There is a difference between a Door Trigger and a Door Lock . Door triggers are used for monitoring the doors for the alarm portion of the Zenesis system. It has inputs
for either a (+) or (-) trigger, you only need to connect one. Your car has a (-) trigger signal wire so you will use that.
The Door Lock system is a one-wire system. It needs a straight ground for a Unlock and a ground through a 1.4k ohm resistor for a Lock. You will need to use relays and
follow the diagrams posted above. My comment was about not understanding the Zenesis install guide and it's write up concerning the Blue and Green door lock output wires.
The diagram you posted is kinda blurry / sloppy and it does not use Pin 87a either. It just appears that way.
Soldering is fun!

We had problem after our install. The remote start shuts off after 3-4 secs. We wired the tachometer directly at the sparkplug ignition wire. We didnt install the remote starter kill. Could this be the problem? We also havent hooked up the door locks and unlock because we ran out of time today. We couldnt find the tachometer signal behind the gauge cluster. We checked all pins behind he gauge cluster via multimeter using AC mode. My friend used to measure the tachometer signal voltage on his car by measuring +-5-6 volts.

Did you do the TACH learning procedure? And what about the BYPASS module?  Could you list all of your wiring connections from the Zenesis to the car so we can get a picture of what was done?  Connections soldered, crimped, or t-taps?

Also, what did you use for a transponder bypass? Any "security" type lights on the dash?

We did the tach learning procedure several times but we didnt noticed any recognition signal returned by the remote starter. I also noticed that when the engine starts via remote, theres a high pitch whinning sounds comming from the engine. Normal ignition starts doesnt sound like that when we use the keys. Could it be the starter is still engage and spinning with the motor during remote start? We dont have a bypass module yet we used 1 spare key for now. Is the Starter kill really neccessary for this to work? Also we havent wires the doors lock and unlock yet. Ill post later today after we looked at and reviewed our wirings again. Thanks guys.

If you are not getting the confirmation of TACH learn, then something is not connected correctly. What are you connected to?

Bulldog Security lists TACH wire as   "ANY wire NOT BLACK/ WHITE or any wire with a GREEN/ STRIPE (AC)"

Its working now. We used another tach source wire. We use a wire that reads 3-4 volts AC. Now time to tidy things up. Thanks for the help guys. It really made the install easier. We just got confused with the tach wire guide.

Anyone knows how to disable the auto start every hour? I noticed that it starts itself every hour and turns off after 10 mins. Theres no instructions in the manual about the auto start timer. Should i connect a thermistor sensor for the temperature or reset to factory default?
