ok guys, let's pick some brains a bit here.... this is my story.
i went to install a remote start on my talon, and i ran into this particularly peculiar situation.
I found that I have the following wires from my ignition:
black w/ yellow stripe
black w/ white stripe
solid blue
solid black
blue w/ red stripe
and one big black possibly a wire that goes directly into the back of the ignition switch. if it's a wire, it's a big one. EDIT: nah, it's not a power wire i don't believe.dunno what it is, but it doesn't have a plug or nothin.
as I tested, this is what the wires went to.
black/yellow goes to crank, that only has power when the car is cranking.
black/white goes to ignition, only powered in the "on" position
those match up with the charts on here: 1990-92 Eagle Talon Alarm, Remote Starter, Keyless Entry Wiring Information
now it gets crazy:
here's a pic....
1. i don't have a white 12V constant. there just is no white wires there.
2. the blue/red wire acts like a 2nd ignition wire. it's on only when the key is in the "on" position. oh yah, and the blue/red wire DOESN'T EXIST.
3. the blue and black wires DON'T EXIST EITHER. as tested, they act like constant 12V wires.
so in essence, here's a short version.
1. i have 3 wires that potentially don't exist.
2. i don't have 2 wires. (one that's 12V+ in ACC, one constant 12V+)
3. i have potentially a messed up car wire.
oh yah, and last crazy thing. seeing as I don't potentially have a ACC wire, i found the head unit harness and backpinned what the harness connector said was the 12V switched, and that was on all the time. so i'm just utterly confused.
