xD - Remote Start - Manual
Hey guys,
I just finished installing a manual remote starter (yes, the remote starter is made for a manual transmission) into my xD. The model I chose was the Ultra U1271m, commonly found on eBay. I am not sure how many people out there have done one of these on a manual but I figured I would post up some helpful hints for anyone out there who is looking for information (note: this is not a "how to remote start your manual xd write up", these are just some helpful notes I think may come in handy:
1. No immobilizer was required for my car. I am unsure if this is for all xDs however, mine did not require it and I wasted 40$ buying a Fortin immobilizer. Oh well, can't win them all.
2. Drop the steering wheel plastic shroud and you will see all of your ignition wires.
3. Brown wire in the driver's kick panel is one wire for the door locks (can't remember if it was the unlock or lock wire).
4. The other door unlock/lock wire, parking lights wire, break wire, and e-brake are found at the driver's side fuse box (if you even classify that behemoth of white plugs and such as a fuse box).
5. There are two wires at the clutch - yellow and black. Both of these wires see 12 volts when the clutch pedal is depressed. Tap into your remote starter "starter" wire with TWO wires and wire one wire into each clutch switch wire. DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT simply make a jumper wire at the clutch switch. Wiring it this way still forces any joe shmoe to still push the clutch pedal down to start the car.
6. I used the blue wire at fuel injector #4 for my tach signal.
7. Happy hunting :-)
