1. thick brown wire in the driver foot panel
2. leave empty
3. only need this if you run the remote starter (purple/white wire in the engine harness)
4. white wire behind the brake pedal
5. - trigger for what, the trunk, the hood, what?

6. if you dont know what you're doing, i suggest taking it to a professional.

those wires are all for the remote starter, so then what else haven't you connected that your alarm keeps rearming itself? if you haven't connected the pins for the door, then it probably thinks you haven't opened the door yet to get in, so it rearms itself.

do you know which wire to connect it to

If you read what I posted, you would see that 12v is the RED wire in the ignition harness...

You should be a little more careful when messing with the wiring under the dash.. Its possible you could have hooked something up wrong, and start a fire under there...

If you have the ignition wire hooked up incorrectly, or not at all.. It will cause this problem. If the ign. wire is fine, they'de Id say you have a faulty alarm.

The tach wire is the wire used for remote starting feature..
