Ok, so this a double post from the audio/electronics section, but I am only doing this b/c I have wires EVERYWHERE. I need to put this back together in the next day or so win, lose, or draw. I would hate to go through all of this again.

Now, I always read as many posts as I can and help as much as I can. Sometimes, I feel like someone who reads my posts must know something and just won't post. Someone, please lend me a hand; I know someone knows how to do this!

I am trying to wire in the remote start function on my already installed alarm. Before anyone says, "That's dumb on a MT car," hear me out: the car is NEVER left in gear b/c I have a turbo timer. But I am also going to install a toggle on the clutch bypass, so I know it won't be remote started when it's out of my possession. Now, on to the problem...

I have 6 wires I need to find in order to make this thing work. There are 2 12V+ power inputs, starter output, ignition 1 output, ignition 2 output, and accessory output. The online guides are useless; they DO NOT match up. The starter output is supposed to be placed in a way to utilize the neutral safety switch, so I think it just might need a constant 12V+ or ground.

My starter has 6 wires. I will list 5 of them b/c I am too tired to go back out and look at the 6th. They are: black/white, black/yellow, white/red, black/green, and blue. The black/yellow already appears to be interrupted by a relay for alarm to kill ignition, so I know this important. I have been unable to find exactly which wire does what in the FSM. I don't think it is there for whatever reason.

PLEASE help me out on this guys; I hate wiring (we all do). I need some guidance. Thanks!

Look further down the harness the online guides are right.

If u are wiring the remote start those wires go to the key ignition cylinder. take down your steering console and you will see some heavy gauge wire coming from the key cylinder. (About 10 guage) one is constant 12v, one is starter, Ignition 1, Ignition 2, & Accessory. Test them to see which is which. !12V will always have power going to it.Starter will have power going to it when the car is cranked. Ignition will have power going to it when key is in the run position (2 clicks of key) . Accessory will have power going to it when key is in accessory (1 click of key). Attach the wires from the alarm to the corresponding wires at the key cylinder.
