remote starts on dodge vehicles

Jeff, Thanks once again.  But what is the 3rd ACC wire I have listed for??  The 14GA pink / YELLOW??  Is this the ABS stuff or just like the radio and such??  Thank you again for your time.

OK...help again!!!  Sometimes I hate relays...and I know it's because I have something wrong!!  I think....

OK, got to wiring everything in.  I am using 3 relays on top of the system.  I am using IGN 1 to power one of my small ignition wires, 16ga pink.white and IGN 2 to power the pink/green AND supply the "kick" to the relay to power the large blue, listed as Ign 3. 

Same goes for the ACC wire from my RS unit...I use it to control the small pink / YELLOW ACC wire and it "kicks" 2 relays, one for other pink / YELLOW and one for the large pink / YELLOW. 

Everything works fine...up to, starting the truck normal with the key.  The relays all engage...which I knew they would because the "supply" for them comes from my factory ignition wires....but they are getting kina warm.  Not hot by any means, but after say, 15 minutes, they are warm to the touch.  Is this normal??  Would it be better to use the IGN 2 and ACC 2 outputs from the alarm itself to drive the relays, instead of using the factory circuits as I am?? 

I guess what I'm concerned with is the backfeed of positive into the relays...will this hurt anything??  Because, even under normal starting conditions, using the key, when powered up, the 12volts is there, on the backside of the relay...does this hurt anything?? 

Hopefully I didn't confuse anyone!!  Thanks for the help!!

I shoulda bought a Ford or Chevy...I would have had it done already.....and no questions!!!!!! 

the relays should not engage when you use the key. mind on sharing hhow you wired up the relays? i would have wired it up like so

85 - negative trigger from remote start for optional relays

also to prevent backfeed, you can place a diode across 85 and 86. Cathode (white band) on 86.

you could use the 12v ignition out to power the relay as well. usullay optional outputs (-) are about 500mA which is sufficiant in driving 2-3 relays. But if you wish to use the 12v ignition out then wire it up like so.

85 - 12v out from remote start for acc or ignition (depends what your trying to achieve)

OK...got it all done and in!!!  Went perfectly!!  I figured out which wires controlled what circuits and it is great. 

One more question though....my clutch switch is a (-) signal and I was wanting to wire it into my Negative Out while running, since I can't find one that is just Negative Out while  starting. 

My question to it is...is it ok for the (-) signal to be on the clutch switch for that long, continuous??  My timer is set at 20 minutes...so is it OK for the (-) to be there for that long without hurting anything?? 

Thanks!!

Hey Velocity, Thanks for the cluth info.  And while I gotcha...where can I find the Cam sensor you mentioned above??  As in, where is it mounted at on the truck and what color wire am I looking for??  Thanks.

And as usual....ONE more thing!!!

I found this in the install guide for my 727 unit:

GRAY/BLACK WIRE: 200 mA (-) Second Starter Output

So, I can use this to supply the (-) signal for my clutch...BUT is the 200ma enough or do you recommend using a relay for this??  Probably be safer anyways to prevent damage to the unit.....

The cam sensor is at the front of the engine & you will need to get onto a creppy crawler and look under the engine. You will see a 3 pin connector attached to the cam sensor wrapped in tape. Cut the tape away and I've found 3 different wire colors so far on 8 different Dodge trucks that I've worked on so far this year. What has been consistent is that the wire ( looking at the side of the plug that plugs into the cam sensor with the release tap on top ) is on the left side of the plug.

That should still work with a 200 mA output. Try it out and if it doesn't work place a relay on this wire to boost the (-) output of the unit.
