Having a problem getting the start feature working? I get ignition but, no start at all? I am sure I hooked up right wires here? But, not sure if the blue wire from remote where it goes?

Book diagram says blue wire hooks up to accessories. However the vehicle diagram you guys provided says nothing about a accessories hookup. You guys show a Ignition #2 wire in vehicle wiring listing to hook up a RED / yellow wire. But where? Same thing with the wires for the alarm disarm feature too. In the book no listing for the OEM alarm wires where they hook in on the remote wiring?

The accessories would include immbiliser by-pass if your vehicle has a factory transponder. What make and model R/S please. What model Subie? Does it crank over at all? Also try inserting the ignition key then see if it then starts.
You're not giving us enough info to help.
You hooked up wires right? How do we know? What have you connected to where? Have you tested? Have you programmed tach?

Well I am not sure if it has a transponder? I do know it has a after market alarm hooked into the system.

In answer to your question about vehicle. Its a 98 Subaru outback. No it don't crank at all. I get a ignition on but no start or crank.
 
The problem I am having is not clear information where what wire goes where? For instance the blue wire from the remote? Where does it go? Then all of the door lock wiring, and the alarm wiring where do they go? There is no specific where these wires go? Your wiring (for the subaru wiring) listing show that a wire hooks up to a RED / yellow wire. But, does not say which wire from the remote goes there?

To further confuse the hell out of me, there is a note on the bottom that says Ignition 2 must be programmed to not be "Hot" during crank or a "check engine" light will appear in the instrument cluster.

Not sure what else to give you here?

Test to see if your starter output from the R/S is working, from your answers I would only have to suggest you take it to a pro and let them install/rectify it. It's an extremely simple car to do.
