Installing a remote starter without cutting factory wires?

One more question for the night. This package came with a relay satellite module that I have yet to install. It looks like the meat of the starter portion of the setup. I just want to verify where these wires go before I start cutting.
PURPLE (+) starter output: After cutting the starter wire connect the PURPLE wire to the end going to the starter motor.
This goes to the harness side of D8/Pin7 (Black)

GREEN starter kill: After cutting the starter wire connect the GREEN wire to the end going to the key side of the ignition.
This goes to the switch side of D8/Pin7 (Black)

RED (2) (+)12V input for relays: These wires are the source of current for all the circuits the relay satellite will energize. They must be connected to a high current source. Since the factory supplies (+) 12V to the key switch that is used to operate the motor, it is recommended that these wires be connected there. NOTE: If the factory supplies two separate (+) 12V feeds to the ignition switch, connect one RED wire of the satellite to each feed at the switch.
These 2 will go to D8/Pin5 (Grey) & D8/Pin4 (Yellow)

ORANGE (+) accessory output: Connect this wire to the accessory wire in the vehicle that powers the climate control system.
This will go to D8/Pin2 (white)

PINK (+) ignition output: Connect this wire to the ignition wire in the vehicle.
This will go to D8/Pin1 (Green)

PINK/WHITE (+) output to second ignition/accessory circuit: Connect this wire to the second ignition or accessory wire in the vehicle (selectable menu feature 2-9).
This will go to D8/Pin6 (Pink)

RED/WHITE 12 V input: If additional current capacity is needed cut this wire, add a fuse adequate for the circuit to be supplied, and connect to an additional 12V source.
Not to sure about this one. Is it even needed?

is my ignition 12v and ignition 2 flipped or is his wrong?

oh, what is happening, well...
i was really hoping the LED on remote start would blinking like it's suppose to when it recieves the signal from the oem keyless remote presses but nothing. nothing is happening except my doors lock or unlock depending on what button i press. suppose to be 3 unlock presses within 3 seconds for remote start.

OK. I updated the pic in the last post.

Ignition is 12V.

Pink is Ignition.
Green is Ignition #2
Blacks are starter

thanks for the pictures!

i have the correct connections for the above. troubleshooted with ultrastart support in CA, guy found i had my start wire for the remote start in the wrong harness slot, moved it. supplying 12v+ 3 times activated starter. then just had to take that wire an applied it to my door unlock which was on the most bottom harness in the kick panel fat light blue(12+). tested unlock switch 3 times, started. tested unlock in remote 3 times, started.

i thought i connected the brake light so if i step on it when the auto started it would turn off but no. is the trunk wire same as the hood wire? seems that there is no sensor when the hood is open but there is for the trunk. i might have to use the autostart's hood toggle switch which had a perfect mounting hole above the battery that can get hit when the hood is closed. here's a pic but i have not wired it yet.

Trunk and hood are separate. The hood switch is only present when the factory alarm is installed, otherwise you have to add the pin switch included with the remote starter.

The brake switch is either of the green wires on the connector just above the brake pedal. You can't use the brake lights, as the remote starters want a ground on brake.

I used the parking light (-) output, but from another post:

Parking Lights+ green + fuse box, top L, 30 pin plug, pin 29

that would be PERFECT since i have the toyota rs3200 factory alarm w/c means i should have a wire for the hood pin but where is it? there doesn't seem to be any pin/switch for the hood. the dash does not have any indication if the hood is open when it's open just the trunk.

found on another post, Brake Switch - Light Green - At Switch Above Brake Pedal

did you mean park lights is a green wire, by the fuse box, top left...?

Interesting. In the hood latch, there is a place for a hood switch (which is mentioned in the 09 service manual). Maybe it's a newer addition to the RS3200?

Correct on both - Brake switch is either green wire on the connector on top of the brake pedal, and parking lights (+ output) is the light green wire in terminal 29 of the 30 pin connector 4A on the top left of the under-dash fuse panel:

brake switch was easy but odd, i had a choice of blue or green(what happened to light green?)going to the same socket. tapped green, now brake turns the engine off if key is not in prior.


i'm now convinced that all yaris are not made equal. that some unlock wires are green and others (like mine) is blue-green/light blue, whatever. who knows what color my lock wire is, will soon find out.

took a look at 4a and it's buried. cut zip tie and thought that was it but 4a is covered by a release lock, when unlock it disengages the harness. even if i had it removed, just no room to move unless you can fit both your hands inside the drivers left compartment below the cup holder. i think i will have to give the parking lights up

now to locate those rs3200 rearm/disarm wires which are supposed to be 500ma outputs - low current and are designed to activate relays.

Mine wanted a parking light + as well. After struggling with the space to work and tightness of the wires at 4A, I decided to just invert my output with a relay and use the easily accessible parking light - at the headlight switch connector.

With the lock and unlock wires, 07 vs 08-09 have different colors in the kick panel. Position is the same, but wire colors are different.

im 07, just looking for those rs3200 rearm/disarm wires now. i might have to trace the beep noise from when i press the keyless remote and see where it leads me. thank you.

I have the manuals and EWD's for the 2006-2008 RS3200. PM me an email address and I'll shoot them to you...

pm'ed, thanks!

I just bought a 2009 Yaris sedan without keyless entry, i failed to ask before we did all the paperwork at the dealer and assumed all cars with power locks and power windows came with keyless entry and alarm. I was very wrong. Well my question is who here has gotten an aftermarket alarm installed and what i need to know before they install! For example what they need to do and not do, just to avoid any problems with the warranty! Every place that i have called tells yes, no, maybe! I dont know what to do! Thats how i came across YARISworld! Please if any techs here have any suggestions please let me know! thanks in advance!

The main thing is to check around and make sure that the place you chose has a good reputation. The Yaris is by far the easiest car I've installed a remote starter/keyless entry on. All of the connection points are easily accessible. If your 09 has the engine immobilizer (which I believe is standard with the power package), then a transponder key bypass will be required. Some require surrendering one of your keys to be buried in a module under the dash. I used/prefer the Fortin transponder key bypass module, which reads a key and then pretends to be that key.

My car doesnt come with the integrated key chip its just a regular key. From what I've been told by the dealer as that i have just the basic power package (power door locks and power windows) nothing fancy. Would you happen to know what wires they cant or shouldnt mess with? The dealer told me to tell them not to touch the ABS wires or the ECM wires i believe! I'm just worried about all the warranty issues! Oh, and one last thing theyre gonna install a trunk release module so i can open it with the remote. Thanks for your reply!
