im trying to install a car alarm on a 02 civic manual transmission . i haven‘t connected any wires but i have tested every wire for the connection. 1) on the alarm manual it says ((((park light(+) - 10 amp positive output to activate park light))) i tested the wires (there are 2 identical red/black wires) when the parking light is off the multmeter reads 0v for both , and when the park light is on, one of the wires read 12v and the other reads 150 mv. which one do i connect it to?2) the Tach (A/C) i think it means the remote start it says ((IMPORTANT! never install automatic transmission module into manual transmission vehicle))) the module is for automatic transmission . this just means that it may cause damage to the objects surrounding the car if i don‘t put it in neutral right?3) also what is the (((ground when running (-) / starter kill - output active during remote start))) what does it do and where do i connect the wire?
Think about how a motorcycle tire looks, it is rounded, OK now think about how a car tire looks, it is flat on the top to get maximum contact on the pavement. now let me paint you a picture, you are taking a corner after you have done your foolish idea and the car tire that you have stuffed on your Bike is riding on a corner with very little contact to the pavement and it slips or you turn too hard or you stand it back up and you lose control because there is not enough contact with the pavement. I don't know wat you are thinking, my suggestion would to buy a good tire and you could get some more miles out of it but 10,000 per tire on a bike, That's pretty good. My Point being if you put a car tire on the back of your bike you will crash, i hope when you crash you only kill your self and no one else gets hurt.
Are you crazy? a car tyre on a motorcycle is the most silly thing I have heard in a long while. 30,000 miles from 3 x tyres is good, its not a car its a bike, if you want car mileage drive a car. A superbike will do about 2000 miles to a rear tyre, my off road bike gets about 500 miles to a rear tyre, so 10,000 miles for your road bike sounds good to me, its a heavy bike as well, cheap tyres will not last that long my advice would be to spend some money on a decent bridgestone or similar brand tyre you get what you pay for and the most important thing on a motorcycle is the tyres. So please my answer if you like being alive that is and I know you did not ask for a discussion is DO NOT DO IT. Either buy a motorcytcle tyre or drive your car, sounds like you should stick to cars anyway. End of lecture.
Avon or Continental hard rubber H rated touring tire maybe. Dunlop has a couple numbers with hard rubber/long life also. Car tires on motorcycles are done a lot by sidecar and trike riders that want the flat contact patch and don't lean- otherwise you're asking for poor handling and trouble. .
1. Positive output means the alarm brain sends the voltage to the parking lights. So it acts like the parking light switch, its sends 12v to the relay right? Solder it to the wiring giving you 12v. Make sure its the low side of the circuit (before the relay, or you will fry your alarm's brain). A test light would also be helpful here so jump a positive to the wire and see if the parking lights come on. 2. Yup. You got that right get used to just using your parking/emergency brake and never put it into gear. This wire is so the brain learns how long it needs to crank the engine for it to start successfully ( Tach input) its not a must but nice sometimes. 3. It means the brain has to see ground for the remote start to activate if it doesn't see the ground it won't remote start. Solder it to the parking/emergency brake switch to ground out when pulled up IF the alarm doesn't have a dedicated parking brake wire. If it does have a dedicated parking/e-brake wire (most do) buy a small toggle switch and wire it up to ground and install the switch hidden so nobody can see it, that way if you let someone borrow the car they wont accidentally remote start it in gear. While your under the dash remember to bypass the clutch switch. Hope this helps out, good luck with the install.
