Jeep Cherokee Question

Finnaly got my JDL-PK in the mail. Question are as follows Connector 1 Red12v-Red Purplestarter-yellow Red12v-pink/black Yellow ignition- dark blue Orange accessory-RED / black green accessory 2-BLACK/ orange Connector 2 black ground-ground purple tach-one of the injector wires grey-hood pin orange-brake wire(CANT ACTUALLY find this one) 12volt parking light wire(im using a test light for this intill i get a resistor(Should i just pick up a resisitor at radioshack) Brown lock-(do I connect this to ORANGE / black or orange purple or do i connect it to the green wire of JDL-PK? Green Unlock-(do i connecto this to pink/black of vehicle or do i connect to blue wire of JDL-Pk Rearm output(n/a) Right?? or do I need to do something with? Disarm(do i connect this to vehicle or do i connect it to the JDL pk or does it stay not connected?? Starter kill/armed output- leave not connected since im not doing a starter kill Purple external trigger-leave blank? Ground out when running-leave blank or connect to JDL pk? The JDL pk hooked into my autostart brain just fine, but im wondering what wires i have to connect to now, I have the instructions from the JDL pk, but I dont want to connect it till I know exactly what im doing. Sorry for so many questions, I just want to get it right before I hook the purple wire to the pin2 on the data bus wire.

:::orange-brake wire(CANT ACTUALLY find this one)::: Your looking for a WHITE/ tan wire at the brake switch. It also may be PURPLE / brown if it is a newer Grand Cherokee. :::12volt parking light wire(im using a test light for this intill i get a resistor(Should i just pick up a resisitor at radioshack)::: Note that the park lights in this vehicle are negative through a 1300 ohm resistor. I always just use a 1k ohm resistor. Also since that park light output is 12volt, you will need a relay to convert the positive to a negative. :::Brown lock-(do I connect this to ORANGE / black or orange purple or do i connect it to the green wire of JDL-PK?::: Assuming this is a negative output, you would connect it to the green wire on the JDL-PK. :::Green Unlock-(do i connecto this to pink/black of vehicle or do i connect to blue wire of JDL-Pk::: Assuming this is a negative output, you would connect it to the blue wire on the JDL-PK. :::Rearm output(n/a) Right?? or do I need to do something with?::: Shouldn't need this.. :::Disarm(do i connect this to vehicle or do i connect it to the JDL pk or does it stay not connected??::: The JDL-PK will take care of the factory alarm you don't need this wire for anything. :::Starter kill/armed output- leave not connected since im not doing a starter kill::: Yup.. :::Purple external trigger-leave blank?::: Yup.. :::Ground out when running-leave blank or connect to JDL pk?::: This should go to the brown wire on the JDL-PK. Good luck, Mike

awesome, just wanted to make sure, now im golden, everything works except I cant seem to program the tach, im using a autostart 2 way system. It says if the parking lights flash 5 times you need to program the tach, so i put the hood up started the vehicle, and waited. Then I turned the vehicle off and tryed to remote start, the vehicle then blinked 5 times.' For autostart they say to program tach, put the hood up, and let the vehicle run for a few minutes. The tach should auto program I am using the WHITE/ blue wire on the front most injector, i didn't check for AC current on that, so maybe I should do that? Any further help would be appreciated. Thanks

Ok, tested the tach wire when i have it set to AC 200, it says 30.0 when i change it to ac 500 it says 30. These don't seem to be around 1.8 ac voltage? I dont want to start probing other wires. Any input?

what yr model? cherokee or grand cherokee?Houston,TX

2001 Grand Cherokee Laredo

*6 The 4.7L motor has a separate coil for each cylinder. Go to any coil and use any wire that is NOT dk. GREEN/ orange. On the 4.0L motor use any of the tan/stripe wires at the coil pack, or go to one of the fuel injector and use the wire that is NOT dk. GREEN/ orange. btw, what unit are you unit?Houston,TX

I understand that I need to goto one of the fuel injectors, like i did, I used an UNCOMMON wire. I am using a Autostart Two way lcd unit. (autostartusa.com)

I did a manual tach learn and that worked perfect. My problem now is with the JDL pk, i start the car with the remote, but i leave the key in the cylinder, it works perfect. I take it out and the vehicle trys to start 3 times then quits. The security light blinks when I do this. So as far as programming it heres what I do 1 key 5 seconds on then remove 2 key on, then wait till security light begins to flash (and sound) remove key jump 12volt and ignitoin wire, car makes a normal sound (does not start), the security light will stop flashing Then turn on for 3 seconds then off Remove Key. Remove Jumped wire. Start vehicle it quits after 3 times. I am holding the screw side of the jdl pk toward the ignition barrel.

I think i found a little problem, The security light will stop flashing when I hold the JDLpk unit up, but it will not come on again for 3 seconds then off again.
