Electric start question

[bigreis]

I just got done installing an electric start in my 02 Viper and was surprised when I turned the key to the "Run" position, nothing came on except for the Powervalve motor. Is this normal, or did I screw something up with the wiring. I thought that the lights and instrument panel would have been turned on as soon as the key was put in the run position. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm thinking of doing the same. How hard was it to install? Out of curiosity, are you installing electric start due to it is hard to start manually?

Perfectly normal, on my uncle's 05 Vector Mtn its the same way, nothing until the sled is running. Same with his 01 Mtn Max, no gauge lights or anything until you start it.
