Thank you Velocity

One more question on this 2000 Monte Carlo SS  is on some wiring sheets it says to use + park light wire and on other wire sheets it says use - park light wire and then there are other sheets that says Don't use + park light wire  why is that and

Is there a reason why I Shouldn't use the + wire ??



There is a (-) rest at ground on this wire so you can not use the (+) parking lights.

On GM vehicles you need to hook up to the parking light wire from the headlamp switch. The parking lights are controlled via the BCM in most vehicles and if the BCM senses the lights turning on without the switch being activated, it thinks that there is a short circuit in the vehicle. This will trigger a trouble code and in some cases turn on the check engine light or other indicator light in the cluster to alert the driver of a potential problem. The Impala/Monte Carlo are two such vehicles. The Buick Rendevous is another. There is always a disclaimer with every vehicle wiring info that says you should check and verify every wire for yourself to eliminate errors. Not all wiring lists are completely correct. They are made by humans.

The factory alarm will arm if you pulse the door lock wire and the driver's doorpin wire to ground at the same time. The LF doorpion wire is drak blue in the gray 16 pin plug of the BCM. You can diode isolate the lock wire to do this, but you must also use a relay to open the wire going to the LF doorpin while the vehicle is running under remote start. Failure to use the relay won't allow the doors to lock. The BCM won't allow the doors to lock because it senses the vehicle is running, the door opening and the lock circuit in use. It thinks you are going to lock yourself out of a runing car. Wire terminals 85 & 86 to ignition and negative out when running (diode isolate the negative out when running if using it for anything else) Terminals 87a and 30 are the doorpin pulse wire. One terminal to the lock wire from the remote starter and the other to the dark blue doorpin wire. There may be a slight delay in the doors locking, but it will work.

Thanks

from what I am understanding if i send a ( - ) signal to the dark blue door pin wire that will rearm the alarm ??

the Autostart modle i am using has an extra rearm ( - )signal wire  ..  And as far as not letting the doors lock it would only be running under remote start when the doors were already lock I would hope atleast  but i think you are more talking if it is running and you wish to lock the doors and get out to run into Timmies coffee shop corect me if i am wrong

You need to pulse both the dark blue doorpin wire and the lock wire at the same time to arm the alarm. Use the rearm wire to pulse the doorpin and the lock wire for the door lock circuit. Program the unit for standard secure lock. You do need to add the relay if you want to be able to lock the doors while under remote start, just in case you are at Timmies and want to have the idle mode option engaged like you said.
