Ah, okay that makes sense Ted. I went and removed the relay since I do not want to have a dead battery said from the system and am waiting for the local shop to open tomorrow. I looked over 1076 and from what Howie said for wiring I will need four diodes, correct? Two diodes going from the BCM to the switches for driver and passenger doors and two going from the alarm system to the switch side of the other diodes. Also, what would be the best diode to use in this install, I see that 1076 says 1 amp diode and I found 1N4004 at my local shops site would these do the job? Thank you both for all of your help and sharing your knowledge. I work in a radio communications repair shop but never really dived into car installs until recently.

you should need 8 total. One on each of the 4 door pins INLINE to the bcm, and 4 to isolate one another to the alarm.

1n4004 will work just fine.
