I am installing an alarm with a hood pin trigger, an unltrasound sensor, and a microwave sensor. The alarm only has one 12V (-) instant trigger input wire. The instructions don't mention diodes but I read elsewhere on this site that it's best isolate each (-) trigger wire with a blocking diode.

What should I ask for when I go to the radio/alarm shop? I suppose there are different kinds of diodes and that they have different Amps/Voltage specifications.

Thanks for the help,

Just ask for diodes, they come in different amps, but any will suffice. You can get them at Radio Shack.

Do it right the first time
