I have an 01 Accord LX V6 and am trying to install a trunk release kit, but i cant find the trunk release wire from the alarm. Basicaly i want to use the option button on my alarm to remote open the trunk. If anybody knows which wire it is or has a wiring diagram it would help alot

Do you want to find the option wire from the alarm or the wire in the car that releases the trunk? Depends on the alarm... but a lot of alarms use a purple wire as the option. if your option is not being used right now, that wire should have nothing attached to it. as far as the trunk release wire in the car, look in the trunk to find the wire to see what color it is. then look for that same color wire in the fuse box and test it to make sure that it is the right wire. dont forget to use a relay, the alarms output is probably not strong enough.

the wire should be WHITE/ red + pol. behind drivers side fuse box....... although I cant remember 100% this should be right . or try at the keyless module or the factory alarm plug. are you installing a stand-alone trunk release /keyless entry system ? if so be aware of the factory alarm controls

i've looked everywhere behind the driverside fuse box and tried all of the RED / white wires but i cant seem to find the right one. I am trying to add a trunk popper and make the option key on the remote activate it

if i tap into the RED / white wire is it connected to the remote or is that just for an internal switch. by the way i am installing a universal trunk popper and am trying to tap into the alarm option but i need the wiring diagram for the alarm so i can find which pin/wire is connected to the option feature.
