well you should always test your wires with a DMM.

Yep I did that.

So now its all done. Beleive it or not I still never found the PCM! I tied into the door locks through the driver's door using a 100 and a 1.5k resistor. I had to shorten the pulse length for the lock sequence, because it was too long and putting a strain on the battery. I don't like the fact that the avistart's remote only uses 1 button for the lock/unlock. The factory one had them seperate and also acted differently. I considered wiring relays to the old key fob (hence leaving it in the car somewhere) to get those features back!

On lock, the horn would honk and on unlock the interior lights would turn on. I miss both of those features. I know that there is probably a way to do it but i had a hard enough 3 day experience with this. I'm sure that if i ever do it again it would go quicker.

I guess if I tapped the lock wire prior to the resistor and ran it through a relay hooked up to the horn it would get back the honk on lock. For the lights, unlock before resistor with a timed latch through a relay? Not a major factor tho.

Would love to have dimming interrior lights upon closing door too. Sounds like that could be accomplished simply with a capacitor across the feed? Simple discharging RC circuit.

Anyway, thanks to all who helped. I think I found someplace I'll call home for a while.

BTW, there was a second accessoy wire that I had to hook up to allow the blower to run. If I remember correctly, it was a black brown wire in the ignition harness. Hooked it up to 2nd acc, and works fine. The AC button remains latched from last use, so I didn't have to use any relay or toggle to turn it on, just had to have been on previously.
