Default Ignition Wiring

Hello all,
I have been a lurker on these forums for a while but, this is my first post . Any help on this question would be appreciated. Anyways, lately I've been browsing over some threads on CrossfireForum on installing push to start systems on our cars. This seemed like something I was interested in because my ignition has started to become "sticky". I read over the PDF on how to fix the "sticky key ignition" but, instead of fixing it, I figured a push to start would be much cooler . I have already got everything wired up except for the push to start module itself (which I have not yet ordered). So far, I have put in a DEI 2102T system so that I can walk up to and away from the car and have it automatically lock/unlock. I will also use this to interface with my push to start so that the DEI fob has to be inside the car for the car to start. I have also put in a bypass module so that I can bypass the transponder system. So far so good. Now, once I receive my push to start module, I need to know how the ignition system works on the Crossfire to get it to work properly. Here's what I know: the ignition harness on the Crossfire is a 7 pin harness with (2) +12 wires, (2) ignition wires, (2) accessory wires, and (1) starter wire. What I need to know is which +12v wires power what ignition wires and, when do the ignition wires get "activated". For example, does the ignition 1 wire get powered with the key in the on position but, not powered when the car is started? I guess I just need someone who can explain to me or at least point me in the right direction as to how our ignition systems work. Sorry for posting so much but, I figured you guys might want to know what I am doing. Also, if all goes well, I could potentially make a write up or a video on how I did it!

Thanks,
jhansen
