Failsafe remote starter in 5 Speed Legacy GT

Recommended Posts

So, had my remote starter and alarm installed , i went with the Viper 2Way Responder Unit, retails for 599.99, think its model # 791. got it new off ebay for like 210 shipped. anyways, the legacys have a "neutral position wire" that comes off the transmission sensor and goes to the ECU. if you run that wire to a relay, then to the brain of the remote starter, it cant start if in gear. really a great feature. if anyone is interested, let me know and ill try and post step by steps after work. thanks!

I'm interested too- I had no idea that the car could sense whether the stick was in neutral :eek:
In trying to fix my stalling issue, SOA had the dealer replace my neutral safety switch. Apparently it is used for engine management, in addition to killing the cruise control. (In case you were wondering, there exactly 8 spares in the entire USA. Make that 7 now.)

lol.. I posted that this existed way back when we probably had the first thread about this.. I guess I'm the only one that looked at the service manual ;) My big problem is not wanting to defeat the immobilizer.. *ugh*

 

yeah i to used this neutral wire and in an even simpler fashion. tag it into the hood switch wire using a 79 cent diode
