Guest 10D Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Hey Folks, After reading all the related topics on the forum, i figured this would be a good place to ask! I managed to get hold of the intallation guide for this alarm, and am planning to install it myself. It was previously installed on my old car, then had it professionally removed and got them to mark up the black wires so i didnt need new harnesses (i knew it would be going in the same car, so wire lengths wouldnt be an issue). They assured me that they would install it in my new car without new harnesses, but when i came to ask them they said they wouldnt without new harnesses , hence i wanna save myself the cost and do it myself. Anyway, i have run into 2 problems, firstly...on the 14 pin connector, i have 2 extra wires, both brown and look like they were connected to the same wire (still had alittle left of whatever he cut them from). The pins they come from are 1 and 3. In the installation guide, these pins are empty, so i have no idea where they connected or their purpose. The second problem is that there seems to be 2 wires missing from the main harness (black wires). The 2 missing are for the headlights: it had the feature to have them on for 10 seconds. Instead, there seems to be a relay as show in the diagram below: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v518/projectvti/Relay12.jpg Also marked on the diagram are where i think the wires should go, all i know is that 85 definately goes to the alarm with the grey/blue wire, and that 86 and 87 are connected. Could the wires in problem one be related to this? I dont think they are as the guages/colour of the wires are completely different. If anyone could help, or point me in a better direction to search, i would be greatly appreciative as its the only think holding me from installing it Many thanks in advance!!
