trunk release to trigger alarm

very true stuntinonabusa but I dont have the shock sensor set up to trigger my alarm. I only have it wired to set off the pre warning chirps because my shock sensor would either be way too sensitive or not enough. Is there a way to wire a relay that will disable the trunk release button when armed?

yea yo uwill break continuit on it.

85 - constant 12v

86 - ground when armed from alarm system.87 - N/C87a - trunk wire button side30 - trunk wire trunk solenoid side

Thanks Tedmond. I have a relay for my trunk release. I have my alarm programed so that if I use my remote to pop the trunk, the alarm gets disarmed at the same time. Would I put this relay (one you mentioned) on the button side of the trunk release relay or on the trunk solenoid side?

well assuming you placed it at the button, the relay setup i showed you, just wire that in normally. Then take the 12v trigger (aux 1) from your unit and connect that 12v wire to pin 30.

so to break it down for you

negative aux from unit to power relay for trunk release

85 - constant 1286 - neg aux 1 from alarm unit87 - high current 12v30 - to relay 2 Pin 30. or to pin 87 (only if the unit disarms befor trunk pops.

BREAKING CONTINUITY ON BUTTON FOR TRUNK

I was really hoping I could just keep my trunk release relay in tact. I have the relay because my aux 1 output is negative and the trunk relase wire is positive so I use the relay to convert polarity. I was thinking, couldnt I just wire a relay up, have it connected to the ground when armed output  and place the relay between the trunk release relay and the button? I mean if I was to use the remote to pop the trunk. The power would come from the relay's power wire thus bypassing the other relay. Im not sure but thought it is worth a shot. Any ideas about that?

are you saying you want to use only one relay? but that single relay to break continuity on your trunk and pop it at the same time?

No. Keep the relay I already have installed ( the one that is used to convert the aux to pasotive to pop the trunk. Then install another relay between the first relay and the button that will disable the trunk button inside the car while the system is armed. Since the trunk would be getting its power from the first relay when you push aux 1, the other relay wouldnt effect it (i think). And since I have my alarm programed to disarm when i press aux 1, this should work. Well I hope so atleast?

waht i mentioned above is basically what you want to do. keep one relay to change polarity for trunk pop but at the same time break the wire when you arm it.

Is there anyway to keep the relay for the trunk relase intact just like I do in the picture and then just wire another relay either before or after the 1st relay that would get wired to the ground when armed output. I now understand that the armed output is a negative wire and the trunk wire itself is positive so I would need to convert it. I was just hoping I could keep that relay alone and just add another relay.
