I am installing a R/S on a 2001 duango w/electric lock and factory alarm. Where do I install the the following wires Green, blue, ORANGE / black. On the car lock and unlock is the same wire so do I hook the green and the blue to the same wire? The instuctions say the orange /black wire goes to the data port on pin 2 wire color ORANGE / black. My pin 2 is purple / YELLOW do I connect to this one?

The remote start that I puchased is a Directed Electronics model 24927. This R/S has remote keyless entry. When I purchased this I thought it would be ready to install. The package included a DVD that had very little helpful information on it. When I got into the package found out there was more parts to buy and was not near as easy as to install as the package made it sound. So I am into the project and now need some advise.

The 457C that I was told that is needed is a DEI brand to be used on a DEI Remote Start.

Just installed a DEI remote start # 24927 with a DEI 457C data bus interface and a DEI 555C interface module. The vehicle is a 2001 dodge Durango. The horn will work, the park lights will flash but nothing else works. The momentary button will also flash. There is nothing in the kit to plug into the sensor port. This is the first time I have installed a R/S so any advice would be helpful. Today I was on the phone with tech support for 1/2 hour and then got cut off before I could talk to anyone.

Hmm... Does the ign ckts fire up at all? Check the hood pin and the neutral safty [toggle switch] make sure it's grounded and the hood pin isn't Its a pretty basic install... make sure your 2nd ign is hooked up or it will pop a code.. and ya use the right resistors for your door locks....

Thanks for the reply. No the ignition does not fire. The hood pin is unhooked... the brake wire is hooked up...the 2nd ignition wire is connected...for the door locks I used the DEI 457C data bus interface (that is hooked up to the data wire on the diagnostic connector.Here is a list of the connections that I made if anyone knows the exact wires on the durango:

Remote start module

Heavy Gauge wires: Green-ignition 2 Pink-constant 12V+ Blue-ignition1 white-accessory1 & relay for acc2 Pink-constant12V+ Yellow-starter Black-ground (I am confident these wires are hooked up correct)

6-pin connector: yellow-park light + BROWN / wht-blu/wht on 457C Violet-hood pin Orange-brake wire WHITE/ black-blue activation- on 555c interface module RED / white-not used

8-pin connector: green-not used blue-horn RED / black-not used YELLOW /GREEN-not used GREEN/ wht-not used yellow/brown-not used brown & gray/black-driver door and passenger door trigger (I put a diode on each trigger to allow current flow to the R/S module

3 pin connector: yellow/red-green on 457C interface whit/red-blue on 457C inteface

momentary switch: plugged in and the light flashes

antenna: plugged in and it recieves a signal to turn on the park lights and honk the horn

sensor port: empty

the fused light flash jumper: closest to the end of the module

457C data bus interface

red-12V+ black-ground ORANGE / black-purple / YELLOW wire,pin2 in diagnostic connector

555C interface module

red-12V+ blue-WHITE/ black in 6 pin connector

The Durango will now remote start. The door lock & unlock buttons will arm or unarm the security but the doors will not lock. Also the panic button does not work. Anyone have any suggestions?

Also the remote will only work if I am within 100 feet of the durango. I mounted the antenna verticle behind the rearview mirror and am wondering if this is the correct place to mount

in order for it to lock/unlock, it is a 1 wire system you need to use resistors, and find the correct resistance for lock and un lock, use a multimeter and measure the resistance when lock, and when unlock and get resistors to mimic that.
