote start has entered the MTS mode but exits the mode after the system is armed/locked. Check
these for possible causes.
• The vehicle door has been opened in your absence.
• Does the vehicle have a delayed dome light circuit or does the dome light come ON when the ignition
is shut OFF? If so you may need to go to the independent door inputs of the vehicle
• If you are connected to the dome light wire in the vehicle and cannot connect the system to the
individual door inputs of the vehicle due to it having normally closed door inputs, you can use Tech Tip
# 1921 at www.directechs.com to interface with these types of circuits.
• The E-brake wire connected to the parking brake input of the system loses ground when ignition is
turned OFF or after a certain amount of time, with these vehicles unfortunately there is no workaround.
• The E-brake wire connected to the parking brake input of the system has a poor ground. Clean the
contacts on the switch or replace the switch.

33 years as a installer now just a retired old guy. Favorite thing to install/topic are remote starts/car alarms. Stop using test lights!!!
