The dimmer wire is gray behind the radio. But there is also a brown wire going to the radio. Use the brown wire -KarTuneMan already explained it above. It's OK to use the dimmer wire, but it will be affected by the position of the dimmer switch. Why have that?-Do it right. As I recall, you have to remove the radio in that car to access the ignition wires comfortably anyway. There you go!

Convert a Negative Output to a Positive Output

If you have a switch or an alarm or keyless entry that has a negative output that you wish to use to switch a device that requires 12V+ such as a horn, dome light, parking lights, head lights, hatch release, etc., wire a relay as shown below to convert the negative output (trigger) to a positive output. 2002 Alero, Prostart remote start - Page 2 -- posted image.

I have a 2002 Olds Alero 4dr, automatic (3.4 litre) transmission with Passlock.

Currently have Passlock 2003 and Prostart 3360 remote starter (canadian tire) installed. I have read through A LOT of posts on this regarding hooking up rear defrost to remote starter and I think I am more confused now. The posts show different ways to install and some talk about timers and the threads seems to wander all over the place.

What I would like to do is have my rear defrost come on when I start the car with my remote starter, operate on its timer as usual, and still have the functionality to operate it manually when I am in the car. It would also be nice to have the option to turn this feature off and on so it doesnt do it in the summer if I turn on the car to activate the A/C.

I would really appreciate any help and advice.

Got everything installed OK. I'm just waiting for a relay to come in the mail to hook up the trunk release. Thanks everyone.

The trunk release is (-) at the driver's kick panel and doesn't need a relay to trigger.
