I need sone help with this one. I am installing an alarm in a 2005 kenworth truck it has a sleeper the rear door on the box is the double doors the main door has a normaly open trigger on it . My problem is that the customer wants the alarm to be triggered if someone was to go under the truck and cut that single door trigerwire that i have going to the back of the truck 25ft away.. does anyone know of a way to wire the system so that if that single wire is cut it will also set off the alarm..im using a two way alarm sistem ... Thanks

You have plenty of battery power. You could have that switch latch a relay and if the wire is cut it will drop out the power to the relay and trigger the alarm.
