Still can't find this diagram.
Called scorpion direct today and to be honest I thought they had a very bad attitude.
Refused to give mr a diagram and said I'd have to go through a dealer.
I appreciate they out to make a living and me fitting my own alarm is of no interest to them but I expected a better attitude than I got to be honest.
I called a dealer who had a similar attitude really.
Although he said he'd look into it and if he could get one there'd be a charge, which I don't mind.
Just seems there very unhelpfull
anyone else know where I might get a diagram please ?

Thanks for responses so far peeps

they are not typically readily available due to being a decent alarm, cat 1 etc, if the diagrams were easily available and they gave them out to anyone who asked it could compromise the security of them. i had the same carry on when buying an alrm for my bike a few years back, there is a website that i got the diagram from in the end although i had to pay for it, cant remember the name but i only found it by a google search.

well i cant find a diagram.
ive laid the loom out on the floor and made sense of some of it.
quite a bit im not sure of though.

ive got a load of different coloured wires and a load of black wires .
the black ones are all labeled.the couloured are not.

theres 8 black wires,which i can only assume are immob wires and there black so they cant be identified in the loom to thiefs.
they have letters on them,not sure if anyone would know what they are.
here goes
m
m
n
n1
gr
gr1
r
bL

anyone know where these might go?
if they are immob wires,would they go to the fuel relay,coil wires etc and act like a continuity switch?

As said the diagrams arn't avaliable to the public for good reason as such most decent alarms wiring is black, the wiring is black so as it can't be identified, the labels are removed after fitting.

An immobiliser does as the name suggests and disables (Opens) when armed a circuit that will stop the car from running, a decent immobilser IIRC to meet cat 1 has to have two immobilsation points, starter and ignition for example, I personally would not interfere with the pump as if it did go wrong with the car running you could end up with a meltdown!

Gr may suggest ground but this is purely a guess!

M and M may be the immobilser.
