NOTES:
*1 Keyless models use positive trigger for lock, and 5-wire for unlock.
Can also find wires at the central timer module to the right side of the
steering column, lock is ORANGE / green, unlock is pink/green.
*2 To avoid dome delay, use tan for the drivers door and BLACK/ lt. blue
for the passenger door. Both wires are located at the central timer module
to the right side of the steering column. Use both wires and diode isolate
each.
*3 Arm is negative trigger thru a 644 ohm resistor. Disarm is negative
trigger through a 1.5K (1500) ohm resistor. MUST use relays.
*4 Diesel tach wire is gray/black and diesel wait to start wire is
ORANGE / black (-) 'see direct fax document #1090'. Both wires are located on
the center of the firewall. There are two black plugs, the wires are in
the top plug without the white insert. The tach wire can also be found at
the ECM on the passenger side firewall in connector C-1, pin 8. If using
the org/blk for wait to start causes a shifting or cruise control problem
then use a pulse timer relay instead, refer to directfax #1091 for wiring
information.
*5 This wire requires a high current negative, must use relay.

Here ya go....and don't forget you gotta hook up the wait to start bulb to the remote start....depending on how new the Avital is, it might already have it set up for diesel....almost all of the New DEI alarms do...if not all of them...read the manual, it will tell you what to do...any other questions..post, and I or one of the other guys will answer...

Goodluck!!!

I've got everything install just need this :    

  DOOR TRIGGER |yellow *2            | -  |headlight switch or DKP  

 *2 To avoid dome delay, use tan for the drivers door and BLACK/ lt. blue
for the passenger door. Both wires are located at the central timer module
to the right side of the steering column. Use both wires and diode isolate
each.

what does DKP stand for, and i believe i'm looking for a wire that goes from 12v to - ground. let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Alan

DKP stands for driver's kick panel, and if it is negative trigger, then yes, it will go from 12v to ground.

Always use your meter:)
