Hi guys,

I know there are a lot of posts about rangers but nothing I have tried has worked. I have properly connected the starter wires through the relay along with the starter kill and ignition. I even disconnected the starter kill wire to see if that was causing my truck not to start remotely. I connected the tach wire to the tan / YELLOW wire under the hood on the drivers side. That seems fine because the alarm recognized it. I only have one acc. wire going to the acc. in the wiring harness. I have another acc. coming from the alarm but I don't know if i need it. The lights flash like they should when I press the start button, but it won't even attempt to start. I don't know what the neutral safety switch is because my ranger wiring guide doesn't give me the color scheme. Can anyone please help I have been fighting this alarm for 2 days now.

My Alarm is the Crimestopper CS-2016FM.

Thanks in Advance,

Josh

Here are the ignition wires you need and also, you didn't mention if the truck was a std or auto ?

The truck is auto, and I have all of the color schemes of all the wires, but I am not sure if I have to also hook up the 2nd ACC./IGN. wire. It says "if necessary." That is the only wire I do not have hooked up. Do I need to connect it through a relay or just hardwired. Does that Neutral Safety have anything to do with this problem. I believe the tach I chose is correct because the lights blinked like they should have but it wouldn't let me program it into the remote.

Is your brake switch hooked up correctly and what wires did you tap into to get the ing?
