Sending you a PM now re manuals.

 

 

Do you guys love popcorn or is this the latest trick on increasing post count?

Hopefully I can have the wiring ready in a few days. A few folks have offered to purchase the first unit AND help me with the kinks. The hope is that it works right off the bat. I also need to find the part number of the plastic key hole cover. I'll be precutting those and including them in the kit. Looking at making this as plug-n-play as possible.

I'll be sending a link here for the installation instructions for the Supra. You guys can then read up on it and get more familiar with its operation and installation (will be similar to the Vettes).

 

Do you think this will be an easy install or a little difficult to do?

Both....not really. It is an easy way for a possible customer to get back to this tread and stay updated on what's going on. Hopefully one day your push button start/stop will be Plug n Play and readily available for us electrically challenged at a decent price.

 

Thats the intent, but being that I cannot locate a MALE connector that can plug in directly to the ignition harness connector, the installer will need to do some cutting/splicing. Us Supra guys have TURBO TIMERS. I was lucky to have the adapter cables for those which makes installation of this start button so much easier.

Take a look at the instructions. I plan to make them as concise as possible to help anyone locate connectors and such for installation.

 

Excellent Instructions. I can see you design your products well and I will be buying one of these when you get them in kit form.

 

I just thought of this:

Don't the automatic cars have a cable on the back of the ignition switch that goes to the shifter??? What happens to that?

 

In the process of getting the schematics.... thanks to those who have been helping so much.

 

Would you please post them when you get them, I searched 4 hours last night and could not find anything.

Thanks

 

Wow this is a lot to read! I've installed many alarms in these types of vehicles and I don't see any reason that you can't tap the FOB's receiver to disarm/arm the security system. It works with remote starters when you only want to use one fob (the starters and not the factory unit) You can even pop the trunk with the aftermarket fob if you tap it there. There are guys selling the whole unit for the newer C5's that have the fobs included so you can use the newer cheaper tire pressure sensors since it is the same RFID system. The VATS system is a really easy bypass. With the Column lock bypassed it should be a no brainer. The only thing you would lose is the separate memory pre-sets for each fob. You'd still have ONE if you use the wires at the receiver.

I'm one to leave it all stock....but I applaud your efforts and I will help any way I can. (I wouldn't rule it out for the future, though.) I have all of the manuals and can scan some pages if it will help.

I've read a bunch of posts from people that have no idea how this stuff works. If done right this system will work WITH what's already in the car, the system will just use a different way to trigger the devices. Black ZO6 is right about a lot of the systems, but they won't be affected if you tap the right wires. The system doesn't know that it wasn't the FACTORY FOB that triggered unlock, it would just perform its function like it WAS the factory FOB. Just like all the remote starters I have installed in these cars. It just uses a passive system rather than an active system.

ISEERED

 

 

not to put down the OP's thread though, I just don't understand the use (pros) of the idea of a push button start. The Viper's set up is a joke, you have to put the key in and turn it part way anyways.

 

The push button start is a nice easy clean install where you can just hop in and go with out digging for keys.

 

Is this thread now dying?

 

I dont think so, it has been a Holiday week and all of the forums I frequent have been slow.

 

I for one hope it's not dying. I'm very excited for this project.

 

Me too.

I think it is an excellent theft deterrent if someone carjacks you. Keep the fob in your pocket and the car will eventually die when they drive away.

 

I have a C5 and bought a C6 two weeks ago. I prefer the key, I really do. That damn panic button on my C6 FOB has gone off twice unintentionally, and no I didn't have keys in the same pocket. Really pisses me off.

 

Not dead, still looking through the electronic diagrams for the C5. At least, trying to get them
