Hi everyone, this is my first alarm installation. I’m installing a viper 791xv in a 2000 Nissan quest. All functions work except the remote start. I have double check all connections I got from vehicle information database and I can’t find the problem. The only other option is try reprogramming the unit.

When I press the start button nothing happens, not even a click. I’m thinking my wire hookup is wrong. This what I did, cut starter wire, connect the purple wire (+ starter output) on the side going to the starter and the green wire (starter input) to the key side. The red wires were connected to constant 12V, the pink (+ ignition output) wire is connected to the ignition wire and the other wires were accessory wires. I don't know if did something wrong here but the remote start doesn't work

DID YOU LEARN TACH? many Nissans have a cold start starter as well... did you hook this up also?

thanks kgerry for your help but i found the problem, it was the gray/black wire needed to be ground. but i have another problem, my instrumental panel lights are dead, and i did check the fuse.

Did you remove the cluster during your install? Did you arc any wires while you were making your power and ignition connections?

i will check, but it was working before. it worked when i put it on the driving lights but not in the auto 1 & 2. all this happen just after i install the alarm, now it doesn't at all. every other instrumental icons work fine, just the lights doesn't comes on.

did you use the gray/red negative switch for the parking lights. disconnect your white parking light wire from the car and see if ti works properly

why would the grey/black need to be grounded? this is the diesel glow plug input........ it should only be hooked up if the vehicle is a diesel....

He must have meant the BLACK/ White neutral safety input Kgerry.

Yes I did remove the white wire and still not working. Sorry I did mean BLACK/ white wire. I don't know but the driving lights work fine. Is it possible the switch itself is bad? Before I forget my tv/vcr doesn't work either, could these two problems be related.
