My build thread of the Push-to-start system was basically just that, a build thread. It wasn't very good at detailing how to do it. I've had questions about it over the years and I should have done a better job after it was finished of putting up a better description of how to wire it all. So here is a schematic for the wiring. Much of the details are found earlier in this thread, especially about the anti-theft resistor (which could be very important). Hope this helps future builders.
We have had this system on the car for years now and it's been working fine. The battery in the remotes only last about a year or two at best. Since this system is powered all the time, it does have a bit of parasitic draw, so we keep the car on a battery tender all the time (which is just a good idea anyways). The only thing that has caught me from time to time, is you HAVE to have your foot on the brake to shut off the car. It will not turn off if you just press the button. This is a safety thing. Also, unlike a key, this will cycle through the key positions if you keep pressing the button. That takes bit getting used to and you can get lost on what position it is in (but if your clutch is pushed in and foot on the brake, it will start while cycling through them). Also, it has to be "unlocked" in order for it to start. And it's a good idea to "lock" it if you are at a car show so some loose fingers don't hit the button and turn on the ACC or something.
