VIPER 971XV Remote Start MT

greekgodchaos · 05-03-2009, 06:06 PM

Hello, I bought my 99 eclipse Manual transmission with a Viper 971xv system installed, and I want to enable the remote start feature, so I disconnected the clutch safety wire so my car can start without a clutch, and now I just need to know how to hook the system up so I can use the remote start. I found a brown and white wire that don't go anywhere and are part of the system (wondering if those have anything to do with it) and I also found a random connector (4-pin female) dangling next to my Viper unit box (but it doesn't plug into any of the ports :/ ) so can anyone shine some light on my little issue? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you so much guys, hope to hear from you soon.

Check me sig for an owners manual, make sure all fuses are in place. Sounds like it was disconnected or striped of an add on unit. four pin molex plug, what are the wire colors? I don't have an install manual, I'm sure lee will have it for you and should post up tomorrow morning or mid-day.

I assume it has key less entry and it is working? It's been a while installing a remote starter on a manual, the shop I worked at would make you sign a waver if you really wanted it. As one guy owned a dealers ship and he would not listen to us at the shop, so we installed the remote starter in a brand new Porsche next morninghe called to say the car came through his kitchen wall:)
If it is installed ther needs to be a way to disable it, also the E-Brake should be used at all times even when not needed!!!!!!!!
I personally advise against this but hey its yer car.........

manual car you can hook the ebrake up to the neutral safety switch so the ebrake has to be set and the car in neutral to start. Just a secondary safety feature I do.
