Question -
The alarm/starter that I am installing calls for one wire to be wrapped around the coil, or to be attached to the oil pressure warning light. The wiring diagram that I pulled off of the 12volt.com says to attach it to the PCM modules (3) on the driver's fenderwell. There are about 6 relays, and I have no idea which is the right one. Any idea?
Answer -
The Asian alarm you are installing is worded
a bit strangely. The wire you have there is
for the tach. You need to go to the tach wires at the igniton coil under the hood.
Look at your diagram for this vehicle you
found and see the wire color at the
coil you need to attatch it to.
Have a good one.

Here is the wiring diagram from the alarm, I am unsure of three wires. The first is the grey to the oil pressure light/or high tension coil and the other two are the brown ignition "on" wires. The little (worthless) manual I got says to use the first one when a second ignition is needed to start the engine or a/c unit. How do you tell if that is necessary? Second one is to be used to connect to the a/c power supply only
I guess I can't post the diagram, but I can send it to you if that would help. I should have known better than to buy this alarm. All I ever worked on before was the wonderful products from DEI
AnswerI really can't go wire by wire with you since you did
not buy the product here, and that service is reserved
to my quipment only.
I'll try to guess at the answer this time for you though.
The gray seems to go to the (-) tach wire
at the coil, the 2 brown wires are for 1st and second
ignition and would be needed in this vehicle. There would also be one for accessory (AC/HEATER) if the second brown
does this, then if you need a second ignition (you will)
you will need an extra relay. (see adding extra ignitions at www.relayhelp.com
If unhappy send it back. It is your car and you should
understand it. And by the way DEI is fair compared
to Ultrastart and to Scytek. Both run circles around DEI's
latest stuff. Kinda bland really, and the range aint all that.
Good luck with it.
