Anyone know a place to get a remote start and get it installed? Any reccommendations for one?

Preferably someone who knows what they are doing so they can set it up so that the alarm/immobiliser doesn't turn the engine off when doors are opened etc.

Thanks.

I dont remember the exact name of the ppl that did mine but if you look in the Trading Post in the Auto section they're the ones that come out to you...Although its usually accompanied with an alarm setup....

They've got 3 different packages to choose from which give you different features....

ye they should, mine wont start in any gear other than reverse or ofcourse if its in neutral

What happens if the safety mechanism fails and it accidentally starts and runs over a kid? then u go to jail. Same things with turbo timers, they are illegal too even though pretty much everyone has them :laugh:

Remote engine starts are a smart idea but ever since my car started in reverse while i wasnt in the car i havnt used it other than one in a blue moon to show some 1 how it works

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
