hey guys I'm new here, but I am currently trying to install a clifford matrix rsx 3.5 in my 97 acura 2.2CL. I've installed basic alarms and keyless entry systems, and the door lock is not doing very well for me. If anyone has had experience with my type of car please help.

you have to get them in the security module which is under the passenger seat lock is RED / yellow unlock is RED / blue oh yah and you have to meter these wires while turning the key in the passenger door lock cylinder and you can also get them in the driver kickpanel lt. blue for lock BLACK / YELLOW for unlock

awesome thanx, what about the trunk pop. I wired everything up the way they wanted with the relay and it still doesn't work, did you do that?

The trunk release wire at the factory alarm module has to be cut in half If your alarm puts out a negative pulse trunk release you need a relay, pin 87 and 86 goes to a fused 12 volt source, pin 85 goes to the alarm brain, pin 30 goes to the solenoid side of the wire you cut in half, and pin 87a goes to the switch or security module side that you cut in half if your alarm puts out a postive pulse trunk release do exactly the same, BUT put pin 86 to negative instead of 12 volts

ok I got all my door locks and trunk solenoid working. Now why isn't my alarm bypassing my stock alarm when it's sitting for a little bit. It just randomly doesn't bypass it. Like over night it was fine, but when i got out of school today my stock alarm wasn't bypassed. I have my GREEN/ black wire hooked up through a relay to my blue wire, which I have been told that's the wire to use to bypass my stock alarm. What should I do, because I can't just take my stock alarm out so how should I got about doing this?

your factory alarm bypasses on lock and unock, I don't know what else to tell you might have to wait for a better response to this

you have to interrupt the ign feed to the OEM alarm... usually it's a yellow wire....

So today I was installing the remote start part of my car and i was thinking if there is a possibility to install the brake shutdown wire on my clutch wires. My car is a 1997 Acura 2.2CL Manual Transmission My alarm is a Clifford Matrix RSX 3.5

See page 5 of your installation manual....  -------------

use the e-brake to shotdown the car. and use the NSS because it is manual trans.

Why not be safe and .....well SAFE, and get yourself a unit designed for a manual transmission, and install it the way it's supposed to be installed? They are available...AST, Compustar, and of course Astroflex! -------------

I believe Dare_ds69 was referring to the NSS from Pac/Peripheral that is an add-on to an automatic remote start. It makes the user go through the exit routine in order for the car to remote start. If installed correctly, can be just as safe as a manual transmission system.

ok well first of all I prefer going with clifford because they are a great company. Is there a way to wire the brake shutdown wire to a clutch wire. If so how would that be accomplished. I don't want to buy anything else for it. I know there's a way but I don't know it.

well I've already installed it so I don't want to change it now. But that's ok cuz I don't leave it in gear, it's rutine for me.

I just have a couple quick questions. I have a clifford matrix rsx 3.5 and a 1997 acura 2.2cl. I'm finally gonna start wiring up the remote start part, I've juss been too lazy. my wiring schematic says that the Purple- goes to (+) starter ouput to starter (starter side) Green- Starter Input from ignition (Key side) so does this mean that I have to cut my starter wire from my ignition switch and wire it through the alarm. Pink- (+) output to primary ignition circuit what does this wire do??

yes you gotta cut the starter wire in half. pink is the (dramatic drumroll) primary ignition for remote start. as in it fires up a lot of the stuff needed for the vehicle to remote start like fuel pump, etc.

oh ok, sweet thanx. I thot so I just wasn't sure if I could use T-taps, because I've soldered every connection so far.

wont i have to use a relay to convert the polarity. 86 is the brake shutdown wire, 87 is the E-brake wire, 85 and 30 are ground. Is this correct or is it a different way??

| Parking Brake | GREEN/ red | - | parking brake switch |
NSS would be the small gauge neutral safety switch wire on the clifford. this way, the vehicle will only start when the e-brake is on. you'll have to test the clutch wire. most likely it is a neg. trigger in which case: 85 - clutch (neg) 86 - +12v 87 - +12v 30 - to brown brake shutdown on clifford

another thing. i advise against t-taps on the ignition harness. if you use the wrong ones, they can melt due to the amount of current passing through. not all pro's use them. i don't.

well today I did the remote start part of my alarm and I got the wires ran. Now it's just got the little gliches. First of all, I went to go remote start it and it fired up than 5 seconds after that it died. This is on a 1997 Acura 2.2CL. What do I have to do to get this thing going??
