2005 dodge ram remote start a/c problem

I have searched for this in this site, but most are closed.

I have a 2005 Dodge Ram and bought an Alarm from an ebay site. Before you guys rip me for buying an ebay alarm, let me say that the alarm works fine except for the A/C. The first time I installed it everything was fine, the A/C worked fine when doing remote start. But then, one day it stopped working when I did the remote start. I opened up the alarm unit and there was a strip of metal on the board that was burned off. I called the ebay guy and he explained that I had to use a relay. Fine, I installed the relay and soldered a new strip of metal. Again it was working fine. Within a week, it stopped working again. I opened it again and again it was burned off. I had read here before that you have to add fuses to ACC connections, but when I mentioned this to the ebay guy, he told that they are built in the board. I think he doesnt know what he is talking about. Can you guys clarify this for me?

I saw in a closed topic that you add a 15amp fuse to the 12volt and to the ACC from the alarm. Is this right? Thanks again.

Sorry its this one:

Thanks man.

I'll try it this weekend.

Twelvoltz,

Is it normal for the relay to get warm? Also, I had to solder another strip of metal, this time covered with heat protection. The ends that where soldered into the board where warm also. Is this also normal? I know there is power going through, but how much is enough before it burns again? Everything works fine now. I checked the connections you sent me and compared with the ebay guy and there were some differences. His for one, was not grounded and did not have a fuse going through from the 12 volt source to the relay.

PS- when I went to remove the board to seal it, i touched the onboard relays and they were also warm. I guess its normal. This is after I left the remote start on for 10 minutes with the A/C on.

Thanks again.
