I'm installing an Autopage 1000 OLED on a 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX. Got everything wired up, everything works except the remote start. The ignition turns and accessory turns on, then the accessory goes off for when the starter is supposed to crank then comes back on, however, the starter is not cranking. I checked the signal from the alarm brain and I'm getting nothing out of it. Quariple checked all the connections, everything seems right but there's not +12V coming from the starter output. Any suggestions? I guess I could use the (-) Starter 2 output and use a relay but it's supposed to work the way it is...

Thanks in advance

For the starter to "output", it needs 12 volts input to the brain. Typically there are 2 inputs for 12 volts.... are they both connected?

Are you using a transponder bypass? Is IT working correctly? If it's not.....the remote start unit will NOT attempt to start the car. The car does require one!

The alarm brain thinks the car is starting and running. i do have a key bypass and I even tried doing it with a key in the ignition. The ignition turns on but the starter wire does not output a +12V
