On  A  '99 Dodge Cararvan,I have installed Crimestopper alarm/remote start  with aftermarket door  actuators. I installed one for the hatch also. 

My question is, how can I get the hatch to unlock  by the trunk release,but lock with all doors? I have wired the actuators for drivers door priority.

Thanks for the help.

The hatch will lock with all other doors if you have power door locks. No need to install separate locking mechanism for the hatch.

Like Velocity said, the hatch should look with all your doors b/c they're in the same circuit.

To unlock your hatch only with the trunk release button, you need two normally closed relays to separate the truck actuator from the rest of them and when the relays are triggered, one wire should have +12V and the other should be ground to make it unlock separtely (you probably have to test to see when wire needs +12V and which one needs ground).  Of course, you need to hook up the trunk release output from the alarm to the relays.

sorry about the confusion.  i don't even get what i mean after i read what i wrote.  haha.

Here it is again.

Add 2 normally closed relays to the truck actuator.  Normally closed meaning after hooking up the relays, the trunk actuator should still be working with other actuators (I assume you understand how to hook up a relay).  When the relays are trigged, one should have +12V output while the other should show ground.  Then have the relays trigger wires connected to the trunk release output wire from the alarm.

This way, when you press on the trunk release button on the remote, the relays should isolate your trunk actuator while making it unlocks.

Hope I explain it better this time.
