    Just fitted a push button start to my saxo. Its got a plane style flick swith for the igntion and a button to the right for a starter. Trouble is ive got 4 wire that were meant to connect to my ignition barrel and ive only used 3 for the swith panel. One is white which is an earth i think. One is a blue one which is the starter and there is 2 light brown wires one is the main battery live but i dont now what to do with the other? i cant see it being an earth but i cant understand what its for ive tried putting power to it but nothing seem to turn on or anything click
    Any ideas
    Cheer rich

    No earths on the ignition switch

    1x Perminant 12v feed, to be bridged to the other terminals be the ignition switch

    1x Stage one ignition output, radio...

    1x Stage two ignition output, ignition lights, feed to ecu etc...

    1x Cranking

    I fitted one of these a few years ago. Novelty factor was awesome but not cool when you stall and keep trying to restart the car on the key lol

    Ok firstly "Beaniemoo" is right there is no earths on the ignition barral. Second 1 of the brown wire is the ignition 1 so when you turn the key once that is ignition 1 and the other brown wire is ignition 2 so turn you turn the key again that is ignition 2. Third the white wire is ACC or known as accesories. Forthly the blue wire is the starter. And how do i know this because i fitted my remote start and it toke roughly about 6 hours to fit the fxxking thing lol so i hope this helps thanks.
