iv just bought a cheap alarm off ebay, heres the link incase anyone else has one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8023658614&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1

anyway iv wired most of it up apart from the remote start and central locking although i understand the c locking i just havnt had time

on the wiring diagram it mentions about wrapping a wire around the high coil does anyone know what a high coil is, does it mean the ht lead?

you realise remote starting wont work with the key immob system in your cinq?

it does with mckrich chip tho ; )

Hi, I have an Aolin 838 which does the same as your alarm.
The instruction manual is translated (poorly) to english - you do not need to wrap any alarm wire around any car wire at all (especially ht leads).
Just follow the wiring diagram, and you should be fine.

ill get a pic or scan of the wiring diagram, im confused

here is a link to my alarm wiring diagram.

havnt got a scanner so jsut took a pic of my diagram, may have to zoom in though
whats the high coil then?

anyone got any ideas????

SORRY!!
Ok. I agree with you then.
my alarm has a wire to sense alternator charge, looks like yours works by sensing high voltage through ht leads.
have you got a coil?
use the main ht lead from it if you do. (wrap wire around it.)

iv got a cinq, so theres 2 coils

I am assuming the wire senses power going through the lead to let the alarm know the engine is running. You should be able to use any of the ht leads as they will all have power going through them.

if this wire is not connected/connected correctly all that will happen is the alarm will retry to start the car. If the engine is already running and the alarm retries, just disconnect the remote start wiring connector from the alarm.(the one with the 3 relays). Unlock from the alarm remote twice, this should put the alarm and engine off.
