We aren't interested in "power on key". We are only interested in those wires powering up on remote start activation.

Ok we'll I have continuity to the plug from all wires. When I remote start nothing happens. No power on any wires with exception of the ones connected to a constant 12v. What about why my remotes would not open the car this morning?

Again test everything, either bad wiring or a faulty unit.
If you crimped, there's a chance of wires pulling out, when pros crimp, we use $100 compound action crimpers and I personally pull on every wire to make sure.

My point of testing the wires with the key on for power is so I can rule out faulty wiring. If I have power my connections are good leaving a faulty unit.

Testing with the key on just tells us your ignition is OK!
It tells us nothing about the unit for the fourth time (me x 3 and Smokeman once), try from the unit, it's the ONLY way to determine if the unit is faulty.
Incidentally failure rate on the Viper R/S or for that matter Compustar or Avoxx/Prestige is in the region of 0.1% if a new unit from a reputable dealer rather than Fleabay.

I told you several times as well when I press the remote start button nothing happens. No clicks no voltage on ignition or accessory wires. Do we agree that my wiring was correct from previous posts?

Yes but did you physically test those outputs with a meter when trying the R/S?
