Ok, check this out you guys, I have a 1998 Nissan Altima GXE, Ive installed a remote start alarm on it, so my problems are as follows...in the morning when I want to remote start the car it wont turn on, it cranks but it doesnt turn on, but if I turn it on normally with a key and then shut it off and try to turn it back on remotely, it turns on fine, it only does this when its been off for a couple of hours. My second problem is that when I finally get the car on and I put the key in the on position its stays on for a few minutes but after a few minutes the cars engines shuts-off and the alram goes off, now I know that I wired something wrong here..duh, but what is it? any ideas...besides not driving the car after I remote started...

looms like you need a bypass module, and make sure your brake wire is hooked up.

You dont have an immobilizer, but something is sure wrong. So when you remote start and then put the key in, are you saying that the car shuts off even though you put the key in the on position? That would be weird unless the car wouldnt start with the key as well.
A little more detail would be helpful.

Do you have both of the starter wires hooked up?

i 2nd the starter wires. Nissan has 2 start wires, 1 is a cold start wire, and the other is the main start wire.

Well I did hook up both start wires, unless maybe they are switched around? Can that be possible?

Make sure you have the proper tach wire and learned the tach signal ( lowest possible rpm ) and also check to make sure that you have a good (-) signal going to your OEM security disarm wire. Also, check to make sure that your brake connection is receiving a (+) when you press the brake pedal.

NISSAN, ALTIMA, 1998, Accessory(BLACK/ pink)When doing remote start, this wire must be isolated from the keyswitch with the accessory relay. wire as follows: 86 and 87 go to 12v constant 87a goes to the keyside of the accessory 30 goes to vehicle side of the accessory 85 goes to (-) output during remote start. (if it is D.E.I. , it goes to the small orange wire from the ribbon cable) good luck and have fun! | |
