Default Viper 5501 Remote Start HELP PLEASE!!!!!

I have an 03 supercrew, and I just put a 5501 remote start in. There is no security with this system. Just start and keyless entry. I get no error message but no cranking either. I have no power coming out of the module on the ignition or starter wires either. There is power to the module and it will go through the programming menus. Here is what I have hooked up:


Viper- Vehicle- Description

H1/2 Red- Yellow (Ign. Harness)- 12V Constant
H3/4 Violet- Red/Lt. Blue (Ign. Harness)- Starter
H3/1 Pink- Dark Blue/Lt Green (Ign. Harness)- Ignition 1
H3/6 Pink/White- Red/Black (Ign. Harness)- Ignition 2
H3/3 Orange- Black/ Lt. Green (Ign. Harness)- Acc.
H1/11 White- Brown (Light Switch)- Parking Lights
Door Lock Blue- Pink/Yellow (Power Lock Switch)- Power Unlock
Door Lock Green- Pink/Lt. Green (Power Lock Switch)- Power Lock
H2/1 Lt. Green/Blk- Dark Green/Purple (Kick Panel)- OEM Disarm
H2/9 Violet/White- Lt. Green/White (Coil)- Tach
H2/17 Brown- Lt. Green (Brake Switch)- Brake Shutdown
H2/18 Black/White- Ground- Neutral Safety
H1/5 Black- Ground- Chassis Ground
H1/7 Blue- Dk. Blue (Steering Column)- Horn

I do not have the bypass hooked up yet... One problem at a time.... however with the key in the ignition I believe the PATS system should allow the vehicle to start. I also think on the PATS 1 system the vehicle should crank regardless. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ok, well to begin with, you dont use the starter wire. thats what you have to use the bypass module for. The PATS senses the key turning to crank, and sends a decreased voltage to the computer, from there the computer turns the starter relay on, which in turn starts the truck. The bypass module simulates the voltage drop to allow starting. follow the install directions with your bypass module and it should start right up

This starter has Fused ignition and accessory wires as well as non - fused. Anyone know what that is about?

Ok, here is the update. I figured out some more with the remote start tonight. For the record you definitely do need the purple starter wire from the module to the ignition harness on the vehicle. Also, the fused ignition wires need to be hooked to 12V constant. That powers up the ignition and accessory wires from the module. The problem I have now is the red/black accessory/starter input wire needs to be hooked up. When this wire is touched to a power source the vehicle starts, however, the starter does not disengage. My question is do I need a relay in there someplace in order to get the starter circuit to function correctly? To clarify, this vehicle has 2 ignition, 2 accessory, and 1 starter wire. If anyone knows anything about external relays with dei systems your help would be great. Thanks.
