I have a ford f150 and installed a python 881xp and everything works fine but the remote start feature shuts down if key is not inserted within 10 seconds I think i need to connect it to tach wire but not sure.

Sorry it is 2004 and yes I used a 556uw bypass from directed electronics. The truck starts fine and stays on for 10 seconds. Thank you for your quick response

What wire did you use to trigger the 556U?

key inserted but no turning, right?

What wire on the truck did you use for a tach signal?

I used the blue negative trigger on the 556u to the blue negative trigger from the alarm and I did not use the tach since I was hoping the voltage sense would do the trick.

Voltage sense is very unreliable on those trucks. Use a fuel injector wire for a tach signal.
