Ok, I just discovered something. I tried connecting it to the the pink wire with the blue stripe on it, and it works, but it works in the opposite that I want. I have to have the door open before I turn the ignition off and remove the key for the radio to say on....then, to turn the radio off, I have to close the. How do I reverse that????

Ok, I finally got the whole situation resolved. I was able to find the (-) Door Trigger for the RF door (pnk/blue) and got that hooked up fine. I was not able to find the (-)Door Trigger for the LF door, so I just spliced a wire to switch at the door, and it works fine now.

It was working reversed because I had the wrong relays; I went and purchased the correct ones, and now it works correctly. Thanks everyone for all of your help.

heman,

Aways test your wires with a multimeter instead of simply connecting them blindly. Doing so can cause expensive damage, especially on newer vehicles with air bags and such. For future reference, check the wires going to the dome light, even if the dome light has a fade out feature, all you need is the instant door trigger. On newer cars with the lights near the bottom of the door panel that come on when you open the door, you can also test the wires at the bulb plug, and see what color they are. Then test those color wires coming in from the door boot to verify them.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
