The remote start should have the “neg while running wire”, but you usually won’t tap it to any wire in the car. It us usually used to turn on bypasses or trip relays if you need to do something special. Some cars require that you activate keysense or the car won’t start, you could use teh neg while running for that. What kind of car??

I didn’t mean to say bypass but where or what should I hook that wire too? I got everything hooked up tried to start it, system cranked the engine 1 time, and stop, but when I grounded the neg whole running wire. It cranked then started and was still cranking the starter.

that wire should only be used for bypassing a security system during starting. did you play with the crank time settings at all??? Sounds like you adjusted it or it needs to be adjusted. I only assume your using the RS in voltage mode and not tach signal

I’m gonna check, it might be set up on factory setting which is like 1 sec crank. I just need it to crank for 2 or 3 sec. When I get home ill fiddle aeound with it more dreid what’s your number again I got your 516 number. I don’t think that works anymore.
