Notes:

*1 Keyless models use positive trigger for lock, and 5-wire for unlock. Can also find wires at the central timer module to the right side of the steering column, lock is ORANGE / green, unlock is pink/green.  *2 To avoid dome delay, use tan for the drivers door and BLACK/ lt. blue for the passenger door. Both wires are located at the central timer module to the right side of the steering column. Use both wires and diode isolate each.  *3 Arm is negative trigger thru a 644 ohm resistor. Disarm is negative trigger through a 1.5K (1500) ohm resistor. MUST use relays.  *4 Diesel tach wire is gray/black and diesel wait to start wire is ORANGE / black (-) 'see direct fax document #1090'. Both wires are located on the center of the firewall. There are two black plugs, the wires are in the top plug without the white insert. The tach wire can also be found at the ECM on the passenger side firewall in connector C-1, pin 8. If using the org/blk for wait to start causes a shifting or cruise control problem then use a pulse timer relay instead, refer to directfax #1091 for wiring information.  *5 This wire requires a high current negative, must use relay.

thanks for the help guys.still having problem with dome light after it's hooked up and he arms the alarm he could still open door and not set off alarm could it be that he needs a relay for it to work? my cousin is going to contact the dodge factory for wiring diagram. again thanks for the help guys

What kind of alarm is it ? Is there a delay in the time that the alarm arms and the time it takes for it engage ?Jeff

jeff the other day he remote started and armed his truck after a minute or so he opened the drivers door and the truck just kept on running if he popped his hood and the truck died and set off the alarm thanks again john

jeff it's delta brand alarm and he has a hood trigger so thats what set off the alarm when he had it running thanks john b

Make sure that the wire he used for the door trigger is outputting a (-) signal to the door trigger wire on the Delta alarm. If the door trigger is not sending a ground to the Delta, then you will have to look at the pin switch or the wire itself on the truck.Jeff
