I added remote starter wire to my Black Beauty today. I unwrapped BLACK TAPE off the engine wiring harness on the engine side of the false firewall.

It is the harness with rubber ring that pushes into round hole in false firewall.

There are two black wires in harness and the pin 1 in G151 connector power wire to starter solenoid pin 50 is the larger of the two black wires It is the 2.5mm (AWG 12) wire. I used a Tyco AMP splice tap yellow connector for 12-10 size wire to add a 12 AWG wire pigtail. I can now hook my push button remote start cables to this pigtail and power side of 40A cooling fan fuse bar terminal board.

I will be able to do compression test, etc without having to go in the cockpit and turning on the key and turning key to start position.

This remote start feature also will bepass chassis wiring to starter is something fails besides starter.
