i just finished wiring the keyless entry on my car.. but theres the remote start bit that i cant finish..

i tried setting it up without hooking up the tach... but the starter doesnt seem to like that... and is saying tach lock out. so i guess ill have to hook it up and give it a shot.

where is the ignition coil... i dont really know what to be looking for.. other than a blue wire..

please advise. Thanks!

ALSO.... why is systems horn output (-) ?

that doesnt make any sense to me.. if the horn is grounded negative.. why would it output negative as well..

btw.. i couldnt find the horn wire still... so i didnt hook it up.. but i checked it.. and the output is only liek - .4 volts output.. which is strange.. i was expecting the full 12..

the horn switch i just a ground for the relay. since positve electic switchs make spark so thats why they dont use them anymore

My diagrams show the tach wire as Black/Blue and on pin 5 of i2/B37 (22 pin brown connector).

The horn is activated by grounding the horn wire, it's a Red/Green wire on pin 1 of B68 (5 pin black connector on the steering column).

anddd it was a great success.. thanks!

cept... i could get the horn to work still... could you explain how i would have to wire the horn differently.....?

i think i understand how the relay works now.. ish..
so i have the negative wire coming from the module tapped into the side of the red/green wire for the horn..
so im guessing its just the programing of the system thats making the horn not work....?
