First off. I'm working with a 2008 Dodge Ram that has a TIPM module to control most functions.

I installed a remote start/alarm combo(code Alarm srt-9000) 2yrs ago. Haven't had any issue's with the truck. I called up Tech support where I purchase it from (auto alarm pro) because my 2way remote stopped working and also because I didn't want my headlights to be active at all during lock/unlock or when the alarm was going off(HID's).

Well long story short. The technician(owner) told me what to do as far as eliminating the headlights which was pull out a resistor that they placed inline on the parking sense wire and move that wire to another location and also move the module fuse to - polarity from +polarity. Everything seemed good because I really didn't drive it but rather tested remote functions is all.
Well, today I went out to drive it and I had No gas guage reading, No directionals, No wiper blades, no headlight controls and the heads and parking lights come on with the truck on acc and running.
I've checked all the fuses, I've put things back the way they were BEFORE all changes made yesterday and still no luck.
I unhooked the entire aftermarket interface and still no luck.
I unplugged the battery to rese things..no luck.
I don't know wth the problem is other than a bad aftermarket interface and I hope the TIPM didn't get fried somehow although I don't believe that's the case since everything does function if the alarm is activated.
if anyone has experienced No gas guage, no directionals or 4-ways and no headlight controls.... Please give some input. I figured I'd post this anyways since the place is closed for the Holiday weeekend.

I remember another post about this same problem a while back regarding a stereo installation instead. Here's the link

I'm not getting ANY error codes, plus my headlights do work when the key is in ACC and run, but I have no control over them.

The only thing I did was move the parking light sense wire to the actual parking light ouput and reverse polarity as I was instructed. Truck runs and drives perfectly fine.
