just like the title is there anyone that has installed a remote car start on a ek with manual transmission?

How will it work with a turbo timer?

 

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">5. Video bypass, Remote start on 5 speeds and illegal acts. I know most know how to do it and it is against the law period and is not safe. So its not legal here. Search the net or find out on your own. Its not that hard if you read. Make a thread on asking how to bypass any saftey features and it will be locked depending on how the thread is going. Remote start too. If not using a alarm ment for remote start on a 5 speed or adding a saftey bypass it will be locked.</TD></TR></TABLE>

 

Well it is not illegal to have a remote start here and they have specific models and hardware to make it work with manual trannies.

I will google it and see what i get. lol!!!

 

Easy, find a remote start for manual transmission cars, there are more then a few of them, even DEI has come out with manual transmission remote starters, all Compustar and NuStart remote starts will work on 5 speeds.

As for install, they are exactly the same as for automatics except you must also connect a door trigger and hand, ["E"] brake lead.

Remote starters for manual transmission cars will all have a "ready" mode, [reservation mode on Compustars and NuStart systems]. they are all basically the same, come to a stop, set "E" brake, take foot off foot brake, turn ign. switch off, [engine will keep running] get out of car and close door, engine will stop, as long as a door is not opened the car can be remotely started, if a door is opened, "ready" mode is cancelled and car can not be remotely started.94

 

Well in some places it's not illegal to commit suicide. You want us to help you with that too?

 

do I need to bypass the clutch switch?

 

You do not "bypass" the clutch interlock switch, you interface it.
All remote starts have at least one GWR, [ground when running] or status output, this output will supply a ground, [low current] when system is in remote start mode, it is the lead used to interface the CIS.
Or you can just connect the starter ouput from remote start system to the output of the starter relay.94

 

so the GWR will be enough to supply a ground to the CIS?

 

The GWR is enough to energize the starter relay, the GWR lead is connected to the output of the CIS.

What year is your Civic?

I am assuming it is not a right hand drive, so not an EK.

 

96-00 civic I'm sure

 

97 EK

 

You connect to the blue/black lead at the CIS.94
