Ok, today i searched around. I looked to the right of the gas pedal for the GEM module....didnt find anything. I did however find a white control box behind the parking brake. It says "remote keyless/Anti Theft" on it. It does have  the pink / YELLOW and the pink/lt green on it, but i probed them while using my factory keyfob and got nothing. Is this the GEM module?

Thanks

Rich

After thinking about it, I went out and measured again, but this time I used the door lock switch instead of the keyfob! (DUH!) and I did get the voltage on those wire colors mentioned above. I'm just suprised that the hook up would be so simple and without diodes!  (So Far!)  More to follow I'm sure!

Thanks

i am now wondering about the door triggers, I it easier to just grab the dome light wire for the trigger? Or find each door trigger by itself?

Thanks

Got me a Code CA6551 and I'm trying to figure out how I can still use the priority dr door unlock like on my factory keyless was.  Right now, I am using the pink/lt grn for the unlock, but it unlocks them all at once. Am I on the wrong wire color?

Thanks

Rich

You will need to find the driver door unlock motor wire a relay and a diode. Also what model and year we really can't do anything without that knowledge.

Ok...Hit a bump....Trying to find the GEM module in my 01 Ford F150 Supercrew. according to the Sheet I have, it says right above the gas pedal. I check ed and there is nothing there. all I am looking for is my door trigger wire, everything else is done. I looked all over for the GEM and cant find it. I got my door lock and unlock wires off a white colored "Keyless entry" module mounted up high above the parking brake. I am looking for the drk GREEN/ Orange wire correct?

Sitting on the sideline...

Thanks

Rich

The wire I needed to interface to wake up my GEM was high in the driver's kick. A real PITA to get to.
I normally just pulse the ignition with the trucks that require GEM wake up. Set your unit to double pulse unlock...use a relay to pulse the ignition with the aftermarket system's factory alarm disarm wire. If your truck also has factory security you will need to diode isolate the output. Do a search of this forum, there are quite a few posts about GEM wake up and how to do it without using the tech document.
Installer, IT support, and FFL. I need less hobbies.
