Python 5303, 2001 Dodge Intrepid

Hello again; I am a newbie and started a new post now that I have decided on a unit. I do have a few questions to make sure I get everything I need for the install. I have decided to go with the Viper 5303P. I am installing it on a 2001 Dodge Intrepid with out the skim (I have the black key). From what I understand I will need the following: 1 DEI 451M door lock kit. It's my understanding that this comes with resistors BUT does it have the ones I need a 600 ohm and 2700 ohm resistor? Should I buy a 600 ohm resistor and a 2700 ohm resistor? I am going to use the + wire for the parking lights so I can eliminate a relay. Is there anything else I need in order to install this unit? Any tips or tricks that I should know about? Thanks for your time and input it is greatly appreciated! Have a blessed and wonderful holiday season! ED As always thanks for the information and help! It's greatly appreciated

It's actually a 620 ohm resistor for Unlock, but yes, the 451M lit includes both of the needed resistors.

Here is a photo of the listed resistor values included in the 451M kit :

Soldering is fun!

Kreg Thanks again for the information. I'm excited to do this project. Hopefully next weekend I can get it done. It should arrive nest Tuesday or Wednesday.As always thanks for the information and help! It's greatly appreciated

Ok so I do have a question in regards to the door locks. I understand it's a single wire door lock/unlock. With the DEI 451m is it best to tap the single wire twice and then run a wire to the resistor then the other end of the resistor to the 451m wire for unlock and then do the same thing for lock? As always thanks in advance for the knowledge. Also if I find the wire for + parking lights @kick panel I can just wire directly to that for the parking lights.As always thanks for the information and help! It's greatly appreciated

For the locks with the DEI 451M, just follow the Type H diagram. You can insert the appropriate resistor anywhere in the GREEN/ Black and Blue/Black output wires. You can also combine them into one wire ( after the added resistors ) and then run just one wire to the vehicles "one-wire" lock wire. As for the (+) Parking Lights, just set the Pythons' jumper/fuse to (+) and connect the H1/11 White Parking Light wire to the correct wire in the DKP.    Parking Lights(+)      BLACK / YELLOW (+)     in driver kick panelSoldering is fun!

Kreg once again thanks for the information. With being disabled and all the medication I am on I'm not as sharp as I once was. I like to think out loud and be prepared as I can be. Thanks again for your patience and time. I will let you know how the install goes. EdAs always thanks for the information and help! It's greatly appreciated

Sorry for the misinformation. It's a Python 5303P not a Viper. I said Viper above so sorry for the miscommunication. As always thanks for the information and help! It's greatly appreciated

The other question that I have is for the parking lights. In researching this some say DO NOT use the + wire @ kick panel and only use - wire with relay. Others say you can use the + wire. I would like to use the + wire because that will eliminate a resistor and relay. I'm looking for opinions on this. Again this unit is a Python 5303. Thanks. EDAs always thanks for the information and help! It's greatly appreciated

I usually go with the (-) Parking Light wire and a 110 ohm resistor through a relay.  I have these nice little +12V mini-relays

that are less that $.60 each ( in qty's of 50 ).  That being said, you try a locate the (+) Parking Light wire in the DKP or withthis info below.  Once you have located the wire & verified it with a DMM, you could take a fused jumper wire ( 5 Amp fuse )and try it manually.  If all is well, then connect the Python's Parking Light wire ( jumper set to + ).

Kreg your insight and patience and ability to help others is a true blessing! I can't express enough how much I appreciate your responses to what may seem dumb questions! In my research to do this project it's my understanding that my car 2001 Intrepid has 2 ignition wires and also 2 accessory wires. Now I don't have the unit yet it should be here Thursday but will I need to run relays for the 2nd ignition and 2nd accessory wire? I have tried to find a install manual for the Python 5303 but I do not see one on the site. Would an Avital 5303 be the same thing for the most part? As always thanks for the answers.
