2009 Dodge Ram Alarm Wiring

Disclaimer; only posting this info for a do-it-yourselfer who may be looking for this kind of info as I was. Couldn't find it anywhere, so I figured it out on my own. A pro would probably not do it this way. I put my basic $30 keyless entry kit in the other night. My truck is a 2009 ram 1500 ST (base trim) of the new design (4th generation- as I said the 2500 and 3500 are still 3rd gen and I would think should be the same as the 2008s). It is base trim, but still has power locks and windows. I had acquired a lock diagram from a 2008 1500, mine is similar, but different resistor values. Didn't want to pay for an interface, which may or may not be available. Since it's my own truck, I did some dissecting of switches to figure out how to clone them. Coming from the passenger door switch is a purple wire with green stripe. This is the lock signal wire. grounding this wire through a 330 ohm resistor will lock the doors, grounding it through a 100 ohm resistor will unlock the doors. Coming from the headlight switch is a pure white wire, this is the headlight output. Grounding this wire through a 1.146 kilo ohm resistor will turn the parking lights on. No relays are necessary, since these are all just signal wires with no draw. just use a plain old fashioned negative trigger kit with the correct resistors at the wiretaps.

Looks like the starter post was a hoax.

these kits wont work i had  one in the shop today unfortunatly  the kich3 has the chip piece in it for the 08 that you put in the box but that piece is totally different on the 09 base model they also told me there is no safe way to wire the relay pack up to it without that integation piece the only way i have found how to do it is with a factory rs kit its about 240 from dodge but it will still control the door locks and everything else

i see this is an old post but just found out that flashlogic has piece to do this truck four to five wire hookup and your done also does the challengers " I see wire diagrahms "18 yrs+ of installing - not good on the brains LOL
