Oh my, I'm so scared and confused right now...

I don't have a cam now, I'll try to get one in an hour or so but I'll just post like this for now.

I'll post everythign I did from the beginning okay.

I hvae a compustar CM1000A alarm. Basic unit but I basically got it for remote door lock/unlock cause it's annoying to use the key. ANyways:

I disconnected the negative battery terminal before I began.

THe first connector basically has 4 wires: Red (Constant 12V), Purple (Parking lights), Black (ground), and Grey (trunk).

I went by this: http://www.commandocaralarms.c...Civic

So, I spliced in the red wire to the white wire in the ignition harness.
THen, I found a ground.
Then, I spliced in the purple wire to the red/black wire in the green plug.

I couldn't find the trunk output and I don't really care about that so I just left it unconnected.

I put in the LED in to the car.

So, now, I figured, why not try to test what I have so far? I didn't connect the door locks or siren or anything but according to my logic, if I have the power stuff plugged in and the LED light plugged in then I can

a) see if the LED is working as it should flash when it's armed
b) see if the parking lights flash when I lock/unlock the doors

So... I went and plugged in the negative terminal on the battery...I didn't tighten it down as I was just putting it back on for a minute to see how its going... and before I could mess with anything (maybe 30 seconds after I put the terminal back on) my car tried to start!!!!! It was in first and handbrake was on so it just moved forward a tad (luckily it didn't hit my other car parked in front of it).....then before I could realize what was happening like 10 seconds later it did it again!!! So I ran and disconnected my negative terminal (thankfully I didnt tighten it so I jsut pulled it off) and here I am.

Can someone tell me what's going on? I will get pics to help diagnose but from what I wrote does anything seem wrong? I'm REALLY surprised because my car doesn't start unless I have teh clutch pushed in when I use the key so how would it bypass that somehow and just try to start now??

Thanks!

Oh it's a 92 4 door.

 

put this in audio/video/SECURITY they will be more help there

 

I'm an idiot, I didn't see the security section, can a mod move it ?

Thanks.

 

Double check your wire schematic and make sure all your wires are hooked up right.

I had installed a remote starter security system in my Teg a while back. works great for except when the car is in gear.

Had it take off on my *** a few times. Decided it wasn't cool to have a remote starter for manual trans.

I'm pretty sure you have some wires mixed up. What i would do is question the wires that your not to sure of.

Ground those wires and see what they do. These alarm systems work on the negative.

 

coppy past is the only way i no of
put that in nuetral from now on also incase it does start up again. im sure u already figured that out but just in case

 

Thanks guys.

MODS, I made antoehr same thread in the security section so lock this one if you aren't supposed tohave 2..
