This weekend I am going to install an Autopage RS-650 car alarm with remote start in my car, and I've got a few questions about some of the wiring.
1. Which wires do I need to connect together to trick the car into thinking that the clutch is pushed in? I looked near the clutch pedal but didn't do any testing of the wires because I figured that someone here would know. I also looked in the Chilton's repair manual, but that didn't have the wiring info that I need. 2. Where is the easiest place to tap into the starter and ignition on wires for my remote start? I need to attach one wire to the starter wire(which is supposedly a black/white wire at the ignition switch harness), one wire to the blue/orange ignition on wire, and one wire to the blue/red ignition on wire. I looked around the ignition switch, and it seems like that goes pretty far back, so I'm just wondering where is the easiest place to connect these wires. 3. Does anyone have any photos of where exactly they ran wires from the engine bay through the firewall into the car's cabin? I have never been able to find a place to run wires through, but I need to run some wires from the engine bay to the cabin of the car. If anyone can help me with these questions, I'd greatly appreciate it. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

The ignition wires you need are easy to get at next too the steering column in a bundle above the obd plug. Most of your connections will be in that bundle or the drivers kickpanel.
Take off the dash the support panel behind it and the a/c duct and you will have all kinds of room to work. Also the kick panel cover to get at the door lock wires. I ran my wires out through the grommet behind the kick panel. Sorta a pain in the ass but all the wires are hidden in factory loom and it looks stock. If you do the same make sure you seal the wires well water off the windshield pours through this area and leaks are possible. |
