Is up to the installer to test all wires with a DMM whenever possible.

Luis, your last reply didnt come through. Please post.

Also, I went back through 12volt and found this:

https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/detail.asp?info=alarm&year=1988-89&make=Merkur&model=Scorpio&ID=18440&type=Alarm

This one says unlock is reverse polarity. How is that wired into an alarm?

go to the door lock section and see how to wire relays to give you a negative trigger Every where I look I see car as having negative locks that require a strong ground
