Im from the UK and we don't usually connect the alarm to the parking lights but to the indicators. I've seen the wiring diagram for the Ram using the search, thanks for that, but just wondering if anyone knows where the indicator wiring is??

I've been having problems with my central locking and I used diodes and resistors, i think I will have a look at using Relays instead, anyone else get the same problem???

Also, where did that wiring diagram for the Dodge Ram come from?? Directed dealers?? or somewhere else??

Thanks

when you say indicator, you maen the turn signals?

If so, I would imagine they can be found at the switch that activates them.

Just a guess , but they may be multiplexed too.

good luck

If by indicator you mean turn signals as stated above, here is what I did on my car. Turn on the hazzard flashers and find the module that controls the flashers and you have to diode isolate each side so that all four flashers do not turn on when you only want the left or right one. Use you DMM and find the two sires that control the left and right side flashers.

The resistor and diode trick works for a while but when the truck sits for a long period of time the centrallocking module goes to sleep and the resistors aren't strong enough to ake it up and unlock. Use the relays and resistors and they will work everytime. Hope this helps. Here is another tech sheet:

Notes:
NOTE: Chrysler vehicles that use a gray ignition key have an immobilizer system that needs to be bypassed when remote starting. Use DEI part number 555C or 555U. *1 Lock requires a negative trigger thru a 820 ohm resistor. Unlock requires a negative trigger thru a 330 ohm resistor. MUST use relays. *2 Parking lights require a negative trigger thru a 330 or 1.4K ohm resistor. Headlights require a negative trigger thru a 1.8K ohm resistor. There is a rest resistance on the wire, so MUST use a relay to isolate away from the switch. *3 The LF door trigger is tan, and the LR door is tan/orange or PURPLE / orange. These wires are in the driver kick panel. The RF door trigger is tan/red, and the RR door is tan / YELLOW. These wires are in the passenger kick panel. Use all wires and diode isolate each. See directfax document #1076 for wiring information. *4 This will also do door locks. Arm/lock is negative trigger thru a 2K ohm resistor. Disarm/unlock is negative trigger thru a 480 ohm resistor. Single pulse will do disarm without unlocking the doors. Unlock requires a double pulse. MUST use relays. *5 The PCM (Powertrain Control Module) is on the passenger side firewall. *6 The amplifier is located behind the glove box. *7 These wires may not be necessary for remote start. *8 Diesel tach wire use gray/black in the black plug at the PCM.

Yeah turn indicators. yeah i will have to find them using a DMM and isolate via diodes, just thought someone might know the wire.

I spoke to the guy who did the alarm and he said he used Resistors and Relays, has anyone got a diagram of how it should be connected so i can double check his wiring??

thanks
