Hi, I have a basic car alarm. I currently have 2 Sensor plugged on it. a 2 stage shock sensor and a Proxymity sensor.

I have hook the proximity using a Diode. My question is, How many sensor I can Add on the same alarm? I was thinking to add another shock and proximity to protect my rear of my car, witch is less sensitive then my front !!

i dunno how many you can off the one port is it.

you can put lots on the one port but probably best to start powering them seperate dunno how much power the brain provides on the sensor port

Well I'd say test the sensor wires with a DIMM to see the voltage (not a test light). IF you have the diode cathode pointed towards the brain you got another layer of protection when testing (got a bit paranoid lateley with wires, I know that the DIMM should not cause any issues but still).

(1) Kenwood Excelon Head Unit KDC-X589 (24 bit Burr Brown DAC, 3 X 4 volt RCA).

(1) RF Punch 250A2 - running the components.

(1) Hifonics 6.5" Atlas Components (18db crossovers).
