02 Pontiac Grand Prix, Viper 5704

Split load simply means all those wires mentioned H1/2, H3/2, H3/6 and H3/9 all go to a constant source, be it red or red white or if thicker and readily accessible the constant feed to the interior fusebox from the battery. Join so that all the fuses are intact. Viper on the left and Pontiac on the right, surely you can see that? What used to be called "flex relay output" or "satellite relay" is now covered by the 24 pin plug (h/2) and the wire to give you second accessory is the orange at H2/22. Sorry, Kregg is right the brown 3rd. ACC wire doesn't need to be powered up.

the colors on the left hand side match the diagram I have for my car and the right side seems to match what I have for the Viper.

2 thoughts a) The left hand side of your screen has a blue border. b) Do you actually have an installation guide for the 5704? I GIVE UP.

One problem if the left side is supposed to be the viper then my harness isn't colored right. There is no yellow starter wire on the 10 pin connector, there is however a yellow starter wire for my car. So I'm very confused Howie please don't give up on me :-P

Looking back from your point of view I realise it must be confusing. Go to the last paragraph before the relay description, work from that with the alarm wires and colours on the left. As you realised the Pontiac STARTER is yellow. That one gets cut, key side to green and motor (i.e. away from the switch) to the violet. The others all get joined.

1 question about the flex relay. Do the wires that come off of the 10 pin connector get rid of the need for the diodes? If not then what do I do with the diodes I'm still having a hard time picturing how they would go together with the wires how I would do that? also does the 24 pin connector use some kind of mechanism to stop the DTC from popping up or are the diodes required for that as well. I'm starting to realize that there's a lot of wires that are going to be connected to the ignition harness is it okay to tap into the ignition wire harness then wrap all the wires on to their connections together and then solder?

The only wire needing a diode is the thin orange at h2/22 for the ACC. The thick wires won't need diodes just join.

I got a 40 amp single pole double throw relay for the trunk release, that will work just fine right?

Yes.

About how big are the ignition wires typically? Are there any tips that you guys have for making the install it easier? I was thinking maybe removing the front seats. Any other tips you might have that would make life easier that would be cool :-)
