Hey Guys im installing a remote start in my wifes 2001 jeep could someone please email with a site to get the color codes in the steering colum. Thanks Scott
what kind of jeep is it? if it's a grand cherokee and you plan on also doing an alarm and keyless entry...you're going to need a 455J from DEI. Also, you're going to need either a 555C or a 555U to bypass the factory security system. but...

Notes:
NOTE: Jeep 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 The PCM (powertrain control module) is located on the drivers side inner fender well near the radiator support. *2 Must use relays to trigger the lock and unlock wires. Close all doors when testing. *3 Also found in a large connector at the junction block in the passenger kick panel. *4 In a gray 2 pin connector.

Notes:
NOTE: Jeep 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 Use ORANGE / black and pink/black at the drivers door lock switch to lock and unlock the drivers door. Use ORANGE / purple and pink/purple at the passengers door lock switch to lock and unlock all of the other doors. *2 The dk. blue/pink will flash the hazard lights. They will flash even with a latch input to the wire. The parking lights can be activated by using a 1300 ohm resistor to ground on the yellow headlight wire. *3 Use a 330 ohm resistor to ground for headlight activation. Use 80 ohms to ground on the same wire to operate both the headlights and parking lights. *4 There are 4 separate door triggers wire, one for each door. Use all 4 wires and diode isolate each together. The drivers door is tan/red at the drivers door lock switch. The passenger door is tan/red at the passengers door lock switch. The drivers rear door is tan/orange and the passengers rear door is tan / YELLOW at the BCM. WHEN USING A 455J INTERFACE MODULE, IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO USE THE SEPARATE TRIGGER WIRES. USE THE YELLOW WIRE AT THE UNDERDASH LIGHT FOR DOOR TRIGGER. *5 Factory alarm disarm requires a 463 ohm resistor to ground on the lt.GREEN/ orange wire at the drivers door lock switch, you MUST use a relay. *6 The 4.7L motor has a separate coil for each cylinder. Go to any coil and use any wire that is NOT dk. GREEN/ orange. On the 4.0L motor use any of the tan/stripe wires at the coil pack, or go to one of the fuel injector and use the wire that is NOT dk. GREEN/ orange. *7 Can also use DEI part number 455J door lock interface control module. This will control door lock, unlock, arm, disarm, dome light supervision and more.
I take no responsibility for these wiring diagrams and they are to be used at your discresion. I am not responsible for any damages incurred in the process of installation or of the outcome. GOOD LUCK AND ENJOY!
