Show me your wiring :D
If there is anyone out there that has a remote start on their car(s197), preferably a viper 5901/5902, I would like to see which wires are hooked up to which. A pic or a list would be perfect. Here is a video that explains exactly how to get to these wires. First person will receive $10 in their paypal.

lol no reason to pay people for help. I have a compustar but I'd imagine the wiring as a bit different. I'll look later today though. But I'm sure there's an installer lurking around here that could probably just tell ya.

This is what I have regarding the alarm wiring for the S197.
EDIT: I have a SJB wiring diagram too, but it is kind of fuzzy. Sorry, that is how it came to me.
Also, you don't have to paypal me anything!

The biggest problem I am having is not locating the wires but knowing which alarm wires go to which. Currently my doors don't work nor does the remote start. Thanks

Did your mustang come with the factory alarm? If so, that slightly changes things.
Also, did you purchase the transponder module for your remote start? If you don't have something to clone your key, remote start is a no go. I'll look your alarm up later on to see if I can figure out how to connect the lock/unlock wires.

I have been installing car audio and security since my 94 gt was new. That has to be the worst video I have ever seen right from the beginning. It recomends disconnecting the battery which goes aginst everything I have ever been shown. Everyone I know says that you must test EVERY wire before hooking up to it to ensure you are conncting it correctly. Disconecting the battery will make that hard.
Solder is prefered for connections, crimp is acceptable and posi/t-taps have no use in car audio. They will eventually come loose and lead to wiring gremlins
I will take a pic of my alarm install, but you will not see where anything is hooked up. A properly installed alarm means that the wiring and the alarm is not able to be found.
I really have to warn you that an alarm, especially a remote start alarm is not a basic, or even an intermediate install. If everything goes well it really is an advanced install and things go wrong in alarm installs all the time. A good alarm with a bad install may leave you wondering why your shtuff is all gone or could leave you wondering why your car will not start and needing a tow. Worst case scenario is that you will be cutting high current/critical wiring so if it is not done right, well then its wrong.....
I had worked as a pro installer for almost a year, and had a trained alarm pro in the passenger seat telling me what not to do when I attempted my first alarm. Even seasoned alarm installers are often stumped by what would seem like a simple install. IT is amazing all the things you can find....
