Hi guys.
Just installed a Bulldog 500 Deluxe into a 2002 Dodge Dokota, everything works great, the Bulldog 500 seems to be a nice unit, great range, the only thing that I did not install is an Anti-Grind feature, I have found information on wiring the relay for an Anti rind feature, but i`m not sure which wires from the Bulldog 500 to use for the Anti Grind feature, could some-one please help.
T.I.A.

You can use the H7/8 Lt GREEN/ Black wire. Make sure to set it for Start Status. Your relay should wired as follows:
85 = H7/8 + anode side of diode
86 = +12V + cathode side of diode
30 = Starter wire motor side
87a = Starter wire key side
87 = no connection
This information is provided only as a reference.
All circuits should be verified with a digital multi-meter prior to making any connections.

What you show will work fine for anti-grind. 

You could also use the blue/black Ignition3 wire (H7/1) for the anit-grind control without having to change programming.  You may also connect the orange ground when armed (H7/10) to the same control wire, giving you a starter kill along with anti-grind.   

If you choose to add the starter kill functionality, and there is nothing else wired to either the control wire of your choice or the orange ground when armed, you can directly connect these to each other, and to your relay.   If you are using either of these wires for another function (i.e., bypass, sensor enable, etc.) then you would use a diode (such as a 1N4001)  in each line and connect the banded end of the diode to the Bulldog signal, and then tie both unbanded ends of the diodes together and also to the relay coil.

I just realized you show the relay tied to +12V.    You may want to tie this to the IGN wire of your remote start.  This will avoid current draw while the car is off--this is particularly important if you do decide to add starter kill.

To be clear, you tied the relay to IGN instead of 12V, correct?  You would not want to connect 12V to IGN...

Yes, I guess I didnt make myself very clear, the 12v Constant in the image I uploaded was tied into the ignition wire not 12v..
Thanks again..
