I can try .... can you scan the wiring diagram, or provide a link - maybe we can make heads or tails of it.

I have read alot about the problems thor is giving people and I wish I never bought the dang thing but I did and want to atleast try to use it..

I have read over the poorly translated manuel and the thing that is stumping me is the lock and unlock wires.

I have a 98 eagle talon. If anyone has installed one of these in this tpe of car please hit me up and help if you can with the 6 diff. freaken wires they have compaired to the 2 wire switch I have in the door.

Any help woud be greatly GREATLY helpful.

[PaulD]

it probably has two sets, one for cars that have pos lock and the other for cars with neg lock

[schaw]

Aye, I messed around with it today to try to figure it out.. Seems to work now.. had to jump the pos/neg org with the const. power and pos/neg yellow to the ground.

Got it all set up and installed.. Only prob now is the remote start. When armed or what not to start the car it turns the ACC on as its about to start but does nothing after that ACC goes off. Not sure if its the motor wire (sensor wire) that I have connected to my tack wire or not. Will disconnect that just to see if that could be it. If its not then Im back to the drawing board.

Right now I have the blue to the acc blue from the replay, the 3 relays the reds jumped to one to the const. power the black to the ON the white to the other ON asssuming its the AC ON as when I start the car that wires output dies till the car is started and the blue wire to the start wire that has no current when on ACC or ON but lights up when the key is turned to START.

If this makes any sense to anyone that could help that would be great....

I wonder if this is the prob then that it has to learn the signal.. how do you make the alarm learn the signal? I have not yet unhooked the tack wire to test just curious as I just re-read this?

[PaulD]

I have never done an auto start, so I really can't help you on this part

[schaw]

I got it all figured out.. what a pain... well if anyone in the future has any probs with this alarm for installation shoot me a private message and I will do my best to help ya out...

hi, i got a system for my car called a thor pro alarm and it came without the wiring diagram. All i am looking for is the diagram which is supposed to come with the un it when purchased. I tryed winging it and it is driving me crazy. Please help. Thanks, chris.

[PaulD]

I have never seen one in person. From looking on the internet, looks like they are overpriced and have lots of problems - including poor customer service. Have you tried going to their site and getting the info straight from them ?
