    So im installing a push button rfid starter. However looking at my wiring and the wiring from the diagrams. Im confused as to which wires are what. I have some purple wires coming out of wire harness that aren’t labeled making it difficult. Any help is greatly appreciated. Just trying get them connected properly and can’t seem to figure it out.
    Here are some photos.

    That #10 Red wire is the main Battery wire.
    The Purple wire is the solenoid wire (SOL)
    The ACC is the Brown
    IGN1 is the Pink

    The starter wire would be the purple to their yellow
    #10 Red to both of their red wires

    I would use a test lamp to determine the other connections. They are telling you what wires have voltage and when.

    My guess is their white to the Pink and their Brown to your Brown.

    Why are you trying to install this, just curious.:)

    Installing for added security since you will need RFID to start the car and it will be a push button in place of the lighter, give it a modern touch and the security benefit.

    OK, you should be able to figure it out with a test light. Let us know how you make out.

    Thanks again Larry I Set the wires up according to the diagram you sent me in your recommendations and it fired up perfectly works like a charm. I’ve attached a photo of how I have it currently connected I’m trying to find a harness or do you think it would be OK leaving it like this?

    I'd wrap the whole thing up with electrical or harness tape, and secure it out of the way with tie wraps if necessary.
