The mc comes with a ACCESSORY /HEATER BLOWER 1=ornage and ACCESSORY /HEATER BLOWER 2=brown. The wiring info from here https://bulldogsecurity.com/New%20Wires/New%20Wires/Wires/monte00-03.htm says - This wire must be powered as an accessory wire. If powered as a 2nd ignition the car will not crank. I am using a 791xv. Do i connect both orange and brown to the accesory ouput of the alarm=orange?
TIA!

I'm guessing I just leave that brown wire alone?

on this car do not engerize the brown wire. it will work fine at first and as time goes by you will notice the car will not crank as soon as you turn the key but has a delay, and things will go down hill from there.you dont need the brown wire, trust me.

Do you know if the tach wire is the white wire located in a 4 wire harness next to the spark plugs?

In all my experience, that brown wire only powers the radio, so when you remote start it your radio turns on. This may be incorrect, but I have never had trouble with a RS that I didnt hook the brown wire up.
