2006 Dodge Caravan alarm/remote start

I'm having troubles locating a valid tach wire.. I tried the blue/green at what I think is the coil but it doesn't seem to be working. It's the 3.3 liter. I don't see any blue/orange or blue/tan wires. Any suggestions? Thanks much

Found the tach... Got a problem.... I can remote start fine.. The accessory powers up (I get radio / heat / etc).. When I put the key in and turn it to ON the accessory stuff all shuts off. I lose radio / heater / etc and I can't get them back on.. I try starting it with just a key and the accessory never powers up.. What the????

I just got done installing a Crimestopper RS999FM in a 2006 Dodge Caravan. I can remote start fine.. The accessory powers up (I get radio / heat / etc).. When I put the key in and turn it to ON and hit the brake the accessory stuff all shuts off. I lose radio / heater / etc and I can't get them back on..I try starting it with just a key and the accessory never powers up.. Any ideas??? Thanks a lot.

Did you do any kind of stuff with resistors or relays or any of that?All you need up there is constant, ignition, and accessory. Get rid of any connections to the PURPLE / brown resistance wire, and it'll work fine anyway.

Yea, I used a relay with resistor for the second starter... Wired it as follows:

85 ground while running from the remote starter

86 from starter wire off remote start 87 ground 30 to violet/brown (second starter) in ign harness (180ohm resistor in line).

Is that not correct?

Thanks for the help!!!

ok, how about this one. 2006 Caravan. got the remote start all in and everything works but it just starts and dies. Got the 180 ohm resistor in. I can put a key in the igniton and it doesn't make any difference.    Any help?

Sounds like the tach.. Mine was doing the same thing using the "smart tachless".. I hooked up the tach and it worked gravy.. Did you hook up the tach wire? Well except for my problem above...

Really, I am using smart learn, it is tachless. I will try that now.

That's what it is I'm willing to bet.. You have the 3.3 liter? If so... Here is a picture of where it's at.. It's the blue/tan wire.

There is no ACC wire in that caravan. Atleast in the one I just finished, Thanks by the way. All you need is the pink with white for ignition and the starter wire. As well as the PURPLE / brown for your negative 180 ohm start. When the car starts, the heater and radio automatically turn on.
